How to Create a Mechanical Diagram

mechanical-diagram-example
Mechanical Engineering drawing is a type of technical drawing that helps analyze complex engineering systems. Mechanical Engineering diagrams are often a set of detailed drawings used for engineering or construction projects. Making Mechanical Engineering diagram involves many different elements that can be managed using ConceptDraw PRO. You can design elements for drawing parts, assembly, pneumatic, and hydraulic systems for mechanical engineering. With ConceptDraw PRO you can easily create and communicate the Mechanical Engineering diagram of any complexity.

How to Create a New Library

Create a New Library
Sometimes, when creating a diagram, you need to use a large set of elements from different libraries. If you are using ConceptDraw , in such case, we recommend you to create a new library, which consists of vector library objects from other ConceptDraw libraries. You also can add some custom unique objects into such library. Each object that contains in a new library can be provided with a unique description and keyword list. Thus, the new library and its objects will be indexed to be searched and used in the further diagrams.

How to Add a Self-Drawn Object to any Library

Create diagram in ConceptDraw with self-drawn objects
One of the key elements of ConceptDraw PRO solutions are the libraries, containing a set of associated objects. Using these collections of business oriented vector objects, you can quickly get started making the diagram in the theme you need. The library collection can be supplemented by creating new or editing existing objects. You can create your own unique library just by dragging objects with the mouse. Library objects can be customized and saved for later use. You can change the scaling, color, line weight, label, and even the fill pattern of an object to use in custom drawings and diagrams. Your custom objects even can be searched for the next time you need to use them.

How to Create an Electrical Diagram Using ConceptDraw PRO

Electrical Diagram sample
There are many of different electric circuit symbols that can be used in a circuit diagram. Knowing how to read circuit diagrams is a useful skill not only for professionals, but for any person who can start creating his own small home electronic projects. The circuit diagram shows the scheme of a location of components and connections of the electrical circuit using a set of standard symbols. It can be use for graphical documentation of an electrical circuit components. The ability to  create electrical diagrams and schematic using ConceptDraw PRO is delivered by the Electrical Engineering solution. The solution supplied with samples, templates and libraries of design elements for drawing electrical schematics, digital and analog logic, circuit and wiring schematics and diagrams, power systems diagrams, maintenance and repair diagrams for electronics and electrical engineering.

How to Create Cisco Network Diagram Using ConceptDraw Libraries

Cisco network topology
Cisco Network chart can be a great start for detailed network documentation, as well as serve as a visual instruction for new IT staff, or as a detailed illustration for a presentation. The easiest way to design Cisco Network diagram using standard Cisco product symbols is using ConceptDraw PRO powered by Cisco Network Diagrams solution. The Cisco Network Diagrams solution uses Cisco network symbols and icons to to visually document the Cisco network topology and design of Cisco network diagrams. Using ConceptDraw libraries you can access a wide array of Cisco network icons, so you can quickly prototype a new network or document an existing one.
The vector stencils library "Resistors" contains 14 element symbols of resistors.
Use these shapes for drawing electronic schematics, circuit diagrams and electrical drawings in the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with the Electrical Engineering solution from the Engineering area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.

How to Draw a Map of North America Using ConceptDraw PRO

North America Map with Capitals
Geographic maps, cardiograms, and thematic maps are often used for geographical visualization of business information. Any country can inspire a wealth of geopolitical statistical data. A common way of assimilating this data is to create maps that convey a particular theme or subject matter in relation to a specific geographical area. Known as thematic maps, they cover themes such as population density, average rainfall, or political allegiance, differentiating the data by using graphical elements and annotation. Thematic maps contrast general reference maps, which tend to display information on a variety of subjects — vegetation, topology, roads and highways, for example. A thematic map will always focus on one particular subject matter. ConceptDraw PRO can be helpful as a tool for creating maps of countries and regions of the world. It allows you to draw continental maps quickly and easily using the special templates and vector stencils libraries.
The vector stencils library "Terminals and connectors" contains 43 element symbols of terminals, connectors, plugs, polarized connectors, jacks, coaxial cables, and conductors.
Use it for drawing the wiring diagrams, electrical layouts, electronic schematics, and circuit diagrams in the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with the Electrical Engineering solution from the Engineering area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.
