Zuken Translator
Quickly and accurately convert data designed in other ECAD tools
into the Zuken design environment (CR-8000, CR-5000, etc.),
ensuring efficient migration with no data loss.
Supported EDA Tools
Reliably convert PCB data between major ECAD tools for efficient data
integration,
even across heterogeneous design environments.

Process
Zuken Translator accurately and efficiently converts library data used in existing ECAD tools into Zuken's Library format. Symbols, footprints, and part-related information are kept identical to the original data, so they can be used immediately in the Zuken environment right after conversion.
Zuken Translator accurately transfers the component placement information defined in the original ECAD design to Zuken data. Detailed information such as the placement location and orientation of components is maintained identically to the original, so the design can move smoothly to the next stage without any separate layout modification after conversion.
Design rules defined in existing ECAD tools—clearance, trace width, via, net class, and more—are converted into and applied to Zuken's Design Rule system. Even constraint data that never appears on the drawing yet governs Routing and Fill is carried over, so you can continue Routing on rule-compliant data without having to redefine or recheck a single rule.
Zuken Translator accurately converts routing paths and copper fill areas from existing ECAD designs into the Zuken environment without data loss. With the rules transferred in the previous step satisfied, the design intent and electrical connectivity of routing and copper fill areas are preserved, minimizing the need for additional modifications or rework.
