BricsCAD enables engineers to craft more detailed designs and manipulate them virtually. CAD software calculates how multiple materials relate.

BricsCAD has designed the ultimate suite of tools to meet your design needs. From the earliest stages of 2D drafting to the finalized 3D models utilized for manufacturing or building, our robust set of products makes it easy to create a streamlined workflow.

What's in BricsCAD for You?

Mechanical Design and Drafting Software for Manufacturing

Mechanical Design and Drafting Software for Manufacturing

BricsCAD Mechanical includes a host of 2D and 3D mechanical design tools to get you on the fastest path to complete and accurate production materials. With BricsCAD Mechanical, you get a fast and familiar 2D mechanical design and drafting toolset which enhances your 3D to 2D DFMA workflows. Equipped with tools to help you evaluate how different objects interact, you can easily manage multiple parts in a single assembly, and iterate your drawing faster. Increase design reliability with flexible modeling tools that create realistic simulations, and detect any potential design flaws easily and early with 2D finite element analysis ensuring your manufacturing drawings are precise, your worlflow is efficient and your designs are ready for production.

Sheet Metal Design with BricsCAD Mechanical

Enter the realm of sheet metal design with BricsCAD Mechanical, which features a comprehensive set of tools specifically designed for sheet metal design, simplifying a complex process and automating it from design to production. BricsCAD Mechanical's comprehensive toolkit simplifies creating flanges, bends, and intricate sheet metal structures while providing automation for the overall workflow. If you have a 3D model from another mechanical CAD software that you want to use, you can convert these to sheet metal in just one click, then go on to refine the design to your liking. You may also create 2D and 3D unfolded views of sheet metal parts and edit them while the 3D folded part stays associative.
