Question: software for Pneumatics/Hydraulics system desing #5

Open AdamJel opened 3 years ago

AdamJel commented 3 years ago

Hi, thank you for making this list. I found the cadquery thanks to it.

I like the concep of aaC ( as a Code). E.g. EDaaC (Electronic Design as a Code) - http://github.com/xesscorp/skidl, or CADaaC - cadquery. Btw, I know to *aaC concept from IaaC, which is also great (Terraform).

And therefor I would like to have similar software for hydraulics and pneumatics systems as well. Do you know about any and would you consider to add separe lists for them? I think, this perfectly follows the open philosophy in general and IMO only if we can have open access to all desings, being it software/electrical/hydraulic, etc. we can achieve next gen desings faster.

If anybody knows about a code based (plain text based) design systems, please, share it :)

Are you looking for software to make the design drawings? I don't know the requirements for hydraulics and pneumatic system design. I know there is a tool for latex to generate electrical schematics by code: https://www.overleaf.com/learn/latex/CircuiTikz_package

Maybe there exist some for hydraulics and pneumatics as well. But I don't know about any.
