We continue to find so many applications for 3D scanning – From generating CAD from outdated legacy parts, to the development of cutting-edge cancer diagnostic tools - there is no doubt that this technology is revolutionising the way many people are working. But what isn’t as well known are the steps required to take your scan data into something that is usable. We have found the reverse engineering software Quick Surface to be one of the best out there on the market - QUICKSURFACE is a complete reverse-engineering solution for converting 3D scan polygonal meshes of digitized parts into accurate digital parametric CAD/CAM designs, or to put simply ‘the bridge between 3D scanning and Manufacturing’
How it works
- Once you have scanned your object and exported it as STL, OBJ or PLY mesh or PTX point cloud you can import your mesh in QUICKSURFACE. As the software is fully optimised, there is no limitation of the size of the mesh you import.
- Use QUICKSURFACE's simple and powerful tools to create 2D sketches, extruded 3D sketches and revolved surfaces, free form curves, surfaces, and prismatic features.
- QUICKSURFACE offers standard CAD operations like trim, revolve, booleans, loft, sweep, extend, mirrors and patterns. Finish your work by adding fillets and chamfers.
- Keep control over your work with accurate deviation control at any time. QUICKSURFACE can create complex hybrid 3D models.
- Remodel your object with the best accuracy and design intent.
- Once you are ready, export as industry standard STEP or IGES file format to other CAD/ CAM packages or use your results for 3D Printing or CNC machining. QUICKSURFACE offers a full parametric tree into SOLIDWORKS.
