MagiCAD for AutoCAD
Turn 2D draughting into intelligent 3D MEP design within AutoCAD.
Keep AutoCAD. Gain MagiCAD.
MagiCAD works directly within your existing AutoCAD environment, adding powerful MEP capabilities to the platform you already know. Go beyond flat 2D lines with intelligent 3D MEP objects that show real detail: fittings, symbols and systems you can instantly identify. The result is accurate and efficient MEP design without ever leaving AutoCAD.
Title Block Handling
MagiCAD reads all blocks and attributes across your entire project, allowing you to manage title block information in one place. Updates can then be applied across every drawing, removing the need to update sheets manually.
Accurate Model Coordination in 3D
MagiCAD identifies collisions between building systems and flags them for review. Engineers can select any conflict and zoom directly to the problem in the 3D model, making it simple to resolve issues before they reach the construction site.
Integrated Calculations and Pressure Drops
MagiCAD performs integrated calculations for duct and pipe work dimensioning and pressure drops. By using live manufacturer data, you can verify flow rates and pressure losses instantly, ensuring all system components are sized accurately for your design.
MagiCAD for AutoCAD Modules
MagiCAD Ventilation
Design and calculate ventilation systems directly in AutoCAD. Automate duct connections, size systems quickly and run built-in calculations including flow summation, balancing and sound calculations
MagiCAD Piping
Model heating, cooling, drainage and water systems with intelligent AutoCAD-native tools. Automate pipe connections, size systems with a few clicks and work with manufacturer-verified products
MagiCAD Electrical
Design electrical, lighting, telecoms and data systems fully integrated within AutoCAD. Automatically generate switchboard schematics, run electrical calculations and produce 2D drawings to relevant standards
UK standards built in
Our UK-specific localisation ensures your projects are compliant from day one. Focus on design, not admin, with customisable templates, standardised layering conventions, and naming protocols.
2D to 3D Coordination
Design in plan view with the clarity of 2D and the intelligence of 3D. MagiCAD’s intelligent objects maintain perfect alignment between your 2D drawings and 3D coordination models automatically.
Standardised outputs
Take full control of your project outputs without the manual effort. Automate the production of accurate Bills of Materials, manage Title Blocks instantly across your project, and export coordinated drawings ready for tendering.
