If you just want to render your scene quickly, you may omit any adjustment.Ħ.1. Note: changing the scale and units of the scene is only necessary if you wish to work with objects at their true dimensions.
length_unit = 'MILLIMETERS' # or _settings.length_unit = 'METERS' bpy. Assign colors or materials to the individual bodies that make the assembly, approximately matching the color that you want in your render.īpy. Create an assembly using bodies from the Part Workbench or PartDesign Workbench, or any other workbench that produces solid objects, for example, the Arch Workbench. It shows various Python commands that can be used to perform actions quicker both in FreeCAD and Blender.Ī similar description of this process is described in a series of videos, Render Solidworks and FreeCAD Models in Blender, by Joko Engineering.ġ.
It produces a rendering with Blender 2.80 with both the EEVEE and Cycles renderers. Then this part is exported to Blender for rendering. It assumes that the user already created the part in FreeCAD, or has imported it into it. This tutorial shows how to produce a rendered image in Blender, beginning from a part or assembly created with FreeCAD.
