PrePoMax

I presented FreeCAD at Bosch in Stuttgart - on 1.1 release day, teaching inventors becoming manufacturers using a fully open-source workflow with concrete examples, consisting of @FreeCADNews , @prepomax , OpenRadioss and @LibreOffice.

from yesterday's stream - design and analysis of a custom bearing retainer (circlip) made of a single sheet metal part this applies a fixed preload without the need of additional springs or tooling (circlip pliers)

@emm0sh Its amazing to see PrePoMax in action here. Thank you for sharing your work!

@AleksanderSado1 @FreeCADNews @prepomax @LibreOffice Never heard of prepomax. Is it actually good, or is it just something that you're shilling by association?

@AutismEgregore @AleksanderSado1 @FreeCADNews @LibreOffice Definitely shilling

FreeCAD at renowned engineering conference alongside Dassault Systemens, PTC (Creo) and Siemens. Glad to inspire industry veterans to embrace open-source tools like @FreeCADNews, @prepomax, OpenRadioss, and @LibreOffice.

tutorials/incompressible/simpleFoam/windAroundBuildingsをもとにFreeCADのCfdOFなしでもやってみた。FreeCADに依存しているわけでもないので、OpenFOAMとPrePoMaxがあれば大丈夫そう。（計算のための形状操作でFreeCADは使う可能性はある）

prepomaxのメッシュ作成方法 パイプ見たいな薄板　長尺のメッシュ作成で 自動的に生成される非整形メッシュは使いたくたい タイムリーにAsuLike 3D-shortで動画投稿されていたので、やってみた #FreeCAD #Calculix #PrePoMax

Surprised myself by how far I got with this using @prepomax

I will be presenting about open-source-software in the product development process, including @FreeCADNews , @LibreOfficeDE, @prepomax and more. This time at the leading engineering conference "Konstruktionsleiter-Forum 2025" on October 15th in Würzburg, Germany.

@LibreOfficeDE Webinar at German association of engineers on open-source-software in Germany, showcasing @FreeCADNews, @prepomax, @LibreOffice

I presented FreeCAD to executives from Dassault Systèmes! With our FreeCAD-based startup, I showed at an international conference in automotive, how open-source can be used for doing crash simulations using FreeCAD, PrePoMax, OpenRadioss and ParaView. @FreeCADNews @prepomax

version v2.3.0 に対応したドキュメント もリリースされました。 prepomax.fs.um.si/documentation/ #PrePoMax

@t_kun_kamakiri You have more control in PrePoMax than in FreeCAD for setting up the case study.

Paraviewからボイド付近の電界強度のデータを取り出し、グラフ化しました ４つのラインをすこしずつずらして、相対比較しました PrePoMaxは、メッシュの変換回数が多いのと、ccx2paraviewにより変換しているので、微妙なゴミが出やすいと思われます なお、電界は-grad(V）です 電気系は精度がシビア

Yesterday, we designed and simulated a mars rover using a fully open-source workflow, consisting of #FreeCAD, #PrePoMax, #OpenRadioss and #ParaView. Surprisingly, all workshop participants were able to finish their own simulation by the end of the day.
