Alcuni utenti esperti hanno esteso FreeCAD con vari ambienti aggiuntivi personalizzati, che non sono ancora integrati nel codice sorgente FreeCAD, ma che sono facili da aggiungere a un'installazione FreeCAD esistente. Le istruzioni sono disponibili nelle pagine indicate in seguito:

Most extensions can be installed from the Addon Manager, menu Tools → Addon manager; specific instructions are provided in each extension page.

BIM
mira a implementare gli strumenti e il flusso di lavoro per Building Information Modeling (BIM) in FreeCAD.
Defeaturing
fornisce gli strumenti per modificare i modelli STEP rimuovendo le funzioni selezionate.
DynamicData
consente di creare degli oggetti contenitore per contenere delle proprietà personalizzate.
Flamingo
una serie di comandi e oggetti FreeCAD personalizzati che consentono di velocizzare il disegno di strutture e tubazioni.
Kicad StepUp
ha lo scopo di aiutare gli utenti di KiCad e FreeCAD a collaborare nel design elettrico (ECAD) e meccanico (MCAD).
WorkFeatures
aggiunge una vasta gamma di oggetti di supporto come piani di allineamento o assi e degli strumenti di aiuto nel posizionare e allineare gli oggetti lungo questi oggetti di supporto.
Manipulator
ha lo scopo di aiutare gli utenti di FreeCAD ad allineare, spostare, ruotare e misurare gli oggetti 3D attraverso una GUI amichevole.
SheetMetal
fornisce strumenti per progettare e dispiegare parti in lamiera.
WebTools
contiene una serie di strumenti per comunicare con i servizi Web dall'interno di FreeCAD.

General

  • Defeaturing provides tools to edit STEP models by removing selected features.
  • DynamicData allows creation of container objects for holding custom properties.
  • WebTools contains a series of tools to communicate with Web services from within FreeCAD.

Architecture and facilities

Assembly

As of FreeCAD 0.18 there is no official assembly workbench. However, several external tools have been created or are in development to manipulate objects to produce assemblies.

Note: assembly workbenches are generally incompatible with each other. If you create an assembly with one of them, you should not use another workbench to work with the same assembly. You should re-assemble the parts in the new workbench.

  • A2plus provides tools to create multi-part assemblies. It is a fork and extension of the older Assembly2 Workbench.
  • Assembly3 (github link) is in development and requires a forked version of FreeCAD with some core changes. It is the most complex solution and supports things like interactive kinematics.
  • Assembly4 (github link) is a solution based on the forked FreeCAD branch that Assembly3 uses. It does not work with constraints at all and focuses on building structures with Local Coordinate Systems (LCS). This is computationally friendly, and should allow for creating large assemblies with many parts. This is the newest of the assembly workbenches and is intended more as a demonstrator.
  • Manipulator is aimed at helping users in aligning, moving, rotating and measuring 3D objects through a friendly graphical interface.
  • WorkFeatures adds a wide range of helper objects such as alignment planes or axes, and tools to help you to position and align objects along those helper objects.

Engineering

  • EM Workbench ElectroMagnetic Workbench for FastFieldSolvers free tools.
  • KicadStepUp is aimed at helping both KiCad and FreeCAD users in collaborating with electrical (ECAD) and mechanical (MCAD) design.
  • LCInterlocking (github link) tools to create parts for laser-cutters. Add tabs and hinges. Export to SVG.
  • SheetMetal provides tools to design and unfold sheet metal parts.
