FreeCAD es un modelador CAD 3D paramétrico de propósito general. El desarrollo es completamente Fuente libre (Licencia LGPL). FreeCAD esta orientado a Diseño mecánico y diseño de productos pero tambien ajusta en un amplio rango de usos alrededor de ingenieria, tal como arquitectura u otras especialidades de ingenieria.

FreeCAD presenta herramientas similares a Catia, SolidWorks ó Solid Edge, y por lo tanto tambien cae dentro de la categoría de MCAD, PLM, CAx y CAE. Es un modelado basado en características paramétricas con una arquitectura de programa modular el cual lo hace sencilla de proveer funcionalidades adicionales sin modificar el núcleo del sistema.

As with many modern 3D CAD modelers it has many 2D components in order to sketch 2D shapes or extract design details from the 3D model to create 2D production drawings, but direct 2D drawing (like AutoCAD LT) is not the focus, neither are animation or organic shapes (like Maya, 3ds Max, Blender or Cinema 4D), although, thanks to its wide adaptability, FreeCAD might become useful in a much broader area than its current focus.

FreeCAD makes heavy use of all the great open-source libraries that exist out there in the field of Scientific Computing. Among them are OpenCascade, a powerful CAD kernel, Coin3D, an incarnation of Open Inventor, Qt, the world-famous UI framework, and Python, one of the best scripting languages available. FreeCAD itself can also be used as a library by other programs.

FreeCAD is also fully multi-platform, and currently runs flawlessly on Windows and Linux/Unix and Mac OSX systems, with the exact same look and functionality on all platforms.

Sobre el royecto FreeCAD

The FreeCAD project was started as far as 2001, as described in its history page.

FreeCAD is maintained and developed by a community of enthusiastic developers and users (see the contributors page). They work on FreeCAD voluntarily, in their free time. They cannot guarantee that FreeCAD contains or will contain everything you might wish, but they will usually do their best! The community gathers on the FreeCAD forum, where most of the ideas and decisions are discussed. Feel free to join us there!
