MechaniCS

MechaniCS is an add-on for AutoCAD and Autodesk Inventor designed for mechanical engineering and preparation of design documentation according to ЕСКД. It is used to develop parts, assemblies, mechanical connections, and industrial equipment.

MechaniCS 2025, released on July 7, 2025, is available on the official website. The software combines drawing documentation tools, standard component libraries, and engineering calculations.

Drawing Documentation According to ЕСКД

MechaniCS automates dimensioning, tolerances, symbols, and technical requirements. Designers can use predefined drawing formats, title blocks, tables, and symbols instead of creating them manually.

• Apply dimensions and limit deviations.
• Specify surface roughness and geometric tolerances.
• Create views, cutaways, and cross-sections.
• Document welded joints and holes.
• Prepare technical requirements.
• Generate bills of materials and item numbers.

Libraries and Mechanical Connections

MechaniCS includes parametric libraries of standard and unified components, including fasteners, shafts, bearings, flanges, pipeline fittings, gearboxes, and other products.

Tools are available for designing bolted, screwed, riveted, and flanged connections, shafts, belt drives, and chain drives. Custom components can be created with MechWizard for recurring tasks.

Engineering Calculations

The software includes calculations for dimensional chains, geometric section properties, beams, bolts, springs, and cylindrical gear transmissions. Calculations for cylindrical shells and vessel heads are also available.

Results are used to select component parameters and verify design decisions.

Specifications and Compatibility

MechaniCS supports automatic bill of materials generation based on drawing objects. Version 2025 introduced multi-column output for built-in specifications, refined flange designation handling, and updated the standard parts database.

AutoCAD 2019–2025 and Inventor 2019–2023 are officially supported. The software runs on 64-bit Windows 7, 8, 10, and 11.

CAD.kz can help select a license, implement the software, and arrange training for mechanical designers.

MechaniCS Оборудование is a specialized version of MechaniCS for mechanical design, industrial equipment development, and preparation of engineering documentation. It combines MechaniCS tools with additional 3D design capabilities for equipment and piping systems in Autodesk Inventor.

MechaniCS Оборудование 2025 is listed on the official website. The product is intended for process equipment designers, mechanical engineering companies, and design organizations.

Equipment Design

The software provides tools for designing process equipment, vessels, and piping system components. Specialized commands and standard component libraries are available when working in Autodesk Inventor.

• Create equipment shells, cylindrical sections, and vessel heads.
• Design nozzles, flanges, and connection components.
• Place valves, fittings, and piping components.
• Build assemblies using standard components.

Mechanical Engineering Drawings

MechaniCS Оборудование includes the tools of the core MechaniCS suite for preparing documentation according to ESKD standards. Designers can create surface roughness symbols, tolerance indications, welded joint symbols, dimensions, and technical requirements.

Parametric libraries of standard components, mechanical connection design tools, and engineering calculations are available. Bills of materials and item numbers are generated from drawing objects.

Compatibility

For version 2025, the developer specifies AutoCAD 2019–2025 and Autodesk Inventor 2019–2023. The software supports 64-bit Windows 7, 8, 10, and 11.

CAD.kz can help select a configuration and arrange implementation and training for mechanical designers.
