Scan2CAD Automate is used in conjunction with the Scan2CAD app (available for macOS and Windows.) With a simple command, you can execute the app to run through whichever automation processes you wish. Due to the simplicity and accessibility of the API, the integration of this new feature within companies is extremely pain-free.

How can Scan2CAD Automate improve your workflow? With this flexible API, the possibilities are endless but a few simple examples would be:

  • Batch-convert thousands of technical drawings to DXF/DWG in a single click
  • Integrate Scan2CAD with your solution offering market-leading conversions to your users.
  • Automate repetitive tasks for a manufacturing process-line, converting files to CAM/CNC format, reducing countless manhours.

The possibilities are only limited by your imagination.
