Philipp’s Computing Blog - Silhouette Cameo-2

We bought this cutting plotter at the university to produce solder mask stencils to apply solder paste in the right places on PCBs. We also plan to create glue dispensing masks with it to help integrating our particle detector, where “to integrate” is jargon for “to construct”.

Here are my findings about how it works, how to drive it with free software and how to create neat stencils:

Protocol

The plotter speaks a dialect of the GPGL language (an older reference of the formats to be found here: GPGL (and HPGL) Reference (2011-07-23)). Many particularities have been found out by reverse engineering the communication protocol and as a result there is a collection of Silhouette Cameo Commands by fablabnbg.

The files the plotter can read directly via its own USB port have the file extension .studio3 (in contrast to the .gsp format that Silhouette cutting plotters with an SD-card slot understood).

        subject: Silhouette Cameo at library
        
        I learned of your meetings at the library from Derrick and that you may be the only folks using the Cameo.  I am hoping to use the Silhouette Cameo for paper crafting and would like to see how you are using it.
        
        Would it be appropriate to come to one of your library meetings?  I have the next one as Sept. 28, 6-8:30
