Re: suggest new feature: Arc-shaped Edge Plating #pcb-manufacture


 

I'm a bit unclear on what you are asking for.? Plating is done in holes on a PCB rather than edges.? There's no special information in the Gerber files to indicate plating.? That is done in a separate drawing and likely a data file, not entirely sure.? If you want to plate an edge, that is something you would need to discuss with your PCB fab house, I think.? They would need to construct the board with a routed hole where you want the plating, then do a second route to separate the "extra" PCB material leaving a plated edge.

Unless I am wrong about this.? Can any explain how plating an edge of a PCB would be communicated to the fab house??
