This is a cloud collaboration software as a service (SaaS) to offer a common data environment (CDE). This combines the functionalities of all the BricsCAD editions. It comes with all the functionalities of the BricsCAD Pro and an assembly modeling workflow, sheet metal parts creation using lofted solid representations, bill of materials, kinetic animations, and exploded view creation capabilities. This edition is meant for 3D mechanical components and parts designs. A Drawing was drawn using BricsCAD Mechanical ( source) These functionalities include 3D constraint system management, TIN surface creation, surface entity creation and lofting, deformable modeling, automatic design intent recognition, basic assembly creation, and editing, and automatic healing of imported solid geometry. In version V21 and above, the BircsCAD Pro also includes all the functionalities of the BricsCAD Platinum which has since been deprecated. It contains or the functionalities of the BricsCAD Lite, in addition to 3D modeling, standard part libraries, a materials library, a rendering engine, and an Autodesk AutoCAD ObjectARX, a development system that allows the use of hundreds of third-party application programs. It also offers LISP API customization and the ability to automate repetitive tasks. It is optimized for 2D drafting and its native file format if. ![]() This edition was referred to as ‘BricsCAD Classic’ in version V20 and below. ![]() A Drawing was drawn using BricsCAD Lite (Source: ) The user can upgrade the free version to any of the five commercial editions during the 30 days trial period by paying for the subscription fees and receiving a license key.
