Standards-Based Drafting and Part Libraries

Produce accurate designs faster with standards-
based parts from the libraries in AutoCAD 
Mechanical, saving hours of design time. AutoCAD 
Mechanical contains more than 700,000 parts 
such as screws, nuts, washers, pins, rivets, and 
bushings. It also includes 100,000 predrawn 
features such as undercuts, keyways, and thread 
ends. AutoCAD Mechanical also contains more 
than 8,000 predrawn holes, including through, 
blind, and oblong holes. When users incorporate 
these features into a design, AutoCAD Mechanical 
automatically cleans up the insertion area, reduc-
ing the need for manual edits. 

Realize consistent results on the shop floor by producing 

accurate designs using a comprehensive set of more than 

700,000 standard parts.

Customize AutoCAD Mechanical to fit your work-
flow. Users can now save frequently used parts as 

favorites, where they can be accessed quickly for 
easy reuse.

Multiply productivity with tools that help users de-

liver consistent, standards-based design documen-
tation. AutoCAD Mechanical supports ANSI, BSI, 

CSN, DIN, GB, ISO, and JIS drafting environments. 
Using standards-based drafting environments helps 
groups of users maintain a common form of com-
munication.
