nanoCAD is a CAD platform of professional level that adheres entirely to the industry-standard DWG. It provides a conventional user interface along with an extensive array of tools designed for 2D/3D drafting tailored to the requirements of engineering, architecture, and construction professionals. Additional features can be incorporated into the program through the use of add-ons.

3D Solid Modeling
The 3D Solid Modeling add-on for nanoCAD enhances the platform by incorporating both direct and parametric modeling. Its purpose is to create 3D assemblies using 3D constraints and xrefs, and to manage sheet metal modeling.
The 3D Solid Modeling Module offers users the rigor of parametric modeling and the freedom of direct modeling, conveniently packaged together in one environment. Parametric modeling builds 3D geometry piece by piece, with formula-based parameters that specify and change sizes of and distances between parts. Direct modeling offers a what-you-see-is-what-you-get approach in which designers edit 3D models by pushing and pulling faces and edges.

Mechanica
Mechanica is an add-on for nanoCAD that focuses on 2D drafting and 3D mechanical design. It relies on a sophisticated parametric engine and interfaces with an extensive library of standard parts. This add-on empowers users to swiftly develop high-quality mechanical engineering drawings and project documentation.
