Ensuring Your PCB Design is Ready for Manufacturing — Without Surprises

At >KARVI INTERCONNECTS, we offer expert CAM (Computer-Aided Manufacturing) validation services to ensure your PCB designs are error-free, production-ready, and fully aligned with your fabrication vendor's capabilities. We act as a quality checkpoint between design and fabrication, helping you avoid costly errors, re-spins, and delays.

What is CAM Validation?

CAM validation is the critical process of reviewing and verifying all manufacturing output files (Gerber, drill, ODB++, etc.) before they are released to the PCB fabricator. It ensures that your board can be fabricated accurately and meets all vendor-specific and industry-standard requirements.

Our CAM Validation Process Includes

• Layer alignment and registration check
• Copper-to-copper and copper-to-edge clearance
• Drill-to-copper, drill size, and annular ring verification
• Soldermask, silkscreen, and paste layer checks
• Stack-up consistency and impedance validation
• Material and prepreg validation per vendor specs
• Trace width, spacing, and via compliance
• SMT pad design and stencil optimization
• Panelization, fiducials, and tooling hole checks
• Netlist comparison (Gerber vs design)
• Detection of shorts, opens, acid traps, copper slivers
• Assembly file validation (BoM, Pick & Place)
• Orientation, polarity, and footprint mapping

Benefits of CAM Validation

• Eliminate fabrication and assembly delays
• Avoid unexpected vendor rejections
• Reduce risk of field failures and costly re-spins
• Gain confidence your board is 100% ready for manufacturing
• Speed up production by getting it right the first time
