Description
OwlCAD is a fully online parametric 3D CAD editing tool designed specifically for individuals creating parts for 3D printing. It effectively bridges the gap between entry-level software that users may outgrow and advanced professional CAD applications that require installation, user accounts, and a steep learning curve.
With OwlCAD, every dimension remains adjustable, allowing for seamless model updates whenever a value is modified, which eliminates the need for redoing work. The software ensures that booleans are manifold by default, so when you export your designs, you won't encounter any leftover ghost geometry in your slicer. Furthermore, it offers clearance presets tailored for press, slip, and loose fits, ensuring that holes are appropriately sized for FDM printing, while a printability check highlights overhangs, flags thin walls, and verifies watertightness before export.
OwlCAD boasts features such as sketches with constraints, per-edge fillets and chamfers, patterns, sweeps, and lofts, in addition to assemblies that include mates and a bill of materials. It also provides 32 different generators for various components like gears, threads, enclosures, Gridfinity bins, bearings, and hinges. The software supports the import of STL, 3MF, OBJ, STEP, and OpenSCAD formats, while also allowing for the export of STL, 3MF, OBJ, GLB, STEP, DXF, and SVG files.
Best of all, there’s nothing to install and no account is required to get started, making it accessible to anyone interested in 3D design. With OwlCAD, users can focus on their creative process without the hurdles typically associated with traditional CAD software.
Description
SOLVESPACE is an open-source parametric 3D CAD software released under the GPLv3 license, allowing users to design 3D components and create drawings through various operations such as extruding, revolving, or using Boolean methods like union, difference, and intersection. It also enables the modeling of 2D parts by allowing users to draw a single section and export it in formats like DXF, PDF, and SVG, while the 3D assembly feature aids in checking component fit. For those interested in 3D printing, parts can be exported in STL or other mesh formats compatible with the majority of 3D printers. Additionally, it supports the preparation of CAM data, enabling the export of 2D vector art tailored for waterjet machines or laser cutters, or generating STEP and STL files for integration with third-party CAM software for machining processes. The tool is particularly useful for mechanism design, utilizing a constraint solver to simulate both planar and spatial linkages, accommodating various joint types such as pin, ball, or slide joints. Instead of relying on traditional trigonometry and spreadsheets, users can work with live-dimensioned drawings to handle plane and solid geometry, and they can sketch sections utilizing a variety of shapes including lines, rectangles, datum lines, points, circles, arcs, and cubic Bezier segments, along with C2 interpolating splines and more intricate designs. This comprehensive approach encourages creativity and efficiency in the design process, making SOLVESPACE a valuable asset for engineers and designers alike.
