About

FreeMILL, a sub-set of our commercial CNC software, is a free milling module for programming CNC mills & routers. Yes, completely free CAM software with no time limits, number of tries limit, number of saves limit or lines of code limit! Create a toolpath where the tool is driven along a set of parallel planes to cut your geometry. Create both Roughing and Finishing toolpaths. Run full cutting and material simulation of toolpaths. Output G code to your CNC milling tool of choice. MecSoft Corporation is a developer of standalone, as well as integrated CAD/CAM software solutions for both the subtractive (CNC machining) and additive (3D printing) manufacturing industries. Founded in 1997, MecSoft is a technology leader that develops, markets and supports our CAM software products from our world headquarters in Irvine, CA. With a focus on developing easy, powerful, and affordable CAD/CAM software solutions.

About

Netfabb® software includes efficient build preparation capabilities alongside tools for optimizing designs for additive manufacturing, simulating metal additive processes, and planning for CNC post-processing. Import models from a variety of CAD formats and use repair tools to quickly correct errors. Make your models production ready by adjusting wall thicknesses, smoothing rough areas, and more. Identify areas that require support and use semi-automated tools to generate support structures. Convert organic, free-form mesh files to boundary representation models and make them available in CAD in STEP, SAT, or IGES format. Use 2D and 3D packing algorithms to optimally place parts within the build volume. Create custom reports that include critical information for manufacturing and quoting. Develop build strategies and define toolpath parameters for maximum surface quality, part density, and speed.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • I am surprised with the bunch of possibilities but I think ends up being very expensive just for a CNC wood machine and hobbies with 3d printers.
  • It's free. It will generate a surfacing tool path to make a flat board flat, but a little thinner than before.

Cons

  • I did not like the logical sequence to use it when you test the Trial for FreeMill as I don´t know what is free and what is not. Colors darkening and a dark mode is a must for me as my eyes suffer with the screen lights. Hate that light purple color.
  • I get it, it's the free version of your offerings, so I don't have huge expectations, but not even having the ability to contour or pocket a hole is so reduced as to make it useless.
