For that, I think you would want a 3d solid modeling program. The best known program in that space that I know of is SolidWorks. We were looking at using it for a local company run by a friend that was doing one-off conversion of vehicles from internal combustion engines to full battery electric, but it was damn bloody expensive. You could get a student version, if you could prove you were a student, but the models it allowed you to make were simple, and were intentionally incompatible with the models made by the professional version.
I’m sure there are others in this space, but I don’t know of any names off the top of my head.
- heisenzombie 6y agoOne option you could try in this vein is OnShape, it’s “cloud” CAD written by some ex-Solidworks engineers. It’s free (gratis) unless you want to make your models private, and is quite surprisingly good. I would personally always pick it over Sketchup because I much prefer parametric solid modelling.
