Deploying Design X Essentials for Reverse Engineering and CNC programming
Geomagic Design X Essentials can take a scan or point cloud from a scanner and use it as a template for reverse engineering the shape into a completely machinable Neutral or Kernel file (Step, ACIS or Parasolid).
2D Pockets that require 2-axis machining that include G02/G03 circular tool motion, G81/G83 point-to-point applications, etc. are all fully achievable, using Design X Essentials to create the model.

Creating Multiple Section Planes in a Single Command using Control X
In this blog post, we are going to demonstrate the creation of multiple section planes in a single 2D Section command using Control X. In a recent blog post, we created two planes where one passed through the center points of two holes and the second was a linear distance offset, away from the first. Now, we are going to explain how to create a new plane that is parallel to Section […]
