What’s new in AutoCAD 2019?

CAD technology introduces features and techniques that revolutionizes the way we work with software and product development. With the introduction of AutoCAD 2019, users will be able to enjoy better work optimization and enhanced performance with toolset add-ons.

Below are some of the enhanced toolset features, which the 2019 version will bring about.

Architectural toolset

The architectural toolset will help designers in composing intelligent and eye appealing designs. This added feature of AutoCAD 2019 allows the designer to make use of specialized building design features and 8000 plus intelligent architectural object-styles to speed up their architectural drawing and documentation.

 Mechanical toolset

AutoCAD 2019 lets the users to integrate their ideas and thoughts in one part of their drawing with this improvised mechanical toolset. Users can use specialized mechanical design features and 700,000+ intelligent manufacturing parts, features, and symbols to speed up their design process.

 Electrical toolset

The electrical toolset is an enhanced feature of this AutoCAD 2019 version. This helps in efficient electrical documentation control and quick modification with its industry specific features. It also enables users to make the best use of specialized electrical design components and 65,000+ intelligent electrical symbols for enhanced productivity.

 (MEP) Mechanical, Electrical & Plumbing toolset

With MEP toolset in place, users will be able to redefine their design process on the whole. The MEP toolset features specific MEP engineering features and 10,500+ intelligent mechanical, electrical, and plumbing objects, which will enable the designers to draft, design, and document building systems in no time.

 Plant 3D toolset

This, specialized plant design and engineering toolset enables the user to efficiently produce P&IDs and then integrate them into a 3D plant design model. It also aids in quick creation of schematic diagrams, plant layouts, and other drawings.

 

Map 3D toolset

Map 3D toolset allows user to map features to incorporate GIS and CAD data to assist in planning, design, and data management. The feature also allows to access spatial data stored in files, databases, and web services, and aggregate it with the AutoCAD design data.

 Raster Design toolset

Raster design toolset is enhanced to support edit-scanned drawings and convert the raster images into DWG objects. This is made possible with the quick to edit, cleanup, transform images, and manipulate raster entities features.

Compared to the other version, AutoCAD 2019 has a lot of promising features, which lets one develop designs in the way they have visualized and thought of. This new version also showcases industry specific toolset, which will redefine the whole process of designing and conceptualization.

Technology Innovation Could Enable Building Digital Twins on your own

With open source solution integrating Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) and deploying efficient run-time becomes simple. One such innovation is the ANSYS Twin Builder, which aids in determination of ideal maintenance program, performance optimization, and generation of insightful data to improve products which are next in line through the following features.

Building

In the recent trends, open source technology has come up with a workable solution to overcome the design and building challenges encountered in the field of product engineering. As per the insights of researches it is expected that ANSYS Twin builder will allow the users to go in for multiple modeling which will have domains and languages, extensive 0D application-specific libraries, and third-party tool (including 1D) integration.

This feature, will also allow for reduced 3D order modeling (ROM) creation, product composition through its embedded software integration process and other accurate physics-based twin twice components.

Validation

Initially, building a digital twin was a complicated and challenging process. The ANSYS Twin Builder has changed the above situation and combines everything into a packaged and fluid work flow with intuitive interface features. Through this, users will be able to validate an accurate representation of their real-life products and optimize product performance up to 25 percent by using multidomain simulation with post-processing, rapid human-machine interface (HMI) prototyping, system optimization, and XiL (model-in-the-loop/software-in-the-loop) integration.

Deployment

Through deployment users will be able to quickly connect to supported IIoT platforms and will be able to export/deploy generated models in a timely fashion. Through this, users will be able to improve their operations with a 10 – 20 percent reduction in their maintenance costs.

Implications:

Compared to the other technological innovation, the  ANSYS Twin Builder allows engineers to quickly build, validate and deploy these digital representations of physical products without any hassle. This new trend will also lower the technical and financial costs involved in product maintenance.

Autodesk Releases Revit 2019

Autodesk released the latest version of its modeling software, “Revit 2019” on April 11, 2018. The updates in Revit 2019 are a result of the suggestions and feedback provided by the users on the Revit Ideas page. It added some great and lucrative features across three main categories of Design, Optimize, and Connect.

Addition of the “Or” Variable In Filters

The most famous demand or request on the Revit Ideas Page was for “view graphics” with the “or” option added to view filters. This feature gives users flexibility and power over setting up custom views and a better modeling environment with more immersive 3D features.

Double fill patterns

Autodesk Revit 2019 includes many new design features, including new double fill pattern (foreground and background) files and a library of more realistic renderings of textures for materials like carpets, ceilings, concrete, glass, leather, etc.

 

Support for Multiple Monitors

Today, the user works with multiple views open at once and are looking for better ways to manage them.  Therefore, Revit 2019 has new Tabbed Views which deliver a modern experience that lets user maximize their working space. Also, it now allows the user to drag views out of the Revit application window to secondary monitors as a means to adjust user’s working space as per their requirement.

 

Levels in 3D

Revit 2019 supports new levels in 3D views feature, which enables users to visualize building levels in orthographic and perspective 3D views. The user can arrange and organize views exactly as per their requirements. It also adds uncropped perspective to the new version which allows brings them immersive 3D experience without boundaries.

 

 

Split Railings

Revit 2019 incorporates the split tool to split railings with a single click. Users can now have separate path sketches for disparate elements. This new release makes it easier for the users to build complicated railings and pipe networks.

Extended Global Capabilities 

Revit 2019 has an entirely new content library for Architects and Engineers. The main component is new content that facilitates multidisciplinary workflow capabilities. This new feature makes Revit work better for users in DACH countries like Germany, Austria, and Switzerland.

In an interview with Architosh, Chris Yanchar, Director, Building Design Products at Autodesk, stated that the continuous user feedback and requests helped Revit 2019 to enhance its designing features and optimize user workflow.

Institutional Training Services from CADD Centre

With the boom in the technical industry, thousands of graduate engineers are pass out every year across the nation. Even after professionally qualified, these candidates are not directly employable as they fail to meet the needs of the industry.
