Kinematic sketch software

Kinematic sketch software

Kinematic sketch software

(OP)
Hi!

I'm searching for a software to draw kinematic sketches in 2D (motors, reducers, gears, bearings, pulleys...).
Does anybody know one?

Thanks

There are a number available and a search engine would probably find most of them.

Mmm. I think I didn't explain myself correctly. Maybe my bad english...

I mean a software for making schematic drawings of hydraulic and pneumatics circuits...
Do you know anyone apart from Autocad and that kind of 2D design programs...?

RE: Kinematic sketch software

Did you try MegaCad from MegaTech?

RE: Kinematic sketch software

Some people love Visio for that kind of thing.

I'm not one of those people.

Mikares,

Any low-buck 2D CAD software will work just fine if all you want is a simple schematic diagram.  You can create details for all of the symbols you need, and then it is just a matter of pasting them into the diagram.

However, if you want some simulation and analysis capabilities to go with you schematics, you'll have to step up and plunk down the big bucks for something like MathWorks tools:  http://www.mathworks.com/products/simmechanics/

Good luck.

OK. Thanks
