This document provides a comprehensive guide for manufacturing designs created in Autodesk Eagle using Aisler. It details the preparation steps for project submission, including design rule checks, copper filling, board outline requirements, and parts addition, as well as the option to include SMD stencils. Ultimately, it encourages users to iterate on their designs for optimal results before proceeding to checkout.

Overview

3. Prepare your project
for the fab

4. Design Rule Check

5. Important
Design rules are not design guidelines!
They are the absolute minimal limit of what
your manufacturer can produce.
If possible, don’t go down to that limit.
This will make your design a lot more robust.
Check AISLER’s design rules here.
Check your manufacturer’s design rules!

6. Check your Design in Autodesk Eagle with AISLER’s DRC file

7. Select your aisler_go_2layer.dru file and click “Check”

8. Copper Filling

9. In Eagle, right click on the area that needs to be filled and
select Ratsnest. This should fill the required areas with
copper.

10. Board Outlines

11. When you draw your board outlines (board dimension layer) make sure they are
lines not rectangles. Otherwise it will not be rendered or manufactured properly.
Pro Tip: If you are using a template, e.g. for an arduino shield, you should already be
covered

12. Upload your project
to AISLER

13. Start a project by uploading your Eagle file.
Pro Tip: If you want to be quick, navigate to https://aisler.net/p/new.
This will create a new project.

14. Proof your design

15. AISLER renders manufacturing images so that you can proof your design.
Not happy with how things are rendered? Repeat step 1 to 3 until you are. It
doesn't cost anything to iterate, and it helps you get your project
manufactured with ease.

16. Setup a repository
and project name

17. Just create or use an existing repository and create a new project.
AISLER will try to suggest a name for you, but feel free to change it
to match your flavour. This is the final step and you will have a
documented project that you can let AISLER manufacture for you.

18. Adding parts to your order

19. You can choose between uploading a schematic or adding your parts manually.

20. Uploading a schematic is the easiest way to document your
bill of material (BOM).
First, on your project's page, click "Details" under the "Bill of
Materials" section.
Then, on the upper right-hand corner, under "Import
schematic drawing" hit the "SELECT FILE" button.
Finally chose the right schematic file from your computer and
click "open".

21. Bill of Materials on aisler.net

22. This option takes a little more effort, but is totally doable as well.
1. First, on your project's page, click "Details" under the "Bill of Materials"
section.
2. Then, on the upper right-hand corner, hit the "ADD PART MANUALLY"
button.
3. Search for the part you want to add to your project and choose one from
the list shown.
4. Repeat step 2 and 3 until all the necessary parts have been added.

24. Adding a stencil for SMD
soldering

25. Since you uploaded an Eagle design, we will also show you a rendering of our
Stellar Stencil.
You can easily add the stencil to your order with a click of a button.

26. Just flip the Stellar Stencil switch and the stencil will be included
in your order.

27. Now all there is left to do is to press Checkout & Pay.
You’ll soon hold your own projects in your hands! Hurray!
