2D Drafting
Work on legacy files, create schematics and proposals, and collaborate with customers who can’t access 3D models.
Professional 2D CAD software with time-saving tools and the ability to create, view, and edit DWG, DXF, and DGN files. The Premium version has parametric constraints, PDF import, and basic 3D tools.
Best-in-class 3D CAD software with design, simulation, cost estimation, manufacturability checks, CAM, sustainable design, and data management capabilities. Available in three versions.
Work on legacy files, create schematics and proposals, and collaborate with customers who can’t access 3D models.
Leverage powerful design and development tools to create dynamic prototypes and demonstrate functionality.
Combine 2D and 3D CAD to create more efficient workflows, speed up the design cycle, and reduce your costs.
Young Industries is a leading manufacturer of custom-designed equipment for handling dry bulk materials. Already a SOLIDWORKS customer, they were attracted to DraftSight’s built-in compatibility, as well as its network licensing, which is both cost-effective and sustainable. Young Industries gets CAD 2D and 3D functionality at a fraction of the price compared to other applications.
HeatTek designs and manufactures custom industrial ovens and furnaces, and they needed 2D and 3D CAD software that could effortlessly transition between tasks. SOLIDWORKS takes care of their 3D design, revolutionizing their engineering processes and driving innovation. DraftSight handles simple layouts, electrical schematics, and accessing legacy designs. Using both, their engineers were able to streamline their workflow and boost their productivity.
CentraSep Technologies, a manufacturer of industrial centrifuges, relies on SOLIDWORKS for system design and DraftSight for various 2D needs, including leveraging legacy data, creating proposals, and developing electrical schematics. The integrated 2D and 3D CAD capabilities allow their engineers to quickly transition from quoting, proposal development, and sales support to sophisticated, accurate centrifuge design and back again.
