A simple script to create a v-scored panel of a KiCad board.
My original copy of this script is depreciated. Please use this instead: https://github.com/sej7278/kicad-panelizer
To use:
- Ensure you have KiCad 5.1.2+ installed
- Clone script to an appropriate location
- Configure options
- Change NUM_X and NUM_Y to the number of copies of the board in the x (horizontal) and y (vertical) direction.
- (optional) set v-score parameters to what you wish.
- Save script
- Open a terminal and
cd
to the directory of the script - Run it with python 3:
python3 panelizer.py /path/to/source_board.kicad_pcb
- Panelized output will be saved to the same directory as the source board, with the name
{sourceboardname}_panelized.kicad_pcb
