In this video I cover a variety of great free engineering programs that I think are the top of their respective software categories. I review software for CAM, G-Code simulation, CAD/CAM, 2D CAD, 3D CAD, Discrete event simulation, process simulation, process mapping, flow charting. Most of these programs are provided for free under open source or GNU General Public use licences. These are great alternatives to commercial programs gibbsCAM, SolidWorks, AutoCAD, Microsoft Visio, FlexSim, and Matlab.
