Can anyone give me suggestions as to what software that can convert gerbers into cad data and be brought into Unicam (UGS PLM Software). We are currently using Gerbcam but it outdated and we need to upgrade soon. Thanks for your info.

I always got told if someone can extract gerber file they can also extract cad file. If this is a customer I would put it back on them to get you the cad file.

These guys will do the first conversion free. I have no affiliation with them.

I have used Unicam's GerbCAM with limited success, it is very dependant on the quality of the customer's gerbers. You might want to see if this is what you're after.
