Part Workbench
Introduction
FreeCAD's CAD kapabilitet är baserad på OpenCasCade kärnan. Del modulen tillåter FreeCAD att komma åt och använda OpenCasCade objekt och funktioner. OpenCascade är en professionell CAD kärna, som erbjuder avancerad 3D geometrimanipulation och objekt. Del objekten, till skillnad från Nätmodul objekten, är mycket komplexare, och tillåter därför mycket mer avancerade operationer, som koherenta booleska operationer, ändringshistorik och parametriskt beteende.
The Part Workbench can also create objects that are not solids, such as faces, shells, and objects with only edges or vertices. It also provides a variety of general purpose tools for geometry manipulation, geometry validation, and making copies.
The PartDesign Workbench uses an alternative workflow for creating solids. For a detailed discussion of the Part Workbench versus the Part Design Workbench see Part and Part Design.

Sweep: Sopa en eller flera profiler längs en bana
Section: Creates a section by intersecting an object with a section plane.
Cross sections...: Creates one or more cross-sections through an object.
3D Offset: Constructs a parallel shape at a certain distance from an original.
2D Offset: Constructs a parallel wire at certain distance from an original, or enlarges/shrinks a planar face.
Thickness: Hollows out a solid.
Projection on surface: Projects a logo, text or any face, wire or edge onto a surface.
Color per face: Assigns colors to individual faces of objects.
Boolean toolbar
Make compound: Creates a compound from the selected objects.
Explode compound: Splits up compounds.
Compound Filter: Extracts the individual pieces from compounds.
Boolean: Utför booleska operationer på objekt.
Cut: Cuts one object from another.
Union: Fuses two or more objects.
Intersection: Extracts the common part of two objects.
Connect objects: Connects interiors of walled objects.
Embed object: Embeds a walled object into another walled object.
Cutout for object: Creates a cutout in a wall of an object for another walled object.
Boolean fragments: Creates all pieces obtained from Boolean operations.
Slice apart: Slices and splits an object by intersecting it with other objects.
Slice to compound: Slices an object by intersecting it with other objects.
Boolean XOR: Removes space shared by an even number of objects.
Check geometry: Checks the geometry of selected objects for errors.
Other tools
Import CAD file...: Imports from *.IGES, *.STEP, or *.BREP files.
Export CAD file...: Exports to *.IGES, *.STEP, or *.BREP files.
Box selection: Selects faces from a rectangular area.
Create shape from mesh: Creates shapes from mesh objects.

- Create a copy:
Create simple copy: Creates non-parametric copies of objects.
Create transformed copy: Creates non-parametric copies of objects. It is intended for objects nested in containers.
Create shape element copy: Creates non-parametric copies of subelements: vertices, edges and faces.
Refine shape: Creates parametric copies with a refined shape from selected objects. It removes unnecessary edges from planar and cylindrical faces.
Attachment...: Attaches an object to one or more other objects.
