Do you want multi-platform software that supports mainstream operating systems? Have you should check out FreeCAD? It is has some or all the features you might need. You can check it out below.

What is FreeCAD?

FreeCAD is an open source, full-featured and general purpose 3D modeler specifically designed to be used for CAD, MCAD, CAE, PLM and CAx work. It is multi-platform software that supports mainstream operating systems.

FreeCAD is specifically designed for mechanical engineering, product design and related features. It starts as a GUI (Graphical User Interface) application with a 3D viewer, as well as a command-line tool with a very low memory footprint; which is good news for your system.

FreeCAD features a rock-solid OpenCasCade-based geometry kernel, full parametric model, an Open Inventor-compliant 3D scene representation model, a Python API, as well as some key concepts like workbenches, macro recording, and the ability to run as a server.

The application also features modular architecture, which extend its default functionality through plugins or modules. It can export or import files to/from the VRML, SVG, STEP, OBJ, IGES, STL STL, DXF, DAE, NASTRAN, IFC or OFF.
