This image below shows the export options I use - I do not know exactly which of these are crucial. Now hit the "Plot button" in the lower right. Make sure the "Back" and "Front" layers are selected.This origin MUST be placed at least 2.54 mm below and left of all of the components, traces, board outline, etc (though not those blue dimension labels) otherwise CopperCAM will misalign the layers.
Click on a point somewhere below and to the left of the components in the above image. You should be faced with a routed board, all ready to be exported.Ĭlick on the button "Offset adjust for drill and place files" in the bottom right (circled in the above image). It does, however, seem to output instructions that the Roland mill understands, with some restrictions that will be discussed below.ĭownload the example Kicad project from here, open "WS2812B_breakout.pro" using Kicad, and then open the PCB editor. Most of this page will be devoted to managing its eccentricities.

I am using Kicad purely because that is what I am familiar with.ĬopperCAM is a very temperamental piece of software as regards importing Gerbers and drill files. It should be easy to substitute Kicad for Eagle in the above.
