Familiar Interface

Leverage what you already know with full command, script, macro and menu compatibility with AutoCAD®.

• Command compatible • Menu (.CUI, .CUIX) compatible • Macro/script compatible • Support file (.PC3, .LIN, .PAT, .DWT, .SSM) compatible

LISP Routines Highly compatible with AutoCAD® 2020 .dwg Run LISP routines developed in other There’s no need to change your printer setup, drawing CAD applications, or develop your own in templates, blocks or sheet set layouts to move to the BricsCAD LISP Advanced Development BricsCAD – they are all 100% compatible. BricsCAD is Environment (BLADE). based on native DWG for the highest compatibility.

Use your Dynamic Blocks Nearest Distance

You can use the Dynamic Blocks that you View the distance between any two entities, created in AutoCAD® directly inside of BricsCAD. and move the second one by simply typing in Control visibility states and stretch, flip, a new distance value. and rotate just as you would in AutoCAD®. “Adapting to BricsCAD was really easy. Within one week, we had made a full migration to BricsCAD: as if we had never changed our CAD platform at all.” Dario Pibiri, Mechanical Engineer at Ecophos

Collaboration

The Bricsys 24/7 connection panel lives inside of BricsCAD and gives you direct access to our cloud-based file storage and collaboration network.

Quad

BricsCAD’s unique Quad palette predicts your command usage and offers one-click access to the command you’ll need next.

The BricsCAD 2D-detailing workflow is supported In just a few clicks, BIMStair enables the creation by the automatic generation of sections and detail of a complete parametric staircase, supporting straight, views. These views update automatically when L-shaped, and U-shaped stairs. changes are made to the BIM. “BricsCAD offers 2D, 3D and BIM. It is an undeniable strength to be able to use those three in one software product within our company.” Tooru Murayama, Manager of the Technical Development Department at NS-TEXENG

Classify building elements automatically

Bimify turns your design concept into a full BIM in seconds, using machine learning to automatically classify building elements:

• Solids and block references • BIM Profiles to linear solids • Spatial locations • Rooms • Internal and external walls • Elevation views and section plans

A complete mechanical design toolkit, all in DWG Design and assemble freely, using the power of 3D Direct Modeling

3D Direct Modeling

Create any shape freely using our powerful Direct Modeler. It treats native and imported geometry exactly the same way, for maximum compatibility with other MCAD systems.

Create parametric components

Parametrize turns dumb 3D solids into smart parametrically-driven components in seconds. You can build constraint systems and change parameters in the BricsCAD Properties Panel.

3D Constraints Sheet Metal Modeling

The powerful 3D constraint engine in BricsCAD BricsCAD Mechanical lets you create, import, rework Mechanical lets you create parametric and unfold sheet metal parts using lofted solids, components, table-driven parts and assemblies. to ensure that you can edit deeply without fear of model failures.

2D Automated Drawing Generation Automated Exploded views with trailing lines

A familiar workflow for turning your mechanical BricsCAD Mechanical can create multi-axis exploded designs into production drawings. Change a part views, automatically disassembling complex or the entire assembly, and 2D drawing details are assemblies and adding trailing lines, in just one click. automatically updated. “If you’re an engineer who is used to working in 2D, it is much easier to start working in 3D with BricsCAD than with any other tool, because you can just follow the same intuitive pattern.” Hristo Guentchev, Managing Director at Prototyp

Bill Of Materials Generation

The BOM panel lets you manage multiple BOM tables in your drawings. You can format each column individually, set up equations, sort tables, and more.

Multi-parametric 3D animations

The Animation Editor panel is designed to create complex 3D animations, where each scene can contain multiple parallel actions, controlled by different parameters.
