Require Panelize Help

This help window explains when to choose Require Panelize during your online PCB quote.

What does Require Panelize mean?

Select Require Panelize if you want our engineers to panelize your single-board Gerber files in our standard production way.

When should you choose this option?

  • Your Gerber files are for individual boards only
  • You want us to create the production panel for you
  • You do not require a special customer-defined panel layout

When should you NOT choose this option?

  • Your Gerber files already contain panel array data
  • You need a special panel arrangement
  • You need a customer-defined panel method, spacing, breakaway style, or layout rule
