Description

Engineers at leading electronics firms around the globe utilize Quilter for their design needs. Fully compatible with your pre-existing designs and libraries, Quilter ensures that all completed projects are returned in the original file format for easy inspection, modification, and export. To begin, simply design your schematic with your preferred ECAD application, such as Altium or KiCAD, and upload both your schematic and an empty board file. Quilter automatically identifies the relationships between components, allowing you to define any design constraints for your board with ease. We rigorously validate tolerances against top fabrication houses to ensure reliability. Quilter evaluates numerous candidates and confirms that every design meets design rule checks (DRCs). Once you have reviewed the options, you can select your preferred design and download the necessary files for fabrication and testing. Unlike traditional auto routers, Quilter operates more like a human designer, effectively managing all PCB design elements, including the routing of traces, placement of components, board stackup management, and the generation of custom pours. This innovative software makes the entire design process more intuitive and streamlined, enhancing productivity for engineers.
