List of Important Mechanical Engineer Software
Hi readers, Thank you for being with us and supporting us by more and more number of page views. As you can see our Mechanical Engineering portal is becoming famous day by day ,it’s all because of you guys . If you like our posts then please do share with your friends.Many Engineers ask me question about Mechanical software list and which software is best for design ,which course should I join after AutoCad ?
Here I am Going to list some important mechanical Software. This list may not be perfect because in market there are lots of software are available as well as every company requirement packages are different.
Note:To get More Information about particular software please click on the software name so that you will redirect to Official software links:
下面列出的软件通常使用的探讨ical Engineers.
Design:CATIA, SolidWorks, Pro-E
Every Mechanical Engineer is expected to have a good grip on designing. They use it heavily in most of the fields like Automobile Engineering, Aerospace Engineering, Tool Design, etc. Also with the advancement of Rapid Prototyping and 3-d Printing, they are becoming more visible to the outer world as one can see how exactly your product looks like in just a few hours.
Auto Cad:
AutoCAD has a user-friendly interface and includes many tools to design complex parts in 2D and 3D. The files can be exported to CAM software for analysis.
创建,编辑,折线,曲线切割和许多命令是您在AutoCAD中使用的命令。它是从AutoCAD 1.0开始的不同版本中提供,这是最新版本最新版本AutoCAD 2015的第一个版本。
SolidWorks 3D CAD
General purpose CAD software with a user-friendly interface, for making parts in 2D and 3D.
SolidWorks is a 3D mechanical Computer Aided Design (CAD) program or application software that runs on Microsoft windows.
Pro/Engineer Wildfire / Creo Parametric
Software with enhanced features and tools to design, sketch, assemble, weld, draw etc .There are various versions present fromPro/ENGINEER 8.3(which is first and developed in 1987) toCreo Paramatric34.0(这是2013年的最新版本)。在那之间有25 more versions are there.
CATIA
- CATIA stands For Computer Aided Three-dimensional Interactive Application.
- It is a multi platform CAD/CAM/CAE commercial software suite that is developed by the french company Dassault Systemes.CATIA is commonly referred to as a 3D product lifecycle management software suite.facilitates true collaborative engineering across the multidisciplinary extended enterprise, including style and form design, mechanical design and equipment and systems engineering, managing digital mock-ups, machining, analysis, and simulation.
- CATIA enables the creation of 3D parts, from 3D sketches, sheet metal, composites, moulded, forged or tooling parts up to the definition of mechanical assemblies.
- Most of the Aerospace companies used the CATIA softwares for designing their aircrafts.
- Versions-There are three versions present
CATIA-V3
CATIA-V4
CATIA-V5
CATIA-V6

NX Unigraphics
NX, formerly known as NX Unigraphics or usually just U-G, is an advanced high-endCAD/CAM/CAE software package originally developed by Unigraphics, but since 2007 by Siemens PLM Software.
It is used, among other tasks, for:
Design(parametric and direct solid/surface modelling)
Engineering analysis(static, dynamic, electro-magnetic, thermal, using the Finite Element Method, and fluid using the finite volume method).Manufacturing finished design by using included machining modules.
NX is a direct competitor to CATIA, Creo, and Solidworks.
Autodesk 3ds Max
Autodesk 3ds Max is basically a 3D modeling software with additional features for animation (making it suitable for games and films). The software is particularly useful for making animations of mechanical parts.
Finite Element Analysis:Ansys, Fluent
People who are into Structural Analysis, Aerodynamics or Fluid Dynamics should have an idea about these. It is particularly useful for students participating in competitions like SAE-Baja as it helps in deciding the shape of the members, the stresses on them, impact of collision, etc.
ANSYS
CAD分析软件套件,用于多个测试,显示绿色,蓝色和红色的结果。该软件在几个部分计算应力值(允许改进的优化)。

Abaqus
Abaqus is a CAD and finite element analysis software for drawing complex geometries and getting optimised results.
Matlab
Matlab is primarily an advanced mathematics software (with programming features), but has features designed specifically for engineering e.g. tools for attaining the stability of an automated machine.
Programming:C++, Python
At least one programming language is necessary for any engineer. It doesn’t have to do anything with his/her profession but its just good to sharpen your grey cells once in a while. They are used in areas like Robotics, Artificial Intelligence and Control Theory.
what about homer and retscreen?
Our college only provide for us AutoCAD 2d & 3d courses, as a senior my teacher told me we should learn another design software, as AutoCAD is not more suitable for mechanical engineering design ..!
Thank you for the list
Autocad is basic design software very strong for 2d drafting . in case of 3D you should try Solidworks,Catia Creo
bro
your site is awesome.no words to say.thanks for helping us
Ii it possible post our project in your site.If so how can i do it
As you know that torrent is now blocked, so now from where i can get the download link of all these designing softwares with full version crack?
Torrent is working dude. Check piratebay
Cheers, i really think i will be back to your site
Which software can 1 use for calculating rotating equipment clearnces and tolerances.
Eg.calculating interface of tapered gear for mounting.
