The latest TARGET 3001! V18 PCB-POOL edition includes an integrated 3D-MID (mechatronic integrated device) function enabling schematic creation and the ability to place circuitry on already created 3D step file data. This is the first free electronic CAD software for designing electronic circuits on three-dimensional circuit carriers, the company said.

Beta LAYOUT produces and sells printed circuit board (PCB) prototypes, high-tech PCBs and small series according to the PCB-POOL shared-cost principle, as well as 3D MID prototypes, laser-cut SMD stencils, front panels including laser engraving and color printing, 3D prints and prototypes for collision detection.
