AutoCAD Mechanical AutoCAD® Mechanical software is AutoCAD® software purpose-built for manufacturing with specific tools for almost every aspect of the mechanical drafting process. Plant designers, including engineering, procurement, and construction professionals, can save hours on design, rework, and workflow management, so they can spend their time innovating. AutoCAD Mechanical software can reduce the tedious work associated with manually performing updates and design changes by providing a comprehensive set of tools for automating complex and repetitive tasks. With AutoCAD Mechanical, designers can - Use machinery generators and calculators for shafts, springs, belts, chains, and cams
- Automatically generate reports and calculations needed to analyze designs
- Use the intelligent layer management system to automatically place items on the correct layer as a drawing is created
- Automatically update and redraw to show hidden geometry accurately
AutoCAD Mechanical provides libraries of parts as well as support for local and international drafting standards that enable the creation of consistent design requirements in drawings. Designers have access to - Libraries of more than 700,000 standard parts
- Support for several international standards-based drafting environments
- Thousands of standard structural steel shapes
- Graphs and tables that can be instantly generated and calculated
AutoCAD Mechanical software enables workgroups to organize, reuse, and share valuable design data and provide accurate reports to downstream users through a variety of features, such as - Integrated data management tools for workgroups
- Libraries of built-in language and graphic standards translators
- DWF™ technology that enables sharing of 2D and 3D designs
- Data management tools that enable Bill of Materials data to be linked or exported to manufacturing resource planning or enterprise resource planning systems
