What's New in Geomagic Studio 11
Geomagic Studio 11 streamlines every aspect of the 3D modeling process, from point and polygon processing to surfacing and creation of full parametric models.
Design Intent Modeling
Accurately reproduce design intent
With its built-in intelligence, Geomagic Studio can quickly extract design intent and create optimized CAD surfaces that require minimum downstream editing. Geomagic Studio automatically identifies analytic surfaces (planes, cylinders, cones and spheres), swept surfaces (extrusions and revolves) and freeform surfaces.
Create parametric models from 3D scan data
Parametric Exchange is the missing link that lets you seamlessly convert Geomagic models to native CAD geometry. By transferring parametric surfaces, solids, datums and curves from Geomagic Studio to CAD without the need for intermediate neutral files such as IGES or STEP , you’ll save valuable product development time.
Constrained surface fitting minimizes
downstream editing
Constrained surface fitting enables you to further refine your models to better capture design intent. You can snap selected surfaces to a specific direction vector, fit multiple disconnected regions to a single surface, and make surfaces coplanar, coaxial and concentric.
Automatically extend and trim surfaces to
perfect your model
Automatic surface extension and trimming extends neighboring surfaces to intersect each other and create sharp edges for faster and easier modification of the model in CAD. Utilize the power and flexibility of your CAD system to create true fillet radii and chamfered edges.
Extract radii of mesh edges for more accurate creation
of fillets in CAD
Mesh Radius Analysis automatically analyzes and measures variable and constant radii along the polygon mesh edges – data that is key for creating accurate fillets. By creating your fillets in CAD, you are leveraging your existing software tools to create a powerful modeling solution.
Unique region detection algorithms create the
most accurate surfaces
Geomagic Studio utilizes unique region detection algorithms to create the most accurate swept and freeform CAD surfaces quickly and easily. Rather than creating a profile based on a single cross-section for swept surfaces, the software creates an optimized profile that best fits the entire surface.
Polygonal Modeling
Interactively reshape polygon models
Interactive polygonal editing tools provide the control and flexibility to sculpt and reshape models early in the 3D modeling process. You can sculpt, carve and deform selected areas of the polygon model using a new set of freestyle editing tools.
Automatically detect and correct mesh errors
Mesh Doctor automatically detects and corrects errors in the polygon mesh to yield high quality surface-ready polygon models. It finds and fixes thousands of problems in seconds, providing a manual walk-through of problem areas if desired.
Produce better surfaces
Curvature-sensitive smoothing provides the option to smooth areas with noisy data while preserving areas with high curvature and small details. The result – high quality surfaces that accurately represent every last detail of your object.
Quickly fill complex holes
The new tangent hole fill option gives you more control and flexibility when filling extremely complex holes. Along with Geomagic Studio’s full range of best-in-class hole filling techniques, you can recreate those areas that are missing due to lack of scan data – saving you the time and expense associated with rescanning the object.
