Read-In
The first stage of the InCAM process is automatic input, run from the Read-In subsystem. Auto input automatically imports customer design data into InCAM and transforms it into a single job file, with steps, layers and graphical data. Auto input supports a wide range of input formats and syntaxes, allowing you to accommodate a diverse customer base.

1-up Editor
The 1-up Editor allows you to view and edit board layers while providing selection tools and advanced functions, such as copper area calculation, automatic pad substitution, automatic BGA/SMD recognition, teardrop creation, layer compare and more. This module also enables the possibility to perform basic manual panelization. For automatic panelization, see the Automatic Panelization module.

|
Design Analyzer
The Design Analyzer allows you to review designs before, during and after tooling, facilitating interactive graphic control over all pre-production engineering parameters. The Design Analyzer offers layer-specific analyses.

|
Output
The Output subsystem prepares job data for output to a range of machines and systems and converts layers into transferable output formats according to user-defined instructions. You can verify the success of the output by generating a graphic postview of the output file or comparing the postview file to the original board layer, using Compare Layers. Then check that the two are identical.

Interface package The InCAM Interface package is a seat with reduced functionality, compared to a full graphic editor seat, and can be used for the following purpose :
- To serve as an interface between InCAM and Orbotech LP/DI/VF equipment from Orbotech – when sold to a customer that does not have Frontline CAM.
- To be used as a seat that sits in the plotting or drilling department and is used solely for the purpose of preparing and outputting the data to these machines

Film optimizer The goal of the Genesis Film Optimization Process is to add as many layers as possible to the least number of output film layers which are produced specifically for films creation. The film layers created can be created from layers selected from various jobs or a specific job only; the job layers are labeled, added to an output film layer and output to a specific file format which is used to create films. click to enlarge

Drawing & Dimensioning editor The Drawing & Dimensioning editor is a module that allows you to create and print dimensions on any layer and print them into a PDF document or to a printer.

PCB Numbering In order to identify the individual PCB boards on the production panel or within the delivery panel it is often required to add a unique identification number to each PCB or delivery panel in the production panel. The PCB Numbering Editor adds a unique index number to each PCB on the panel which is written as a text features inside every PCB layer image in the panel. If the panel contains nested steps, the numbering can either be done flat (each PCB will have a unique index in the production panel) or nested (each PCB will have a unique index number in the delivery panel
