Developed and marketed by Autodesk, Inc., AutoCAD was first released in December 1982 — having been purchased a year prior in its original form by Autodesk founder John Walker.

The software is currently marketed in its eighteenth generation.

As Autodesk’s flagship product, by March 1986 AutoCAD had become the most ubiquitous microcomputer design program worldwide, with functions such as “polylines” and “curve fitting”.

Prior to the introduction of AutoCAD, most other CAD programs works on mainframe computers or minicomputers, with each CAD operator (user) working at a graphical terminal or workstation.

AutoCAD is used across a range of industries, including architects, project managers and engineers, among other professions, with 750 training centers established worldwide as of 1994.

Mechanical design software built for manufacturing.

AutoCAD Mechanical design and drafting software is AutoCAD software for manufacturing.

It includes all the functionality of AutoCAD, one of the world’s leading 2D CAD mechanical design software applications, plus libraries of standards-based parts and tools for automating common mechanical CAD tasks and accelerating the mechanical design process.
