Turn product photos into clean editable drawings for design development, user manuals, catalogs, and product communication — DXF and SVG ready for Fusion 360, SolidWorks, Rhino, and Illustrator.
Create line drawings of your final products and prototypes instantly.
Never miss a line — turn your models into clean, fully-editable drawings.
Create user manuals — explain how your products work in a simple, visual way.
Create a catalog to showcase your products in different ways.
Now your designs are documented, protecting them is the easy bit — see our patent drawings page for design-rights and IP specifics.
Photograph from front, side, and top on a plain background with even lighting. Use a telephoto lens — or zoom in from further back — for minimal perspective distortion.
PhotoCAD interprets each view and generates clean line drawings with consistent line weights for spec sheets, manuals, and catalogs.
Drop the SVG or DXF into Fusion 360, SolidWorks, or Illustrator. Use as the construction base for full CAD modeling, or as artwork in spec sheets, design briefs, manuals, and catalogs.
Browse and download free vector files — every one generated by PhotoCAD.
Industrial design moves through many visual deliverables — finished product drawings, exploded views for assembly manuals, spec sheets, brand catalogs, instructional graphics. Each one traditionally drafted from photographs by hand, taking hours per view. Multiplied across a product range, that's days lost before any creative work begins.
PhotoCAD's vision AI interprets the construction of your product photograph and reconstructs it as the clean line work designers need — not pixel approximations. From hand-built prototypes and fabricated samples to finished products and exploded component breakdowns, output is DXF, SVG, and PDF with consistent line weights and fully editable geometry.
Drop the SVG into Fusion 360, SolidWorks or Rhino as the construction base for CAD modeling, or into Illustrator and CorelDRAW for ready-to-publish manuals, catalogs, spec sheets and design briefs. The same drawings often double as the documentation behind design-rights and registered-design filings.
Best for
Industrial designers, product designers, and design studios producing design development drawings, exploded-view manuals, brand catalogs, spec sheets, product collateral, and the documentation that supports design-rights filings. Output integrates with Fusion 360, SolidWorks, Rhino, AutoCAD, Adobe Illustrator, and CorelDRAW. Particularly strong on consumer electronics, furniture, and mechanical assemblies.
