How it works

FreeMILL

FreeMILL is a free and easy way to get started with 3D CNC milling. It lets you create toolpaths where a cutting tool moves over your 3D design in parallel layers to shape your part. You can create both rough and finish cuts, run a full simulation to see how the material will be removed, and then export the G-code to your CNC machine. FreeMILL works with both RhinoCAM and VisualCAD/CAM. That means you can either use it as a plugin inside Rhinoceros, or run it on its own using VisualCAD, which is also free. It’s a great option if you’re just getting into CNC machining or want to try out CAM software before buying a full version.

instant3Dhub

instant3Dhub is an enterprise-grade 3D visualization and streaming platform that gives industrial teams real-time, browser-based access to complex CAD data without file conversion or data preparation. It connects non-invasively to existing PLM, PDM, ERP, and CAD systems through APIs and standard interfaces, streaming only the data a user actually needs instead of downloading and converting whole files. Large, complex 3D models load instantly on any device, with no local GPU, plugin, or heavy desktop client required. Traditional 3D workflows force organizations to maintain conversion pipelines, lightweight file formats, and separate viewer installations for every team that needs to see a model. Each of those steps adds latency, storage cost, and a new copy of the data to keep in sync. instant3Dhub removes that layer entirely. Data stays in its source system and remains the single source of truth, while the platform handles visibility determination, geometry processing, and rendering on demand. The platform adapts rendering to the client. Depending on the device, network, and model size, work is distributed between server and browser so that an engineer on a workstation and a technician on a tablet both get an interactive experience from the same source data. This makes it practical to open assemblies with hundreds of thousands of parts in a browser tab, share a link with a supplier, and have both parties looking at the same live model. Built for manufacturing, automotive, and aerospace, instant3Dhub supports use cases from engineering collaboration and design review to spare parts identification, service documentation, quality inspection, sales configuration, and digital twin applications. Because visualization is delivered as a service, teams can embed 3D directly into the web applications and portals they already use rather than asking users to switch tools. The webvis client API lets developers integrate interactive 3D into internal apps with a small amount of JavaScript, which shortens the path from prototype to production. Deployment is flexible. instant3Dhub runs on-premises, in a private cloud, or in a hybrid setup, so organizations working with export-controlled or IP-sensitive geometry keep full control over where their data lives. Enterprise-grade security includes SSO and role-based access control, so visibility rules follow the permissions already defined in the source systems.
