How to use different PCB materials

I have to design a PCB in which I may use materials that are different from those provided by Autodesk FUsion, such as polyimide. How can I do that, or at least generate gerber files that tell the manufacturer the material that I need? 

 

Thank you.

Javier.

Hello @javiermail89 ,

 

I hope you're doing well. By definition, gerber files don't specify the construction material. You usually have to specify that when talking to your board house. The ODB++ standard will carry more information but we don't currently have polyimide in the the material list.

 

I'll put in a request for this to be included in Fusion.

 

Let me know if there's anything else I can do for you.

 

Best Regards,
