NX Drafting
Automated and Associative Engineering Drawing Creation
NX Drafting automates and streamlines the creation of professional engineering drawings. Drawings remain fully associative with the 3D model, so design changes are automatically reflected in all related views, dimensions, annotations, and documentation.
Engineers can create standard orthographic and auxiliary views, dimensions, symbols, tabular notes, hidden-line views, sheet layouts, and automatic parts lists directly from the 3D model.
Associative Drawings
Drawing views and annotations update automatically whenever the 3D model changes.
Automatic View Creation
Generate orthographic, auxiliary, section, detail, and projected views directly from models.
Drawing Automation
Use drag-and-drop templates containing borders, title blocks, notes, and predefined layouts.
Standards Compliance
Configure drawings according to ANSI, ISO, JIS, DIN, GB, and ESKD standards.
