I'm tasked with creating footprints for generic screws. There is 1 requirement I do not quite understand. I was told that there is some kind tool/machine that would "assemble" the screw onto the PCB (for high volume production). The head of that tool needs a large area to move around after placing said screw. Therefore I need to take that into consideration.
3 questions:
1- does anyone know what the name of that process is? (I tried searching for anything related to it on the web but came up empty)
2- what is the dimension for such keep out region?
3- should I put it under placement boundary or package keep out? If I put it on both, I'll get a DRC.
Thanks,
Vinh.
