NEOCAD / Mechanical design

CAD / PLM / ERP

AI for
engineering teams.

The AI assistant for parametric CAD models, component reuse and 2D drawings. It connects designs to PLM and ERP data; engineers review the results.

Workflows and demos

NEOCAD at work in CAD.

Three recorded workflows: model editing, comparison and 2D drawings. NEOCAD V2 offers complete connectors for every supported CAD system.

Modification and mating components

Crosspiece and pin, bushing and fork-seat summary. — Autodesk Inventor · Workflow 04 · 05:35 · Pin diameter increased by 1 mm, with checks still open.Crosspiece, bushings and seats: consider the context of the change.Full recording

Compare before reusing

Assembly and subassembly comparison in the NEOCAD panel. — Autodesk Inventor · Workflow 02 · 01:05 · Comparing structure, materials and masses from the BOM.Two available models compared for reuse, not a search of a PLM archive.Full recording

Prepare and review the drawing

Drawing draft and partial-delivery message. — Autodesk Inventor · Workflow 08 · 12:00 · Incomplete draft: technical review still required.Drawing generated from the component: views, annotations and missing data need review.Full recording

Your engineering history

Prepare your engineering history. Find what matters.

ETL and indexing

Prepares and indexes CAD/PDM/PLM data and company documents in the NEOCAD knowledge base for search and AI agents.

How ETL works

Semantic and geometric CAD search

Find similar components and previous designs in connected engineering records, using a description or geometry. CAD Search & Inspector helps compare them; engineers assess reuse.

From CAD to company data

Design in CAD.
Connect data and tasks.

The CAD model

Geometry and constraints.
History and knowledge.

NEOCAD connects geometry, dimensions, constraints and drawings to previous designs and company data, within the CAD tools you already use.

Native parametric editing with the complete CAD connectors in NEOCAD V2.

From the model to company data

PLM & ERP

Connect revisions, BOMs and jobs. Keep ERP costs for existing components separate from should-cost estimates for new ones.

From CAD to BOMs and costs

One reference, different sources

CAD / PLM
Model, components and revision define the context.
ERP / should-cost
Recorded costs for existing parts; separate estimates for new parts.

Informational diagram, not a software screenshot. Access and operations depend on configured connectors.

From the model to the process

Workflow Automation

The Workflow Builder is intended to connect CAD, search and business data. Define steps, connectors and checks with the team.

Assembly and quality-check findings in the NEOCAD panel. — Workflow 07 · 02:10 · Materials, duplicates, constraints and interference to review.Checks in Inventor, not the Workflow Builder editor. Actions require confirmation.Full recording

Workflow / process example

From model to cost assessment.

Interactive process illustration, not the NEOCAD interface. No operations are executed.

Select a node to explore its role.

01 / CAD model

The engineering context.

Geometry, dimensions and constraints guide subsequent tasks. CAD remains the design tool.

Context: model and engineering requirement.

02 / Engineering search

Find previous designs.

Similar components and available information to assess for reuse, subject to engineering approval.

To assess: similarities and reuse opportunities.

03 / Engineering review

The engineer’s review.

Engineers check relevance and correctness. The node represents a responsibility, not a software approval feature.

To configure: review arrangements and responsibilities.

04 / BOM and revision

Keep the design reference.

BOMs and revisions connect components to PLM data and cost assessment. Access and operations depend on the configured connector.

Context: components, BOM and revision.

05 / Recorded costs

For existing components.

The path shows ERP cost retrieval, separate from estimates: no automatic writes, orders or inventory movements.

Source: ERP cost data.

06 / Should-cost

For new components.

Should-cost estimates new component costs; it is not a purchase price or an incurred cost. Branches distinguish sources, not implemented conditional logic.

Source: estimate to assess in the engineering context.

Confirm the process, connectors and review arrangements with NEOCAD. The diagram does not demonstrate available triggers or automatic branching.
