Parametric Modeling Training in Johannesburg

This instructor-led, live training in Johannesburg (online or onsite) is aimed at designers, mechanical engineers, and anyone who wishes to learn how to create 3D models that can be constructed or 3D printed.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Create printable 3D models.
• Use geometric transformations to build complex 3D shapes.
• Model in a non-interactive manner using minimal lines of code.

FreeCAD is an open-source, customizable, multi-platform, scriptable and extensible parametric 3D modeler for designing real-life objects.

In this instructor-led, live training, participants will learn how to model an object for later construction or 3D printing.

By the end of this training, participants will be able to:

• Use FreeCad's tools and workflows to replace commercial CAD or BIM modeling software
• Write to many formats such as STEP, IGES, STL, SVG, DXF, OBJ, IFC, DAE, etc.
• Use Python to extend FreeCAD's functionality
• Automate FreeCad, build modules and embed FreeCAD into an existing application

Audience

• Designers
• Developers
• Mechanical engineers

Format of the course

• Part lecture, part discussion, exercises and heavy hands-on practice
