CAD sits at the centre of modern design, engineering and manufacturing, where digital models shape everything from products and buildings to factory systems and infrastructure. Stories under this tag track how computer-aided design is evolving through cloud platforms, AI assistants, digital twins, simulation, remote workstations and mixed reality, showing how design teams are working faster while connecting more closely with production, operations and collaboration tools.

Readers exploring CAD will find practical insight into the software, hardware and workflows changing technical work today. Coverage spans major platform updates from companies such as Siemens, Autodesk, Dassault and Aveva, alongside developments in 3D scanning, visualisation, estimation, engineering data management and remote access. Whether you want to understand how AI is reshaping design decisions, how cloud CAD supports distributed teams, or how digital models are feeding into real-world operations, this tag offers a useful view of where design technology is heading.
