Revision as of 21:42, 31 December 2020
Introduction
External workbenches are those created by power users which haven't been integrated into the main FreeCAD source code.
Most of these workbenches can be installed from the Addon Manager (menu Tools → Addon manager). For manual installation see Installing more workbenches. If there are specific instructions or prerequisites for using these workbenches, these should be noted in each workbench's home page.
These workbenches aren't supported by the main FreeCAD development team, so they aren't tested to work with every version of FreeCAD. Questions, bug reports, and improvement requests should be made directly to the authors of the particular workbench.
The lists in this page are organized in topics, but not all of them are available in the Addon Manager. See external workbench list for an alphabetic list of those workbenches that really appear in the Addon Manager.
Current extensions
The workbenches marked with are not recommended in recent versions of the software for different reasons, for example, they are obsolete, or unmaintained, or superseded by a newer workbench, or maybe they don't work with Python 3 or with Qt5, so they should be avoided.

With FreeCAD it's possible to design a printed circuit board, and push it to KiCad; alternatively, the board can be designed in KiCad, it can be imported by FreeCAD, it can be edited with the Sketcher Workbench, and pushed back into KiCad. The 3D model, boards and enclosure, can be exported to VRML with materials properties for use in KiCad or Blender. | easyw | https://github.com/easyw/kicadStepUpMod | |||

SheetMetal | Engineering | It provides tools to design an object made of a folded sheet, such as a metal case or enclosure. The user starts with a flat sheet, then uses tools to extrude and bend the faces of the object until the desired shape is obtained. The body may then be unfolded to obtain the required flat material, and to use as input for mills or laser cutting machines. | Shai Seger and Ulrich Brammer | https://github.com/shaise/FreeCAD_SheetMetal | |||
Ship | Engineering | It is used to create structures that are common to ships. It currently is seeking a maintainer. | Jose Luis Cercós Pita | https://github.com/FreeCAD/freecad.ship | |||

dxf_library | Information and data | It installs the DXF Python importer and exporter. This was required in FreeCAD versions v0.15 and below. This is not needed anymore when using the built-in DXF importer in v0.16 and above. This library is still needed if you wish to explicitly use the Python importer, or if you wish to export directly from the 3D model. Please notice that the built-in importer is faster than the Python importer, but in many cases the Python importer produces better results. | yorikvanhavre | https://github.com/yorikvanhavre/Draft-dxf-importer | |||
DynamicData | Information and data | It is an extension that allows creating container objects to hold custom properties of any type that FreeCAD supports, for example, length or placement. These custom properties can then be used in mathematical expressions just like other properties in the Sketcher Workbench or Spreadsheet Workbench. | mwganson | https://github.com/mwganson/DynamicData | |||
InventorLoader | Information and data | It is an extension designed to import Autodesk Inventor files. Currently only Parts (IPT) can be displayed, not assemblies (IAM) nor drawings (IDW). As Inventor files contain a complete ACIS model representation, SAT and SAB files can also be imported. Export will not be supported, neither to IPT nor to SAT. | jmplonka | https://github.com/jmplonka/InventorLoader | |||
ImportNURBS | Information and data | A workbench to add support for importing 3dm files using open rhino3dm library Noteː This workbench is still under development | keithsloan52 | https://github.com/KeithSloan/ImportNURBS | |||

Reporting | Information and data | It adds tools to extract information from a FreeCAD document using SQL statements, and show the results in a spreadsheet. The SQL statements can be used from a graphical user interface or from Python scripts.

It includes a full-featured editor with auto-completion, syntax highlighting, line numbering, and code folding. Example scripts are included. Script variables can be edited dynamically through the use of a parameter dialog. This workbench also includes cqparts, which is a library that adds support for parts and assemblies with constraints on top of CadQuery. | jmwright | https://github.com/jmwright/cadquery-freecad-module/wiki | |||

ExplodedAssembly | Pseudo-assembly | It allows creating exploded views and animations of assemblies. It was previously known as "ExplodedAnimation". | JMG1 | https://github.com/JMG1/ExplodedAssembly | |||
Lattice2 | Pseudo-assembly | It provides tools for working with placements and arrays of placements. It is a sort of assembly workbench but there are no constraints nor relationships. Instead, the workbench focuses in arrays of placements that can be generated, combined, transformed, superimposed, and populated with shapes. It can also create exploded assemblies. | DeepSOIC | https://github.com/DeepSOIC/Lattice2 | |||
Manipulator | Pseudo-assembly | It is aimed at helping users in aligning, moving, rotating, and measuring 3D objects through a friendly graphical interface. | easyw | https://github.com/easyw/Manipulator | |||
Part-o-magic | Pseudo-assembly | It is an experimental workbench that provides some improvements to Std Part and PartDesign Body containers (automatic grouping, visibility automation, etc.), in order to work with documents that have multiple parts with deep feature hierarchies. It provides a Body-like container for the Part Workbench, and for other workbenches that produce solid shapes. Part-o-magic does not provide assembly constraints, but the tools included may be useful in conjunction with a true assembly workbench. | DeepSOIC | https://github.com/DeepSOIC/Part-o-magic | |||
Workfeature | Pseudo-assembly | It provides tools to produce different points, axes, and planes, in order to facilitate the creation of assemblies. This workbench is based on the older Workfeatures macro, which was hosted in the macros recipes page. Currently, the macro has a bit more functionality than the workbench, but eventually the workbench will integrate all existing tools of the macro. They also differ in the graphical user interface; the macro creates a panel next to the tree view and the task panel, while the workbench provides its tools in toolbars, just like other workbenches. | Rentlau | https://github.com/Rentlau/WorkFeature-WB | |||
Kerkythea | Rendering | It adds a simple exporter to produce XML files for use with the Kerkythea freeware renderer. | marmni | https://github.com/marmni/FreeCAD-Kerkythea/blob/master/exportToKerkythea.FCMacro | |||

Render | Rendering | It can produce high-quality rendered images, using open-source external rendering engines like Pov-ray, Luxrender, and Appleseed. Render is a replacement for the Raytracing Workbench, and uses the same templates so they are compatible. In the future Render may also support Kerkythea, Blender's EEVEE, and OpenCascade's CadRays engines. | yorikvanhavre | https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-render | |||

Deprecated extensions
- Assembly2 provides tools to create multi-part assemblies. It is unmaintained since 2016. Consider using A2plus instead.
