Mechanica module

Library of standard and complex parts

• Search filter
• Fasteners
• Standard profiles
• Reamers
• Circuit elements symbols
• Technical sketches etc.

Broad range of design tools

• Supports multi-sheet drawings
• Constructs objects and symbols by a variety of methods, such as orthogonal drawing and using object snap
• Manages drawing order of overlaying objects
• Draws standard and custom line types, hatches, and fonts with styles etc.

Parameterized parts database

Mechanica’s parts database contains a vast collection of parametric and object-dependent elements, including three-dimensional ones. When you change the parameters of a part, all associated parts in the drawing also change automatically, according to their database values. This powerful tool generates design variations, which improve the design quality.

Standards-based engineering drawings

With Mechanica, you quickly make drawings based on international standards using these tools:

• ISO-standard fonts, line types, and dimension styles
• Tolerance zones and deviations for dimensions and fits etc.

Designing bolted and riveted joints

Mechanica offers flexibility in handling bolt and rivet functions:

• Connect groups of parts with arbitrary thickness using bolts, screws, or studs
• Connect parts of arbitrary thickness with rivets displayed in regular and high accuracy, made of hollow and semi-hollow rivets etc.

BOM tools

Mechanica’s BOM tools create bills of material of parts linked to drawings. BOM tables can contain the following items:

• Itemized specification numbers
• Electrical specifications
• Automatic receipt of specifications
• Custom specifications etc.
