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.
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.
Freeform Plus – Closed and Open Curves for Detailing Clay In this week's 2 Minute Tuesday, we examine the use of closed and open curves for detailing clay models in Oqton's Freeform Plus
Freeform Plus – An Alternate Method for Designing a Foot-Ankle Orthotic In this week’s 2 Minute Tuesday, we explore another method for producing a foot-ankle orthotic. This time we will be using a different modeling tool in Oqton’s Freeform Plus than in our last video.
Almost two millennia ago, a man in Roman Britain was executed by crucifixion. His skeleton was discovered in 2017 in Cambridgeshire, England. And now, thanks to the expert work of forensic imaging specialist Joe Mullins and Oqton’s Freeform software, we can see his face. Mullins is a professor at George Mason University in Virginia in the United States. He also works for the forensic imaging unit of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. [...]
When should you perform 3D scanning? As with other tech novelties, the unbridled enthusiasm for scanners makes it difficult to differentiate the hype from the valuable applications. Should you decide to seek out the answer in the vast online wilderness, you’ll discover some interesting passion projects and creative feats of engineering. Scanning body parts and boats seems to be a particularly popular pastime! Fun and games aside, the world of manufacturing faces growing demands: short [...]
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.
Attention all Mastercam users who inspect parts using a CMM . . . You no longer need to tolerate the programming system that came with your Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM). If you have multiple CMM’s, each with their own clumsy programming system, you can now program them all using a single simple-to-use software product that runs from within the user-friendly Mastercam programming environment. While CMM’s are a necessity in most job shops and manufacturing facilities, [...]
