Product / CAD integrations
Works with the CAD system you already use.
Machinebase integrates with the ten CAD systems the machine-building industries run on, from SOLIDWORKS and CATIA to NX, Creo and Onshape. Nothing is redrawn and nothing is modelled twice: it starts from the assembly your engineers released.

Integrations
Whatever your team designs in.
SOLIDWORKS, CATIA, Siemens NX, Creo, Solid Edge, Inventor, Fusion, AutoCAD, Onshape and FreeCAD all lead to the same place: one model of the machine that Machinebase can read.

What it does
- 01Every major CAD systemSOLIDWORKS, CATIA, Siemens NX, Creo, Solid Edge, Inventor, Fusion, AutoCAD, Onshape and FreeCAD. Whichever your team designs in, the assembly comes across with every part, sub-assembly and fastener, its name, its position and its place in the tree.
- 02It understands how parts meetMachinebase finds where parts touch and how they are held, and tells fasteners from structure, so the model is more than a picture.
- 03Your bill of materials, matchedBring the BOM with the CAD and part numbers, names and materials are matched to the geometry, so a step can call a part what your people call it.
- 04Built for big machinesAssemblies with thousands of parts load and stay responsive in the browser.
