What Is myCADtools?

myCADtools is a collection of productivity tools and add-ins designed to support SOLIDWORKS users in their everyday design work. It helps users handle common CAD tasks more efficiently by adding practical utilities that support modelling, drawing, documentation and workflow-related activities.

For teams that spend time on repetitive actions, file preparation, drawing updates or standardised CAD processes, myCADtools can help reduce manual effort and improve consistency. The value lies in supporting the smaller daily tasks that can slow users down when they are repeated across multiple projects, models or drawings.

Highlights:

  • Productivity tools for SOLIDWORKS users

  • Add-ins for everyday CAD workflows

  • Support for repetitive task reduction

  • Tools for design and documentation work

  • Practical utilities for CAD efficiency

SOLIDWORKS Add-Ins

Why Use myCADtools?

SOLIDWORKS users often spend valuable time on tasks that are necessary but repetitive. myCADtools helps reduce that friction by adding useful tools that support faster, more consistent CAD work. This can help users spend less time on manual workflow steps and more time on design, review and project delivery.
