Draw Norm: a second set of eyes for mechanical drawings
An early-access AI service that checks mechanical drawings against listed standards, marks findings on the drawing, and presents a report for engineer review.
- For
- Mechanical design and manufacturing engineers
- Worth noticing
- The checklist names 11 ISO standards; ASME Y14.5 is listed for drawings prepared to ASME.
Field notes
The page lays out a six-stage review covering the title block, views, dimensioning, tolerances/GD&T, notes and surface finish, and manufacturability. A sample flange report marks five issues, including an absent tolerance for a Ø30 bearing and an undefined datum; findings are grouped by severity, with a measurement table and PDF/CSV report listed as outputs. The displayed demo replays a prepared report rather than demonstrating live analysis speed on a visitor's drawing.
