How the Logic Tracer Board Works

 

✷ A Digitizing Board is an electrical-magnetic board and pointer (pen or cursor) that can send highly accurate XY points to a computer.

 

✷ The board is about an inch thick, contains an electrical grid underneath with a hard Formica surface.

 

✷ The digitizer's pen or cursor (puck-like device with magnifying glass) creates a magnetic field which is "sensed".

 

✷ Press the tip of the pen or push a button on the cursor and a highly accurate XY point, representing this location, is sent to the computer through a USB connection.

 

✷ The Logic Trace software then turns those points or stream of points into a graphics file.

 

✷ The pen stylus does not need to be touching the board, the board can sense the tip of the pen almost an inch above the surface without losing accuracy. Digitize through paper, plastic, cardboard, glass.

I am amazed by its simplicity, Logic Trace can do the job in half the time, is cost effective, and increases productivity. I was digitizing patterns within an hour of installing the software. I would highly recommend this product as it is user friendly, very reasonably priced and completes its task with precision. Congratulations on a great product.

Your table has paid for itself in the first year, it's is amazing tool. This unit makes my job easier for creating fine art files, ten times faster. The board and your support has exceeded way beyond my expectations. Thank you Logic Group.

Hi John, I thought I'd drop you a quick email to let you know just how good your tablet and software is proving itself. Over the past week or two I've had a large run of jobs to cut from templates and your system has been brilliant. It's easy to use and more accurate than I had expected. This really is an excellent time saver. Really glad I bought it. Many thanks for a system that does everything it claims to do. A rare find these days. Best regards

I want to inform you, I'm so happy with my new digitalizing board! It makes my life easier.

Tracing Methods

  • ✷ Tracing - Freehand drawing, continuously trace an edge of a part or pattern. For example continuously trace a heart.
  •  

  • ✷ Lines and Arcs - digitize points and have the points connected with lines or arcs. For example to digitize the outline of an ice cream cone digitize 2 points for each side and 3 points for the arc at the top..
  •  

  • ✷ Combination - Toggle between freehand tracing and points connected with lines and arcs
  •  

  • ✷ Point to Point - Trace an outline by digitizing points and have the points connected with straight lines
  •  

  • ✷ Circles - Digitize any three points on a circle and the software uses those three points to calculate and display the circle
  •  

  • ✷ Curve Fitting - Digitize a series of points along a smooth curve and the software fits a Bezier curve-fit line through all the points

3 Easy Steps

 

#

Step 1

Place the paper pattern or actual pieces on the Logic Trace electronic board. Pieces can be fabric. cardboard, plastic, glass, wood, paper drawings, anything!

#

Step 2

Start the Logic Trace Software and trace the part or pattern with the pen stylus or cursor. Tracing can be freehand drawing, lines, arcs, circles, and curves.

#

Step 3

Save the design as a graphics file and load the file into your apparel or pattern-making software. Total time from start to finish, just minutes!

Larger Patterns

 

✷ The largest tracing board is 44x60" (110x150cm) which is large enough for most applications. We do frequently get requests for larger tracing systems.

 

✷ The Logic Group has developed the Jumbo Tracer CNC Tracing System where 2 or more 44x60" boards can be connected together for tracing larger patterns with the same accuracy and ease.

 

✷ Jumbo Tracers are available in sizes 5x8' (1.5x2.4m), 5x12' (1.5x3.6m), 5x16' (1.5x4.8m), 8x11' (2.4x3.3m), and 8x16.5' (2.4x5m). More information is available on the product page.

 

 

✷ If a user only has one tracing board and a pattern larger than the tracing board, they can trace the left half, save the DXF file, trace the right half, save the DXF file and load the two files into their CNC or CAD software and combine. The Jumbo Tracer is easier and more accurate but costs more.
