AutoCAD toolset
Work faster with CAD software that's ideal for 2D and 3D modelling.
Contact our expertsWhat is AutoCAD?
AutoCAD is CAD (Computer-aided Design) software used by architects, engineers and designers all over the world. Autodesk AutoCAD creates accurate 2D drawings and 3D models. AutoCAD Toolset gives you access to specialised libraries and features for industries that work in areas such as architecture, mechanical design, and 3D mapping.
Working in AutoCAD offers great flexibility thanks to AutoCAD web and mobile apps and the latest innovative features in subscriber-only updates.
Work faster with specialised toolsets
AutoCAD includes industry-specific features and intelligent objects for architectural drawing, mechanical design, electrical design, and much more:
- Automate floor plans, sections, and elevations
- Quickly draw pipes, ducts, and circuits with component libraries
- Automatically generate annotations, layers, schedules, lists, and tables
- Use a rule-based workflow to comply with industry standards
- Create and edit 2D geometries and 3D models with solids, surfaces, and mesh objects
- Annotate drawings with text, dimensions, guides, and tables
- Customise the ribbon and tool palettes
- Extend functionality with additional apps and APIs
- Extract object data into tables
- Attach and import data from the PDF file
Mechanical
Tools for mechanical design
- Automation of design tasks in mechanical and plant engineering, such as designing machine components, dimensioning, or creating bills of materials.
- Use specialised tools to create parts, assemblies, and other drawings for product design.
- Access more than 700,000 intelligent standards and catalogue parts, elements, and symbols according to ISO, ANSI, DIN, JIS, BSI, CSN, and GB standards.
Architecture
Tools for architecture
- You can create floor plans, sections, elevations, and other drawings for building planning using specialised tools.
- You will also find additional objects such as walls, doors, and windows.
- Access more than 8,000 intelligent architectural objects and styles with support for layer standards AIA 2, BS1192, DIN 276, ISYBAU Long Format, ISYBAU Short Format, and STLB.
Electrical
Tools for electrical planning
- Create panel layouts, schematic diagrams, and other electrical drawings using specialised tools.
- Use compliant project standards and organise drawings in a project-based structure.
- Additionally, you will find a library of more than 65,000 intelligent electrical symbols according to AS, GB, IEC, IEC-60617, JIC, JIS, NFPA, and IEEE standards.
MEP
Tools for building MEP
- Draft, design, and document HVAC, piping, and electrical drawings in an AutoCAD environment.
- Create precise design documents for building systems planning. Use task-based tools to create MEP drawings.
- Access more than 10,500 intelligent MEP objects according to AIA 2, BS1192 – AUG Version 2, as well as layer standards DIN 276, ISYBAU Long Format, ISYBAU Short Format, and STLB.
Plant 3D
Tools for 3D Plant Design
- Adds features that help you produce P&IDs and integrate them into a 3D model for plant design.
- Create isometric, orthographic, and material reports and share them with other team members.
- Use specialised tools to create schematics, plant layouts, and other drawings for plant planning.
- Additionally, you will find a library of more than 400 intelligent plant objects, such as equipment templates, piping templates, and structural steel profiles, according to 40 standards, including ANSI and DIN.
MAP 3D
Tools for 3D Cartography
- Create, manage, and share cartography and GIS information in AutoCAD's drawing environment.
- Use task-based tools to manage and aggregate GIS data with design data.
- Access spatial data stored in files, databases, and web services.
- Utilise standard data schemas, automated workflows, and report templates for Electric North America, Electric Europe, water, wastewater, and gas industries.
Raster design
Tools for Raster Images
- Adds raster-to-vector tools that can help you convert raster images to DWG™ objects.
- You can mirror and retouch an image, adjust its aspect ratio, or remove blemishes from it.
- Use AutoCAD standard commands for raster areas and primitive shapes. You can easily delete raster images, lines, arcs, and circles.
- Create lines and polylines from raster images and convert raster files to vector drawings.
- View georeferenced images and analyse them with Civil 3D design software and the AutoCAD Map 3D toolset.
Anywhere and anytime
Access AutoCAD anytime and anywhere with the new web and mobile apps that provide you with flexibility while on the go. View, edit, comment, and create drawings on the move using the AutoCAD mobile app or from your web browser using the AutoCAD web app.
Always available
Open your cloud-saved DWG files directly in AutoCAD on virtually any device through leading cloud storage providers such as Microsoft OneDrive, Box, and Dropbox.
AutoCAD is also available in an LT version, making it easy to create precise drawings regardless of focus. The program is the world's most widely used CAD 2D software and is available for Windows and Mac. In AutoCAD LT, you can:
- Create drawings from scratch or import files.
- Edit and export high-quality PDF files, and share your designs with others.
- Work on your drawing on your PC, in the cloud, or on mobile devices.
AutoCAD LT is known for its productivity, compatibility, and reliability, helping you design your ideas effectively. Drawings created in AutoCAD LT can also be used in AutoCAD Toolset programs.
