Workbenches/ja

RevitやCatiaといった多くの現代的なデザインのためのアプリケーションと同様、FreeCADはワークベンチというコンセプトを基盤にしています. ワークベンチとは言うなれば特定の作業のために特別に編成されたツールのセットです. 伝統的な家具工房では木材を扱う者のための作業台や金属部品を扱う者のための作業台があり、恐らくは全ての部品を一つに組み立てる者のための作業台もあったことでしょう.

FreeCADでは同じ考え方を採用しています. 関係する作業に従ってツールはワークベンチにグループ化されているのです.

今のところ以下のワークベンチが利用可能になっています：

複数の新しいワークベンチが開発中です. お楽しみに！

Note that sometimes a Workbench is referred to as a Module. However, Workbenches and Modules are different entities. A Module is any extension of FreeCAD, while a Workbench is a special GUI configuration that groups some toolbars and menus. Usually every Module contains its own Workbench, hence the cross-use of the name.

Built-in workbenches
The following workbenches are available on every FreeCAD installation:


 * [[Image:Workbench_Arch.svg|24px]] The Arch Workbench for working with architectural elements.
 * [[Image:Workbench_Complete.svg|24px]] The Complete Workbench hold all commands and features from all the modules and workbenches which met certain quality criteria.  Deprecated in v0.17 
 * [[Image:Workbench_Draft.svg|24px]] The Draft Workbench contains 2D tools and basic 2D and 3D CAD operations.
 * [[Image:Workbench_Drawing.svg|24px]] The Drawing Workbench for displaying your 3D work on a 2D sheet.
 * [[Image:Workbench_FEM.svg|24px]] The FEM Workbench provides Finite Element Analysis (FEA) workflow.


 * [[Image:Workbench_Image.svg|24px]] The Image Workbench for working with bitmap images.
 * [[Image:Workbench_Inspection.svg|24px]] The Inspection Workbench is made to give you specific tools for examination of shapes. It is still in development.
 * [[Image:Workbench_Mesh.svg|24px]] The Mesh Workbench for working with triangulated meshes.
 * [[Image:Workbench_OpenSCAD.svg|24px]] The OpenSCAD Workbench for interoperability with OpenSCAD and repairing Constructive Solid Geometry (CSG) model history.
 * [[Image:Workbench_Part.svg|24px]] The Part Workbench for working with CAD parts.


 * [[Image:Workbench_PartDesign.svg|24px]] The Part Design Workbench for building Part shapes from sketches.
 * [[Image:Workbench_Path.svg|24px]] The Path Workbench is used to produce G-Code instructions. It is still in a stage of development.
 * [[Image:Workbench_Plot.svg|24px]] The Plot Workbench is used to edit and save output plots created from other modules and tools.
 * [[Image:Workbench_Points.svg|24px]] The Points Workbench for working with point clouds.
 * [[Image:Workbench_Raytracing.svg|24px]] The Raytracing Workbench for working with ray-tracing (rendering)


 * [[Image:Workbench_Reverse_Engineering.svg|24px]] The Reverse Engineering Workbench is intended to provide specific tools to convert shapes/solids/meshes into parametric FreeCAD-compatible features. (under development)
 * [[Image:Workbench_Robot.svg|24px]] The Robot Workbench for studying robot movements.
 * [[Image:Workbench_Ship.svg|24px]] The Ship Workbench FreeCAD-Ship works over Ship entities, that must be created on top of provided geometry.
 * [[Image:Workbench_Sketcher.svg|24px]] The Sketcher Workbench for working with geometry-constrained sketches.
 * [[Image:Workbench_Spreadsheet.svg|24px]] The Spreadsheet Workbench for creating and manipulating spreadsheet data.


 * [[Image:Workbench_Start.svg|24px]] The Start Center Workbench allows you to quickly jump to one of the most common workbenches.
 * [[Image:Workbench_TechDraw.svg|24px]] The TechDraw Workbench is the more advanced and feature-rich successor of Drawing
 * [[Image:Workbench_Test.svg|24px]] The Test Framework Workbench is for debugging FreeCAD.
 * [[Image:Workbench_Web.svg|24px]] The Web Workbench provides you with a browser window instead of the 3D-View within FreeCAD.

External workbenches
ワークベンチを切り替えるとインターフェイスが変わってそのツールが利用可能になります. ツールバー、コマンドバー、さらにはインターフェイスの他の部分も新しいワークベンチに切り替わりますが、シーンの内容は変わりません. 例えば製図ワークベンチで2D形状を描画し、さらにパートワークベンチを使ってそこから作業を続けるといったことが可能です.

The external workbenches page has some information and tutorials on some of them, and the FreeCAD Addons project aims at gathering them and making them easily installable from within FreeCAD.

New workbenches are in development, stay tuned!
