Turn a design into a real, orderable part: set the dimensions and hole pattern, then export the exact DXF (laser/CNC), STL (3D print), and a bill of materials with fasteners.
Reading this result: 120×80 plate in Aluminum 6061 (4 mm, 4× Ø5 mm, M5 clearance). Download the DXF for an exact laser / CNC / waterjet cut, the STL to 3D-print (7,644 triangles), or the BOM. Est. mass ~103 g, ~$2.32. Prototyping aid — verify fit and load with real testing.

How it works
Fabricate closes the last gap between simulation and a physical object. Design a parametric plate or mounting bracket — width, height, thickness, hole diameter, and layout — and export production-ready files: a DXF with exact geometry and circular holes for laser cutting, CNC, or waterjet; a watertight STL to 3D-print; and a bill of materials listing the stock (with estimated mass and cost by material) plus correctly-sized bolts, nuts, and washers with supplier search links. It's a prototyping aid — always verify fit and load with real testing before relying on a part.

Is this design to DXF STL bill of materials tool really free?▾
Yes. Fabricate runs entirely in your browser using your device's own compute, so local use is free forever. You only pay Compute Tokens if you scale a job to the cloud.
Do I need to install anything?▾
No. Everything runs client-side in a modern browser — no downloads, no license, no account required to start.
Can I save or share my simulation?▾
Create a free account to save projects, and use a shareable embed or minted DOI to publish a live, interactive version anywhere.
How accurate are the results?▾
The solver uses established numerical methods, but results are for research and educational purposes and should be validated against experiment or professional review before you rely on them.
