FreeMILL Description

FreeMILL is a subset of our CNC software. It's a free milling module that can be used to program CNC routers and mills. Absolutely free CAM software without time limits, number limit of tries, number limit of saves or number limit of lines of code! To cut your geometry, create a toolpath that allows the tool to be driven along a series of parallel planes. Both Roughing and finishing toolpaths can be created. Run full material simulation and cutting of toolpaths. G code is output to your CNC milling machine of choice. MecSoft Corporation develops standalone and integrated CAD/CAM software solutions that can be used in subtractive (CNC) machining, and additive (3D printing). MecSoft was founded in 1997 and is a technology leader. We are based in Irvine, CA, and develop, market, and support our CAM software products. MecSoft is committed to developing affordable, powerful and easy-to-use CAD/CAM software solutions.

    Surprisingly complete

    Edited: Oct 26 2023

    Summary: Nice. Using each module separated seems to me really good and logical but some Freecad "similarity" MAKES IT A LITTLE CONFUSING.

    Positive: 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.

    Negative: 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.

    So reduced it is pointless

    Edited: Feb 09 2023

    Summary: I don't think this is the sales tool you think it is, as I am now just left annoyed that I had to go through the whole process to trial VisualCAD just to find out how useless FreeMILL is. The program only spent a total of 5 minutes on my system.

    Positive: It's free. It will generate a surfacing tool path to make a flat board flat, but a little thinner than before.

    Negative: 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.
