I am a lead developer for the KiCad open source EDA software suite. I would like to add support for the IPC-2581 standard to our software.
Koh Young, measurement-based inspection solutions provider, joined the IPC-2581 Consortium this week to support the adoption and use of IPC-2581 (DPMX) for design data transfer to machines on factory floor to improve efficiency and reduce costs for electronics manufacturers. Using IPC-DPMX (IPC-2581) with IPC-CFX will deliver engineering (design) data directly to machines to streamline the process…
I am a Senior Systems Analyst at Mitutoyo America Corporation, a global manufacturer of metrology systems. I believe that the IPC-2581 standard will benefit the whole PCB design and supply chain industry, thus, I support IPC-2581 standard and encourage others to do the same. This is my personal opinion, not on the behalf of my…

A wonderful short article written by Lou Shababy, a PCB Design lead at Eaton Lighting Controls Division, in this month’s issue of PCD&F Magazine. In this article Lou talks about why IPC-2581 is a better format to use. Besides the hand-off benefits, he argues that since there is intelligence in the data package, DFM checks…
At this year’s APEX show we will explore new opportunities to expand the format. There will be user group and committtee meetings and a Buzz Session at this year’s APEX event. Be sure not to miss it. How IPC-2581 Enables Industry 4.0 Tuesday, Jan 29 — 3:30 PM to 5:00 PM | Buzz Session 2…
Sierra Circuits also talked to Michael Ford, who is leading the IPC-1782 committee, about the use of IPC-2581 in Industry 4.0 and IPC-CFX. Michael talks about how IPC-2581 provides the Digital Product Model that is needed to implement a smart factory using IPC-CFX standard. Click here to view the interview
Sierra Circuits talked to Hemant Shah, IPC-2581 Consortium Chairman about advantages of IPC-2581 over traditional Gerber based PCB design data hand-off to manufacturing at PCB West 2018. The interview and discussion goes in who is using IPC-2581 today, why companies should use IPC-2581 and much more. Click here to view the interview
