The Audi Sport Quattro road and rally car has captivated many automotive enthusiasts since its first launch around 40 years ago. Some even call it the “legend of motorsports”. That’s why two companies passionate about motorsports decided to recreate it with the help of 3D scanning and 3D printing. On one hand, LCE Performance led the way with its long-standing experience in automotive tuning and engine technology. On the other, Downforce Racing brought its carbon-brazed [...]
PT. Meiwa Mold Indonesia (hereby referred to as Meiwa Mold) is a company engaged in die-casting mold manufacturing. Its customer base is diverse, including prominent names like American Toyota, Astra Daihatsu (ADM), HPPM (Honda Precision Parts Manufacturing), and Yamaha. Meiwa Mold recognizes the importance of delivering high-quality molds to meet their customers’ strict requirements. To ensure accurate machining of castings, machining allowances must be tightly controlled. An excessive allowance will raise the machine’s weight and [...]
Artisans are increasing speed, reducing costs, and expanding flexibility by using 3D printers to create prototypes as opposed to traditional hand-made models. Chinese porcelain has always been loved by people all over the world for its unique beauty, among which the Southern Song Dynasty official kilns are very popular because of their elegance. Xiao Heqing, a ceramics manufacturing expert, inherited traditional ceramic skills and introduced 3D printing in the process of making porcelain from the [...]
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 A-A where we [...]
In this week’s 2 Minute Tuesday, we will discuss Initial Alignments, Datum Alignments, and the use of Construction Geometry to create datum planes in space in Oqton’s Geomagic Control X.
In this week's 2 Minute Tuesday, we are going to demonstrate the creation of multiple section planes in a single "2D Section" command in Oqton's Geomagic Control X.
The Freescan Combo 3D Scanner is a multifunctional, hybrid light source, metrology-grade scanner. The tiny footprint makes scanning of tight quarters much more accessible than with traditional handheld scanners. By having four (4) working modes, the Combo is perhaps the most versatile, handheld scanner, on the market. In Laser mode, it offers multiple laser scanning options; multi-laser scanning (26 crossing lasers), single laser line scanning (for deep holes) fine line scanning (for very high resolution) and [...]
