Data Management and Reporting Tools
 Balloons and Bills of Materials 
Use standards-based balloons and parts lists and 
automatically update the BOM to seamlessly track 
any changes—helping to keep teams on schedule 
by reducing costly breaks in production due to 
incorrect part counts, identification, and ordering. 
AutoCAD Mechanical includes support for multiple 
parts lists per drawing, collapsible assemblies, auto-
matic recognition of standard parts, and customiz-
able options so features can be revised to match 
current company practices. The new BOM configu-
ration manager simplifies setup and customization. 
Hole Charts 
Quickly create accurate hole charts that automati-
cally update based on design changes, reducing 
errors associated with creating charts manually. 
When users place standard holes in the design, 
the software automatically generates hole charts 
that display detailed design information. Dynamic 
highlighting helps ensure that all holes needed 
for the chart are accurately represented. After 
the user places a chart, it remains linked to the 
design, dynamically updating to reflect changes 
and additions. Filtering capabilities enable users 
to separate different hole sizes into different hole 
charts for streamlined manufacturing processes.
Language Translation
Accelerate language translation and simplify 
international communications with built-in tools. 
AutoCAD Mechanical offers a basic library of 
prewritten language strings that can automati-
cally translate drawing text from one language to 
another. The library is an open format that can be 
expanded and modified.
Integrated Data Management
Securely store and manage work-in-progress 
design data and related documents with data man-
agement tools for workgroups. Team members can 
accelerate development cycles and increase their 
company’s return on investment in design data by 
driving design reuse.
