PartDesign Workbench/es

El Entorno de Diseño de Piezas pretende proporcionar herramientas para modelar piezas sólidas complejas y está basado en una metodología de edición de operaciones. Está intrínsecamente vinculado con el el banco de trabajo Croquizador.

What is a single contiguous solid? This is an item like a casting or something machined from a single block of metal. If the item involves nails, screws, glue or welding, it is not a single contiguous solid. As a practical example, PartDesign would not be used to model a wooden chair, but would be used to model the subcomponents (legs, slats, seat, etc). The subcomponents are combined using the Assembly, Part or Draft workbench.

The sketch is the building block for creating and editing solid parts. The workflow can be summarized by this: a sketch containing 2D geometry is created first, then a solid creation tool is used on the sketch. At the moment the available tools are: More tools are planned in future releases.

 * [[Image:PartDesign_Pocket.png|32px]] Pocket which creates a pocket on an existing solid
 * [[Image:PartDesign_Revolution.png|32px]] Revolution which creates a solid by revolving a sketch along an axis
 * [[Image:PartDesign_Groove.png|32px]] Groove which creates a groove in an existing solid

A very important concept in the PartDesign Workbench is the sketch support. Sketches can be created on standard planes (XY, XZ, YZ and planes parallel to them) or on a planar face of an existing solid. For this last case, the existing solid becomes the support of the sketch. Several tools will only work with sketches that have a support, for example, Pocket - without a support there would be nothing to remove material from!

Después de que una geometría sólida ha sido creada se puede modificar con chaflanes y redondeos o transformada, por ejemplo con simetría o matrices.

The PartDesign Workbench is meant to create a single, connected solid. Multiple solids will be possible with the Assembly workbench.

As we create a model in the Part Design Workbench, each feature takes the shape of the last one and adds or removes something, creating linear dependencies from feature to feature as the model is created. Hence a "Cut" feature is not only the cut hole itself, but the whole part with the cut. As a new feature is added to the model, FreeCAD turns off visibility of the old features. The user usually should only have the newest item (feature) in the model tree visible, because otherwise the other phases of the model overlay each other, and holes are filled in by the earlier model features that didn't yet have those holes.

To toggle visibility of an object on or off, select it in the hierarchy tree and press the Spacebar. Usually everything but the last item in the hierarchy tree should be greyed out and therefore not visible in the 3D view.

Las herramientas
Las herramientas de Diseño de Piezas están ubicadas en el menú Diseño de Piezas que aparece cuando se carga el módulo de Diseño de Piezas.

Estas incluyen las herramientas del Entorno del Croquizador, de modo que el módulo de Diseño de Piezas es así dependiente de este.
