Autocad Hydraulic Schematic
Continue to insert hydraulic components to finish the hydraulic diagram. The rest of the hydraulic drawing consists of inserting a Pressure Gauge and Check Valve at the left side of the pump and then inserting devices (Cylinder; Restrictors; Filter; Check valve and 2-ways valve) along the top of the drawing. Note: During insertion, clear the Vertical option in the Insert Component: Hydraulic. AutoCAD Electrical in theory should be called “AutoCAD Controls” or “AutoCAD Schematics” as it does far more than just electrical schematics. Single line, topology, cable block, overview, pneumatic, hydraulic, flow and P&ID diagrams can all be generated using the intelligent design software.
Hydraulic, Pneumatic, and P&ID Schematics In AutoCAD Electrical? Many of you know that AutoCAD Electrical does a wonderful job assisting in the creation and modification of Electrical Controls schematics. But did you know it can also be used to produce Hydraulic, Pneumatic, and P&ID schematics, as well? Insert hydraulic components from the icon menu. The hydraulic symbol library in AutoCAD Electrical includes filters, valves, cylinders, pressure switches, motors, pumps, meters, restrictors, quick disconnects, flow arrows and more. The hydraulic symbol library consists of all the hydraulic symbols. FREE Fluid Power schematic design software. Dzyanis July 15, 2016 19 Blogs CAD, scheme editor. For my work I use AutoCAD LT or ePlan Fluid to draw hydraulic, pneumatic, lube and P&ID schematics. Companies where I worked and where I have the work now, provide this software because the price of them is unbelievably high for the regular individual.
Scheme Editor 6.2
The new version 6.2 of Bosch Rexroth Scheme Editor has been released! And now it contains the Hydraulic library, like they promised couple months ago (see my article)!
Download the software you can by this link: http://www.boschrexroth.com/dnc-scheme-editor (78 Mb.)
Free registration is required for downloading. After launching of installing wizard the automatic updating of the previous version will be made. So you do not need to uninstall previous one. And, don’t forget to restart your computer!
After computer restarting it is necessary to import new libraries. So, finally you get 3 libraries:
Pneumatics library has been updated to ver. 1.2 and new Hydraulics and Electrical libraries have been added to the Symbol Library list.
I quickly checked new hydraulics symbols and found the library a little bit poor.
Hydraulics symbols example
For example, I did not find symbols for hydraulic valves pneumatically operated for one of my applications. But a generic schematic can be done with the existing hydraulic library and for other, more complicated systems, you can use wonderful “Symbol Modeling Tool”.

Resume: Bosch Rexroth is moving forward in the right direction and hopefully this software will continue to develop and libraries will be updated with a new symbols, at least with components what BR has in their assortment.
