Integrate AutoCAD and DraftSight with your ERP

Get BOMs out of your 2D drawings and into your ERP 5x faster.

Intelligent automation that turns the BOM tables, parts lists, and block attributes in your AutoCAD, AutoCAD Mechanical, and DraftSight drawings into the items, BOMs, and routings your ERP builds from.

2D CAD integration

CADTALK ERP is an off-the-shelf integration between your 2D CAD system and your ERP. It reads the BOM data in your drawings and creates the top-level BOM and master parts in the ERP.

Plenty of manufacturers still run on 2D, and their BOMs live in drawing tables. CADTALK reads them where they are, so nobody re-keys a drawing into the ERP. Rules add routing operations and work centers based on material type, dimensions, or part type.

AutoCAD

CADTALK reads the BOM tables and block attributes in your DWG files.

AutoCAD Mechanical

AutoCAD Mechanical drawings already carry structured parts lists. CADTALK reads the parts lists and attributes as they are.

DraftSight

DraftSight shops get the same treatment: CADTALK reads the BOM data in the drawing, and DraftSight can run next to SOLIDWORKS in the same integration.

Key 2D CAD integration features

Reads BOM tables, parts lists, and block attributes from AutoCAD, AutoCAD Mechanical, and DraftSight drawings. No re-keying, no custom development.
Creates the top-level BOM and master parts in the ERP.
Adds routing operations and work centers automatically, based on material type, dimensions, or part type.

Why getting 2D CAD and your ERP talking pays off

A BOM table or parts list on a drawing is already structured data. Re-typing it into the ERP is slow, and every typo becomes a wrong part on a purchase order.

Routings without the extra step

Rules build routing operations from the data on the drawing, so planners aren't adding them by hand after the BOM lands.

One integration for 2D and 3D

Shops that run AutoCAD, AutoCAD Mechanical, or DraftSight next to SOLIDWORKS or Inventor send every source through the same rules into the same ERP.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does CADTALK support ECC Control? Yes CADTALK supports the ECC Control
How does CADTALK ERP handle revisions in SYSPRO?
CADTALK compares revisions in CAD/PDM/PLM with SYPRO Version or release field and merges the necessary changes.
How does CADTALK ERP support uploading media like images and PDF drawings to SYSPRO?
CADTALK supports uploading images and documents to SYSPRO both manually and automatically through the intelligence engine.
What fields does CADTALK ERP support in SYSPRO?
CADTALK supports every field on SYSPRO Stock Codes, Structures and Routings, including Custom form Fields, and other areas like Supplier Cross References, Warehouses, and Manufacturers.
Does CADTALK ERP add parts to the SYSPRO structures that are not in the CAD/PDM/PLM System?
Yes, users can use the CADTALK intelligence engine and the interface to search SYSPRO and add non-CAD parts to the bill of material.
Does CADTALK require a CAD license?
No, CADTALK can read most CAD files without a CAD license

Frequently Asked Questions

Our BOMs are in drawing tables, not a 3D model. Is that enough?

Yes. CADTALK reads BOM tables and block attributes directly from the drawing.

Does CADTALK work with AutoCAD Mechanical and DraftSight too?

Yes. Both are supported. CADTALK reads AutoCAD Mechanical parts lists and DraftSight BOM data the same way it reads AutoCAD drawings.

We also use SOLIDWORKS or Inventor. Can one integration cover both?

Yes. Each CAD source feeds the same ERP through the same rules. Part numbering across sources gets settled in discovery.
