What is FreeMILL?

FreeMILL is a no-cost milling module that functions within our commercial CNC software, tailored specifically for programming CNC mills and routers. This completely free CAM software places no limits on duration, attempts, file saving, or lines of code! Users are empowered to generate toolpaths that guide the cutting tool along a series of parallel planes to achieve their desired shapes. Moreover, it facilitates the creation of both Roughing and Finishing toolpaths and offers comprehensive simulation capabilities for cutting and material processes. One of its notable features is the ability to output G-code compatible with your chosen CNC milling machine. Established in 1997, MecSoft Corporation stands at the forefront of developing both standalone and integrated CAD/CAM software solutions that serve the needs of the subtractive (CNC machining) and additive (3D printing) manufacturing industries. With its headquarters located in Irvine, CA, MecSoft is dedicated to delivering user-friendly, robust, and economical CAD/CAM software that addresses the various demands of its clientele. Their unwavering commitment to innovation guarantees that customers have access to excellent support and continually updated technology, ensuring a seamless experience. This dedication sets them apart in the competitive landscape of CAD/CAM software development.

    So reduced it is pointless

    Updated: 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.

    Surprisingly complete

    Updated: 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 donĀ“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.
