Complete course of FreeCAD assembly

Learn to build FreeCAD assemblies, from positioning and constraining parts to subassemblies, fasteners, and motion testing, if you already model parts in FreeCAD.

<h2>About this course</h2>In this course, you learn the practical workflow for creating and managing assemblies in FreeCAD, from preparing individual parts to organizing multi-part mechanical models, across two sections that each end with a quiz. You begin with how the assembly workflow is structured and how to prepare parts before bringing them in. You then insert and position components, fix the first component to anchor the assembly in place, and move parts to test motion. This first section closes with assembly constraints and joints, so you understand how they control the way parts relate and move.The second section moves into assembly techniques that build directly on these fundamentals. You mate parts using practical constraint examples, create subassemblies to break larger designs into manageable groups, and manage fasteners and other repeated components efficiently. You also learn to detect misalignment and constraint issues, and to update assemblies when the parts inside them change, so your assemblies stay reliable as designs evolve. The course finishes with best practices for keeping a clean assembly structure, bringing together everything you have learned so you can build organized, editable assemblies with confidence.<h2>Who should take this course</h2>This course is for you if you already understand basic part modelling in FreeCAD and want to learn how to combine parts into assemblies. It suits mechanical design learners, CAD students, hobbyists, makers, and engineers moving into assembly workflows. It is especially useful if you build multi-part models and need to position components, apply constraints and joints, test motion, organize subassemblies, handle fasteners, and keep your assemblies clean and easy to manage.<h2>Prerequisites</h2>You should know basic FreeCAD navigation and part modelling, and be comfortable creating simple 3D parts, saving files, and opening part files for use in an assembly. Prior assembly experience is not required. You need a working installation of FreeCAD.
