2D CAD for engineers
Sketch a bracket, a plate or a set-out the moment you need it — at your desk, in the workshop or on site — and send a clean DXF or a scaled PDF straight on.
START DRAWING — FREEPrecise geometry
Draw at real size in millimetres with snapping to the grid, end points and tangents. Set exact lengths with resize, build profiles with offset, and finish corners with fillet and chamfer.
Dimensions that read like a drawing
Linear, angular, radius (R), diameter (Ø) and arc length dimensions, plus centre marks and centre lines for holes and slots.
Straight to manufacture
Export DXF R12 in millimetres for laser, plasma, waterjet and CNC. See how to prepare a DXF for cutting.
Drawings to send
Lay parts out on A4 or A3 at 1:5, 1:10, 1:20 or any standard scale up to 1:2500, with a title block on the print-ready sheet.
Questions
Does BenCAD do 3D?
No. BenCAD is 2D CAD. For 3D parts, use a 3D tool and keep BenCAD for quick 2D details, set-outs and cutting files.
