You’ve designed the parts.

Now, connect them.

Snap Mating in Onshape lets you drag one part toward another and preview how they’ll connect in your digital assembly.

Use keyboard shortcuts to flip or rotate the alignment before placing it.

Good designs deserve to make it off the screen.

We're teaming up with Formlabs at to show how cloud-native CAD and 3D printing work together.

Stop by for live demos featuring Onshape and the Formlabs Form 4.

See how engineers can collaborate on designs, make changes faster, and bring their ideas to life.

Some lines are just there for moral support. 🤝

Construction geometry in Onshape helps you position and dimension your sketches without adding extra geometry to the final profile.

Here's how to put those reference lines to work.

Engineers love options.

But managing 1,000 of them? That's another story...

Evan Reese (aka The Onsherpa) uses a Quarto board game to show how Onshape Configurations make complex designs easier to manage.

Define each attribute independently, create the combinations you need, and manage thousands of possible variations within a single model.

See how it works. 👇

Why wait for a new CAD feature when you can build your own? 🛠️

With Onshape FeatureScript MCP, you can use AI to create custom, reusable CAD features tailored to your engineering needs.

Need a catalog-ready sprocket? A fully parametric water tank? Maybe something more complex?

You can create the tools to design them, right inside Onshape.

Keep refining, customizing, and reusing those tools across your projects.

Uploading the same company logo for the 100th time? Yeah, there's a better way. 🙌

With Onshape image libraries, your whole team can access the same logos, labels, and symbols right when they need them.

No more hunting down files or uploading the same images again and again. 😅

This robot just landed on TIME's Best Inventions of 2026 list... 🤖👀

Meet Thorvald, the autonomous agricultural robot by Saga Robotics that's changing how vineyards protect their crops.

The team uses Onshape to design, collaborate, and iterate on Thorvald's modular architecture, helping bring this innovative technology to life.

Big congrats to the Saga Robotics team. We love to see this kind of engineering get the spotlight. 👏
