The number of onboard commands exceeds 90. It strongly supports machine design with a wide variety of variations.

The mechanical option is a dedicated feature that supports mechanical design in CADPAC-CREATOR 2D. It allows for one-touch drawing and editing of commonly used JIS standard parts for mechanical design (such as bolts, nuts, retaining rings, spur gears, springs, etc.) and frequently used mechanical shapes (such as keyways, elongated holes, shafts, etc.). Numerous essential commands for mechanical design are provided, including the linkage of balloons and parts lists, a parts ledger for managing screws and purchased parts, analyses for calculating section properties and moments of inertia, and belt simulations. With CADPAC-CREATOR 2D and the mechanical option, the efficiency of mechanical design is significantly improved.

Electronic parts specifically for mechanical drawings. Instantly retrieve standard and commercially available components and place them in the drawings.

JIS Machine Parts is a dedicated option that supports mechanical design in CADPAC-CREATOR 2D. It offers a rich lineup of frequently used JIS standard components as well as manufacturer parts. The latest updates and newly added parts can be directly downloaded from the data server online via the internet (annual maintenance contract required). JIS Machine Parts allows you to instantly call up standard components and commercially available parts essential for mechanical design from an easy-to-read list, and place three-view drawings continuously on your plans. Additionally, it comes with "Mechanical Design Materials" that strongly support mechanical design. Not only does it provide information on mechanical design, but it also calculates results by simply inputting values into formulas.

From 3D collaboration to drawing management, the flow of the development line has been established, resulting in increased efficiency.

Based on CADPAC, the flow of the development line has been established from 3D collaboration to drawing management, significantly improving efficiency. The interview was conducted at the MD Center in Kazo City, Saitama Prefecture, which has the headquarters functions of Bridgestone Flotech Co., Ltd. At the beginning of the implementation, two designers were dedicated to creating part drawings, and thanks to the establishment of a parts database, the CAD introduction was successful in a short period. By using the CADPAC SOLIDWORKS interface, 3D models can be directly imported into CADPAC, allowing for the creation of product and part drawings, or part drawings created in CADPAC can be directly utilized as SOLIDWORKS sketches. In the development headquarters, CADPAC and SOLIDWORKS are directly linked, enhancing design efficiency. For more details, please download the catalog.
