SolidWorks · ASME Y14.5 · STEP
Your CAD. Drafter. Integrated.
Drafter’s 2D drawings stay parametrically associated with your 3D models, so a change to the model updates the sheet. Your team can be up and running in under an hour.
A native SolidWorks add-in.
It docks beside your model, and every tolerance on the drawing stays in sync with it.


Select a drawing from your Drafter library to import to SolidWorks.



- Imported drawing
- Placed GD&T callouts
- Applied MBD
Drawings in minutes, without leaving SolidWorks.
Drafter and SolidWorks sync both ways, so your models and drawings stay linked.
SolidWorks drawings done in 4 minutes.
Drafter keeps the link live in both directions: changes in CAD show up instantly in your drawings, and edits in Drafter stay synced with your 3D models.
Send from your CAD
Push the model straight from SolidWorks or NX, without exporting a file or leaving the window you are already in.
Drafter drafts the sheet
Tolerances, datums and callouts land on a standardized ASME Y14.5-2018 drawing for every part.
It comes back linked
The drawing returns to your CAD as a live link. Change the model and the drawing follows; edit in Drafter and the model stays in step.
Not on SolidWorks?
Drafter also runs natively inside Siemens NX, with Teamcenter support for PLM teams, and reads STEP as a fallback. If you use another CAD, tell us and it goes on our build list.
