features and specifications

FEATURES

Scan data processing
  • Process large data sets
  • Collect point data from all major 3D scanners and digitizers
  • Optimize scan data (using remove outliers, reduce noise and other available tools
  • Align and merge multiple scan data sets
  • Automatically or manually register multiple point clouds
Point and polygon editing
  • Reduce dense data sets with random, uniform and curvature-based point sampling
  • Create polygon mesh from point cloud data
  • Modify, edit and clean polygon model
  • Automatically detect and correct errors in the polygon mesh with just one click
  • Detect and create features in the model
  • Repair and sharpen boundary edges
  • Export model in several file formats including PDF with fully embedded 3D models, STL, OBJ, VRML1, VRML2, DXF, PLY and 3DS
Parametric modeling
  • Automatically or manually classify surface types (planes, cylinders and others) of a model
  • Automatically extend and trim surfaces to create perfectly sharp edges between neighboring surfaces
  • Control surface fitting using available tools and parameters
  • Seamlessly transfer parametric surfaces, solids, datums and curves to CAD to automatically construct native geometry
  • Directly integrates with major mechanical CAD packages
  • Automatically trim surfaces and solids for a faster creation of parametric models
  • Create a single, stitched surface that is a blend of planar, cylindrical, conical, extruded, revolved, and free-form surfaces
  • Extract optimized profile curves
  • Analyze surface fitting results using inspection, walk-through or visualization tools
Exact surface modeling
  • Automatically create watertight NURBS surfaces from polygon models with just one click
  • Easily create new patch layouts manually by drawing curves
  • Automatically define UV parameterization
  • Adaptively fit surfaces (C0 and C1) based on tolerance
  • Obtain guaranteed C1 continuity between surface patches
  • Create templates for rapid surfacing of similar objects
  • Ability to output sharp edges and planar surfaces
  • Detect and repair patch errors with step-through dialogs
  • Export model in several formats including IGES, STEP, VDA, NEU, SAT
