FreeCAD used in production

Overview

Follow-up to the Thread: List of firms/companies/organizations that use FreeCAD in Production or in their workflow (forum thread) this wiki page has been created to tracker all for-profit and non-profit public and private sector usage of FreeCAD in a production environment. The main intention is to debunk the stigma/perception that FreeCAD isn't stable or reliable enough to run in a production environment.
