Summary of MAGIC-BOM® – FOR PERFECT PCB ASSEMBLY
MAGIC-BOM® in the PCB-POOL® configurator from Beta LAYOUT auto-generates a PCB Bill of Materials by importing PCB layout files. It checks Beta LAYOUT’s component stock, suggests distributor alternatives for missing parts, and lets you confirm selections. Once complete, it shows instant pricing for components, assembly, and PCB manufacture, and provides the BOM in Excel after ordering. It supports Autodesk Eagle, Target 3001! and Altium Designer and compares multiple distributors to find optimal component options.

MAGIC-BOM® is the latest feature in the PCB-POOL® configurator from the prototype specialist and PCB manufacturer Beta LAYOUT.
MAGIC-BOM® creates your Bill of Material (BOM) for PCB assembly as if by Magic;
How does it work ?
You simply drag your PCB layout file into the ‘drag & drop’ field.
The MAGIC-BOM Tool first checks whether the components are available in Beta LAYOUT’s component stock inventory, which automatically saves you time as well as reducing component and shipping costs.
If your component is not available, Magic BOM will suggest suitable components from various distributors, which you then only have to select.
As soon as all components have been selected and the parts list has been completely filled out, the price for components, assembly service and PCB manufacture is displayed instantly.
After ordering, you will receive the parts list (BOM) in excel format for documentation purposes.
The benefits for you:
- Cheaper and faster assembly through our own stocked components.
- Faster creation of your parts list – you only confirm the correct components.
- Instant pricing for PCB, components and assembly.
- Magic BOM supports Autodesk Eagle, Target 3001! & Altium designer files.
- Our powerful search function compares the offers FROM several distributions and
gives you the optimal results to choose from.
