What's New with Shining 3D Scanners Einscan HX and HX2 (Reverse Engineering) The HX is an excellent scanner for reverse engineering. For the scanning and reverse engineering of many part sizes and shapes, the Einscan HX (and soon, the HX2) are an excellent choice. Stay-tuned for HX2 info. when it becomes available. The HX and HX2 are hybrid scanners. While holding 40 micron total tolerance in laser mode, this scanner model can also scan [...]
Utilizing Color Maps for understanding machining outcomes Consider this airfoil. It was programmed and machined on a 5-Axis mill, using a single setup. The ball mill was able to travel completely around the shape, during the machining process and therefore blending the top and bottom of the surface didn’t need to be considered. Our job is to inspect the airfoil and make suggestions to the CNC Programmer and Tool Designer to optimize the machining process. [...]
Freeform Plus – Exporting a Clay Model for 3D Printing In this week's 2 minute Tuesday, we revisit a very popular webinar presented several months ago titled, “Redefining Patient-Specific 3D Design,” to discuss how a clay model can be exported for 3D printing applications from Oqton's Freeform Plus.
An Overview of the Formlabs Fuse- CimCast In our fifth episode of CimCast, we discuss the Fuse 3D printers from one of Cimquest's vendors, Formlabs. Learn more: https://cimquest-inc.com/formlabs-fuse-1-new/
Freeform Plus – StructureFX In this week's 2 Minute Tuesday, we delve into the StructureFX tool in Oqton’s Freeform Plus. The StructureFX tool enables the user to algorithmically generate complex clay structures that would otherwise be extremely difficult or virtually impossible to create using other clay modeling methods.
The Intuitive and High-Speed Form 4 by Formlabs Watch this recorded webinar where we delve into the world of cutting-edge 3D printing with the Formlabs Form 4. The Form 4 provides everything you’d expect from a Formlabs 3D printer, except now it does it 4x faster.
Freeform Plus – Creating a Foot-Ankle Orthotic from a Human Scan In this week's 2 Minute Tuesday, we explore how to design a foot-ankle orthotic using the scan of a human leg and Oqton's Geomagic Freeform Plus.
Breaking the Mold – Xact Metal for Tooling Join Cimquest and partner, Xact Metal, as we elaborate on the benefits of Xact Metal's 3D printers and how they provide for a greatly innovative tooling workflow. We will educate attendees on tooling, its various applications, Xact Metal's capabilities in surface finish, tolerance, and materials, return on investment (ROI), and thinking differently.
