KISS-Ware 2.0 software and programming tools imports PCB assembly data from a variety of sources; assists programmer in development of a soldering program to drive KISS selective soldering systems. Uses one or more inputs, including Gerber, DXF, digital or scanned board images, to generate PCB dimensions and display X/Y data points that will become the fluxing and soldering targets. Enables program editing on the PCB image. Automatically generates machine commands required for processing the job. GUI highlights path identifying everything that has been programmed. Can highlight desired items to be edited. Typical programming time reportedly 5 min. Other command features include editing on the actual assembly image, step-by-step prompts, and global edits.
