2D and 3D CAD Software from Autodesk

Autodesk AutoCAD is a software solution for computer-aided design (CAD) and the creation of technical drawings. AutoCAD was developed by Autodesk and is one of the best known and most widely used CAD applications in the world. Convince yourself of the diverse application possibilities and advantages of Autodesk CAD software.


Autodesk AutoCAD: Design Software for Construction


Autodesk AutoCAD is the world's leading design and documentation solution and "the" CAD software that is successfully used millions of times to create precise 2D and 3D drawings. 

How does AutoCAD work? With AutoCAD software, you can quickly and precisely design and edit complex 2D geometries and 3D models with solids, surfaces and mesh objects. You can also customize individual tasks at any time according to customer requirements. Use AutoCAD to create, visualize and document your design ideas - from the first draft to the final detailing.

The software enables engineers, architects, designers and other professionals to create detailed models, add dimensions, insert text and use many other features to create accurate technical drawings.

AutoCAD software is used in a variety of industries, including architecture, mechanical engineering, plant engineering, electrical engineering, civil engineering and product design.

AutoCAD also provides tools for collaboration and file sharing, making it an important resource in work environments where designs and plans need to be shared between different teams.




Autodesk AutoCAD Product Features


With the CAD program AutoCAD, you can create 2D and 3D CAD drawings. Discover the product functions of the design software from Autodesk.


Expand CAD Workflows

Create, edit and view your CAD drawings with AutoCAD on a stationary or mobile device. Publish your designs online so that colleagues and partners can view and comment on them. 

Draw 2D Designs

Draw, mark and format your 2D designs with AutoCAD more easily than ever before - whether texts, columns, boundaries or dimensions. Then link and extract your data and define their parametric dependencies.

3D Modeling

Use AutoCAD's extensive collection of modeling tools for your designs and create realistic 3D models. 


Simplify Collaboration

Simplify your collaboration with colleagues or partners. Share your data (pdf, dgn), assign it to current projects and manage multiple drawings in parallel. Go one step further and attach models as documents in AutoCAD Navisworks and insert geographical location information.

Simplify Installations

Protect yourself in good time against possible file incompatibilities with the help of the unique TrustedDWG™ technology. You can also use the included CAD standard check function and the programming interfaces, for example with ActiveX, VBS, AutoLisp, Visual LISP, ObjectARX, JavaScript and .NET. 

3D Visualization

Use the visualization applications of the CAD program AutoCAD for a realistic rendering - almost like a photo, and also online.



AutoCAD Toolsets


AutoCAD includes seven toolsets that give access to features and libraries specific to your industry, such as architecture, mechanical design, 3D cartography and more. Toolsets help you automate frequent operations and perform your design tasks faster and more accurately than ever before.


Use the Architecture toolset to add functions such as architecture drawings, documentation, and parts lists, as well as to automate drawing tasks.

Use the Electrical toolset to add specific CAD electrical planning functions for creating, editing and documenting electrical control systems.

Use GIS topology to enable you to use and manage CAD and GIS data for planning, design and data management.

In the Mechanical toolset, open a library of standard parts and tools for creating, editing and documenting designs.

Use the MEP toolset to get all the tools you need to design, plan and document building services in an AutoCAD environment.

Use elements in the Plant 3D toolset to create P&IDs and then integrate them into 3D models for plant design.

Use the Raster Design toolset to convert raster images into DWG™ objects. Edit scanned drawings in a familiar AutoCAD environment
