1.AutoCAD software is an automatic computer-aided design software, can be used to draw two-dimensional drawings and basic three-dimensional design, through which you do not need to know how to program, you can automatically draw, so it is widely used around the world, can be used for civil engineering and construction, decorative furnishings, industrial drawings, engineering drawings, the electronics industry, apparel processing, and other aspects of the field.

2. SolidWorks software is the leading, mainstream 3D CAD solutions, powerful, easy to learn and use and technological innovation of the three characteristics. Using it can provide different design solutions, reduce errors in the design process and improve product quality. Applications include aerospace, locomotive, food, machinery, defense, transportation, molds and dies, electronic communications, medical devices, entertainment industry, daily necessities/consumer goods, and discrete manufacturing.

3. The essential difference between the two software is that AutoCAD two-dimensional drawing, SolidWorks is mainly used for three-dimensional drawing.
