Hi, we’ve started exploring how AI fits into everyday engineering workflows and want to hear what’s working for others. Are there any AI tools or plugins you’re using (or experimenting with) for design, modeling or CAD automation? What’s actually useful for you? 

As part of this exploration, we’ve put together a few pieces looking at how AI is being applied in engineering today:

  • Automating Macro Creation with AI – Interview with Mecagent’s CEO: 

Automating Macro Creation with AI – Interview with Mecagent’s CEO

— on integrating AI directly into CAD to automate repetitive tasks.

  • We Tested 7 Text-to-CAD Tools – Are They Actually Useful for Engineers?

We Tested 7 Text-to-CAD Tools – Are They Actually Useful for Engineers?

 — test of current AI-driven CAD generators and how well they handle practical mechanical design prompts.

What tools or approaches are you finding most useful in your own workflow?

Text-to-CAD tools for modeling enclosures
Has anyone tested text-to-CAD tools for quick concept modeling of enclosures? I'm designing a small plastic enclosure for a PCB-based sensor module (around 60x40x20 mm) and was wondering if any of the new text-to-CAD... read more

Solidworks or Inventor for sheet metal design?
Hey, I need to create a small sheet metal enclosure for a power supply unit—mostly bent parts in 1.5 mm steel, with tabs, cutouts, and a few fastener points. I’m new to CAD and... read more

Best file format for tight-tolerance parts with GD&T annotations
Hi, I'm designing a housing component for an optical assembly, machined from anodized 7075-T6 aluminum, with several ±0.01 mm tolerances and GD&T callouts for perpendicularity and flatness. The part is quite compact (80x60x40 mm)... read more
