What's in BricsCAD for You?

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.


Assembly Design and Validation
BricsCAD Mechanical delivers the tools and features you need in one CAD environment, from designing parts and components to comprehensive assemblies. Create, interact with and evaluate your assemblies’ fit and functionality, all in a single platform. BricsCAD Mechanical’s various assembly design tools give you design flexibility, allowing you to insert components, convert blocks to components, manage assemblies and more. With assembly validation tools, you can quickly remedy conflicts between components and analyze and simulate how the assembly moves. Additional tools, such as the BOM (Bill of Materials) generation, exploded views, and dynamic assembly constraints, simplify managing complex assemblies to provide optimal performance.
