Why Mesh2Surface for SOLIDWORKS?
|
|
|
|
Scan Data Import Load data from any scanner using the industry standard STL, OBJ or PLY mesh files. For the purposes of manipulation the build-in polygon reduction function allows the user to create a mesh with suitable number of triangles without compromising the quality of the mesh. |
Interactive selection Simple to use tools to quickly extract areas of interest. Magic wand, brush and free form selection allows the user to identify the areas that represent features or free form surfaces. |
Deviation Analyser Control the accuracy of your reconstruction with the efficient distance colour map. Compare the CAD model against the reference mesh at any time of your process. The deviation analyser works with any SOLIDWORKS body (surface or solid) and compares the reference scan data with almost instant speed. |
|
|
Primitives extraction Reconstruct quickly planes, cylinders, cones and spheres. Create the extracted primitives in SOLIDWORKS as reference geometries, surface or solid bodies. |
Symmetry plane Automatic detection of symmetry plane with colour map analyser. Additional manual adjustment controls for best results. |
|
|
|
Align scan data in space Position the object into the world coordinate system using the extracted primitives. The interactive definition of the coordinate system allows the user to adjust the correct orientation of the object. |
Align to CAD Quick and accurate align scan data to already existing CAD models. |
Align multiple scans Combine multiple scans of the same part to create a single representation of the object |
|
|
|
Cross sections Interactive sectioning allows the user to extract rerefence points for 2D Sketching. Align the section plane to extracted primitives, standard SOLIDWORK reference geometries or CAD faces of existing surface or solid bodies. |
Fit 2D Sketch entities Extract lines, arcs and circles from the section planes as best fit primitives. Quickly connect or fillet with simple brushing operations. |
Complex 2D shapes recognition Extract rectangles, slots and even hexagons with just a single brush |
|
|
3D Sketch on scan data Draw style lines and points directly on scan data. Adjust precisely the location with the interactive tools and use the true real-time deviation analyzer for best precission. |
Fit Surface Select area of interest and let the software to approximate the selection with a free form surface. The resulting surface is extended so it is suitable for trimming. The real-time deviation colour map instantly shows the quality of the surface. Automatic option allows the user to create surface as close as possible to the reference mesh. |
|
|
Free Form Modelling Simple and efficient, the free form surfacing allows the user to reconstruct free form surface which is not possible with the standard surfacing methods. Proprietary snap-to-mesh technology allows even non-professionals to create shapes in no time - something not available in any other solutions. |
Automatic surfacing Create surfaces compatible in SOLIDWORKS with just hit of a button. Mesh2Surface automatic surfacing is one of the best on the market today. |
