How To Choose Your First 3D Scanner – Part 3

By |2020-09-09T08:15:36-04:00September 9th, 2020|Categories: 3D Scanning, 3d Scanning & Reverse Engineering|0 Comments

Welcome to Part 3 of our Metrology Minute series. In parts one and two of this three-part series, we explained several key components in choosing your company’s first scanner; Field of View (FOV), Accuracy, and Resolution are the first considerations. For a quick review . . . Field-Of-View (FOV) is the volume envelope that your scanner can ‘see’. Ideally, the FOV is large enough to scan your largest parts yet still maintain the accuracy and resolution [...]

Geomagic Design X Reverse Engineering Features

By |2020-08-26T08:08:12-04:00August 26th, 2020|Categories: 3d Scanning & Reverse Engineering|0 Comments

This blog post will compare two modeling tools in Geomagic Design X, the Sweep and Pipe Wizards. Modeling wizards are intelligent tools used to extract 2 or 3-dimensional sketches, profiles, and features, from 3D scan data. They help users perform tasks in an automated fashion, tasks that would otherwise be very complicated to perform manually. Let’s take a look at the Sweep wizard. This tool quickly extracts sweep objects from a mesh. It intelligently computes [...]

Using a Portable Arm for Part Inspection This blog post will introduce you to using a portable, 6-axis arm and powerful metrology software for part inspection. The software that we will be referring to is Verisurf and the 6-axis arm metrology software for part inspection is Master 3D Gage. Read on to learn how these tools are used. The Master 3D Gage is a 4-foot arm capable of measuring from very small to fairly sizeable [...]

Deviation Analysis in Design X

By |2020-07-24T08:40:30-04:00July 24th, 2020|Categories: 3D Scanning, 3d Scanning & Reverse Engineering, Inspection|0 Comments

Let’s take a look at the basics behind Deviation Analysis in Design X. This is an essential tool for reverse engineering and will ensure that you get the most out of your 3D scans. In Geomagic Design X, Deviation Analysis tells us how far off our derived CAD model is from our scan. There are typically three sources of error when scanning a part: There could be a slight error in the actual manufacturing of [...]

https://cimquesttv.wistia.com/medias/stu5biddc3?embedType=async&videoFoam=true&videoWidth=640 Using a Portable Arm for Part Inspection Today we use the Master 3D Gage to inspect a part in Verisurf. Verisurf software runs ‘inside’ Mastercam. This enables both CNC part programmers and part inspectors to use the exact same Interface to program and inspect parts.
