Overview
nanoCAD is a 2D/3D CAD engineering software for mechanical designers, architects, civil engineers, and construction professionals seeking an affordable DWG-native AutoCAD alternative. It offers full DWG compatibility back to R11, associative dimensions, Xref support, batch plotting, and a scripting engine with VBS, JS, and LISP. Five optional modules (3D Solid Modeling, Construction, Mechanica, Raster, Topoplan) extend it for specific disciplines. Sheet metal modeling, 3D constraints, and parametric editing are available for assembly work.
Key Features
