Description

High-quality 3D CAD software designed for engineering and product design is available through Inventor® CAD software, which offers extensive tools for 3D mechanical design, documentation, and product simulation. This software allows users to operate efficiently by combining various design methods, such as parametric, direct, freeform, and rules-based approaches. Collaborate seamlessly with anyone, regardless of the CAD software they utilize, and leverage cloud-based design reviews to gather insights from important stakeholders wherever they are located. It supports the entire product development process with a unified data model, enabling more effective design through specialized features for sheet metal, frame design, and tube and pipe. Additionally, users can enhance their design, documentation, and process automation efforts using iLogic. The Inventor API allows for the creation of custom add-ins, while the Forge Design Automation API offers the ability to execute job processes in the cloud, providing further flexibility and innovation in design workflows. By utilizing these advanced tools, teams can significantly improve their efficiency and collaboration throughout the design process.

Description

Mechanica, nanoCAD's 3D mechanical design and 2D drafting module, is a powerful tool for both. It is based upon an advanced parametric engine that works with a large collection of standard parts. It allows users to quickly develop high-quality mechanical engineering drawing and project documentation. The nanoCAD platform offers a complete set of tools for designing and editing 2D/3D 3D objects. It provides multiple drawing and editing options for most geometrical elements. The nanoCAD platform provides the foundation for a more powerful and bespoke CAD system. Mechanica is a platform that extends nanoCAD with a range of mechanical drawing and engineering calculations utilities, along with a vast collection of standard and user defined parts. The synergy accelerates the parametric drafting. Advanced tools for designing shafts, pipelines and other structures. Drawing projections with engineering standards.
