BricsCAD Mechanical
-
Best for: Mechanical Design
-
Advanced 3D parametric assemblies
-
Sheet metal, exploded views, BOM generation
-
Suited for machinery and manufacturing industries
🛠️ 1. 3D Mechanical Part & Assembly Design
-
Create complex mechanical parts and full assemblies.
-
Supports bottom-up and top-down design workflows.
-
Associative parts, constraints, joints, and kinematic analysis.
🧩 2. Parametric Features & Constraints
-
Apply 2D and 3D constraints to drive parametric behavior.
-
Design intent stays preserved during model edits.
-
Easy updates with full control over geometry.
🧱 3. Standard Mechanical Parts Library
-
Built-in standard parts (bolts, nuts, gears, bearings, etc.).
-
Follows ISO, DIN, ANSI, and JIS standards.
-
Insert, customize, and reuse with automatic BOM integration.
🏗️ 4. Sheet Metal Design Tools
-
Design bends, flanges, reliefs, and corner types.
-
Convert solid models into sheet metal parts instantly.
-
Create flat patterns for CNC cutting or laser machines.
📦 5. Assembly & BOM Management
-
Create multi-level assemblies with subcomponents.
-
Automatically generate Bill of Materials (BOM) and exploded views.
-
Update assemblies when part geometry changes.
⚙️ 6. Drawing Automation
-
Generate 2D views from 3D models automatically.
-
Create section, detail, and exploded views.
-
All views remain linked to the 3D model for easy updates.
🔁 7. Full DWG-Based Workflow
-
Everything is saved in standard
.dwg
format – no conversion issues. -
Integrates with existing CAD environments.
💰 8. Lower Cost, Perpetual Licensing
-
Much more affordable than other mechanical CAD software.
-
One-time perpetual license available.
🚀 9. Seamless Transition from AutoCAD® Mechanical
-
Familiar interface and workflows.
-
Imports mechanical drawings with high fidelity.
🌍 10. Integration with BricsCAD Pro & BIM
-
BricsCAD Mechanical works natively with other BricsCAD modules.
-
Ideal if you’re collaborating across architecture, civil, or MEP.
