The introduction of the ShrinkWrap feature in Rhino 8 brings a new level of proficiency to 3D digital design and modeling. ShrinkWrap is an innovative tool that creates a watertight mesh around open or closed meshes, NURBS geometry, SubD, and point clouds. This advanced tool offers a plethora of real-world applications for designers, engineers, and modelers across various industries.
ShrinkWrap's versatility makes it ideal for a wide range of applications, including:
The ShrinkWrap tool can handle complex tasks with ease, such as inflating point clouds, removing self-intersections, converting scan data to clean QuadMesh, and generating interior shells.
To get started with ShrinkWrap in Rhino 8, download the Rhino 8 Evaluation for Windows or Mac. Once installed, open the ShrinkWrap-Demo.3dm model—a 3D scan of a shoe last used in shoemaking. Despite the major gaps and uneven mesh geometry, the ShrinkWrap command can fix this.
