With the Logic Trace System, simply place a part or pattern on the board, start the Logic Trace Software, trace the outline with the pen stylus or cursor, and save the file. No more measuring, no more spending hours in a CAD program, no more size and vector conversion issues of a photograph.
Everything you need including cables is included. All you need is a Windows 10 or 11 computer, or a Mac with the M chip, and a place to put the board.
The software is available on Windows 10/11 and Apple Mac with M-chip. The Logic Trace Software is easy to use and easy to learn. Tracing a part or pattern can be done by freehand drawing, lines, arcs, curve fitting through points and circles. Add any inside holes and save the vector file as a DXF, SVG, or PDF.
The software commands can be moved to a cellphone or tablet and placed on the tracing board for easy use.
The software is available in many languages including English, Spanish, French, German, Arabic, Hindi, Turkish, Italian, Greek, Korean, Japanese
The pen stylus provides an elegant way to trace along the edge of a part. The pen sends a stream of data to the software for tracing or single points for defining lines, arcs, curves, and spline curve fit shapes.

The pen stylus and cursor is recognized almost an inch (2 cm) above the board without any loss in accuracy. Trace patterns through paper, cardboard, plastic, plywood without needing to cut the outline.
Almost a third of our customers are metal fabrication shops. Some metals interfere with the magnetic field of the pen stylus. The outline of the metal part can typically be traced. It is the inside holes that cause problems. In this case place a piece of paper under the part, trace the outside, mark the holes onto the paper (a misting bottle works well), lift the part and trace the holes. Placing a quarter inch plastic sheet under the metal allows more of the magnetic field of the pen reach the board and works well.
Several tracing methods are included in the software to make tracing easy and accurate.
Tracing and Curves - freehand drawing, whatever is drawn is recorded
Lines - Click the starting and ending points of the line
Arcs - Click the start, middle, and end of arc
Curves with points - digitize a curve as a series of points with the software connecting the points with a Bezier smooth curve
Circles - Define circles by either clicking any 3 points on the circle or by clicking the center point and inputting the diameter
To make the tracing easier, the software command window can be moved from the computer screen to a cellphone or tablet which can be placed on the tracing board. Simply click buttons on the cellphone or tablet without going back to the computer. This is especially useful when using large boards or the Jumbo multiple boards.
Coming in the first quarter of 2027
