GBR_RIP is a raster image processor designed to convert the Gerber photoplotter format (RS274X) into a bitmap for use by imaging and machine vision and inspection equipment (AOI). GBR_RIP includes an executable wrapper around the DLL; either which enables the OEM to completely embed the raster engine within his own code.
GBR_RIP is extremely fast and robust; it is currently used by over a dozen OEMs in applications such as laser photoplotters, LED/Laser direct-to-board imagers and PCB/substrate inspection systems.
