SOLVESPACE is a free parametric 3D CAD tool. Applications include:
- Modeling 3D parts: draw with extrudes, revolves, helixes and
Boolean (union / difference / intersection) operations
- Modeling 2D parts: draw the part as a single section, and export
DXF, PDF, SVG; use 3D assembly to verify fit
- 3D-printed parts: export the STL or other triangle mesh expected
by most 3D printers
- Preparing CAM data: export 2D vector art for a waterjet machine
or laser cutter; or generate STEP or STL, for import into
third-party CAM software for machining
- Mechanism design: use the constraint solver to simulate planar
or spatial linkages, with pin, ball, or slide joints
- Plane and solid geometry: replace hand-solved trigonometry and
spreadsheets with a live dimensioned drawing
