Manual:All workbenches at a glance/de

Eine der größten Schwierigkeiten für neue Benutzer von FreeCAD, ist zu wissen, in welchem Arbeitsbereich ein bestimmtes Werkzeug zu finden ist. Die folgende Tabelle gibt einen Überblick über die wichtigsten Arbeitsbereiche und deren Werkzeuge. Eine vollständigere Liste findest du auf jeder Seite Arbeitsbereich in der FreeCAD Dokumentation.

Vier Arbeitsbereiche sind ebenfalls für die Arbeit in Paaren ausgelegt, wobei einer von ihnen vollständig in den anderen integriert ist: Arch enthält alle Entwurfswerkzeuge und PartDesign alle Skizzierer-Werkzeuge. Aus Gründen der Übersichtlichkeit sind sie jedoch unten getrennt.

Part
Der Part Arbeitsbereich bietet grundlegende Werkzeuge für die Arbeit mit Volumenkörpern: Primitive, wie Würfel und Kugeln, und einfache geometrische Operationen und boolesche Operationen. Als Hauptankerpunkt bei OpenCasCade bietet der Part Arbeitsbereich die Grundlage des Geometriesystems von FreeCAD, und fast alle anderen Arbeitsbereiche erzeugen eine Teil-basierte Geometrie.

Entwurf
The Draft Workbench provides tools to do basic 2D CAD drafting tasks: lines, circles, etc... and a series of generic handy tools such as move, rotate or scale. It also provides several drawing aids, such as grid and snapping. It is principally meant to draw the guidelines for Arch objects, but also serves as FreeCAD's "swiss knife".

Skizzierer
Der Skizzierer Arbeitsbereich enthält Werkzeuge zum Erstellen und Bearbeiten komplexer 2D Objekte, genannt Skizzen. Die Geometrie innerhalb dieser Skizzen kann durch die Verwendung von Beschränkungen präzise positioniert und in Beziehung gesetzt werden. Sie sind in erster Linie als Bausteine der PartDesign Geometrie gedacht, sind aber überall in FreeCAD nützlich.

Part Design
The Part Design Workbench contains advanced tools to build solid parts. It also contains all the tools from the sketcher. Since it can only produce solid shapes (the rule number one of Part Design), it is the main workbench to use when designing pieces (parts) to be manufactured or 3D-printed, as you will always obtain a printable object.

Arch
The Arch Workbench contains tools to work with BIM projects (civil engineering and architecture). It also contains all the tools from the Draft workbench. The main use of the Arch Workbench is to create BIM objects or give BIM attributes to objects built with other workbenches, in order to export them to IFC.

Drawing
The Drawing Workbench handles the creation and manipulation of 2D drawing sheets, used for displaying views of your 3D work in 2D. These sheets can then be exported to 2D applications in SVG or DXF formats, to a PDF file or printed.

Other built-in workbenches
Although the above summarizes the most important tools of FreeCAD, many more workbenches are available, among them:


 * The Mesh Workbench allows to work with polygon meshes. Although meshes are not the preferred type of geometry to work with in FreeCAD, because of their lack of precision and support for curves, meshes still have a lot of uses, and are fully supported in FreeCAD. The Mesh Workbench also offers a number of Part-to-Mesh and Mesh-to-Part tools.
 * The Raytracing Workbench offers tools to interface with external renderers such as povray or luxrender. Right from inside FreeCAD, this workbench allows you to produce high-quality renderings from your models.
 * The Spreadsheet Workbench permits the creation and manipulation of spreadsheet data, that can be extracted from FreeCAD models. Spreadsheet cells can also be referenced in many areas of FreeCAD, allowing to use them as master data structures.
 * The FEM Workbench deals with Finite Elements Analysis, and permits the performing of pre- and post-processing FEM calculations and to display the results graphically.

Externe Arbeitsbereiche
A number of other very useful workbenches produced by FreeCAD community members also exist. Although they are not included in a standard FreeCAD installation,they are easy to install as plug-ins. They are all referenced in the FreeCAD-addons repository. Among the most developed are:


 * The Drawing Dimensioning Workbench offers many new tools to work directly on Drawing Sheets and allow you to add dimensions, annotations and other technical symbols with great control over their aspect. The Drawing Dimensioning Workbench is no longer maintained.
 * The Fasteners Workbench offers a wide range of ready-to-insert fasteners objects like screws, bolts, rods, washers and nuts. Many options and settings are available.
 * The A2plus workbench offers a series of tools to mount and work with assemblies.
