## 👁️ About
|
||
BlenderCAM is an add-on for the free open-source [Blender 3D package](https://www.blender.org/).
|
||
|
||
It offers an open source solution for [CAM _(Computer Aided Machining)_](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer-aided_manufacturing) toolpath creation, simulation and [G-code](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G-code) generation and export.
|
||
|
||
It has been used for many milling projects _(artistic, personal, commercial and industrial)_ since its creation in 2012, and is actively developed.
