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 [...]
This blog post will delve into the Measure Menu of Geomagic’s Control X software. While most users of Control X are interested in producing color maps, whisker plots, dimension checks, and GD&T analyses of the scan as compared to the nominal CAD model, it is important to note that there are several “mesh-only” functions for measuring a scan model that do not require a nominal CAD model. Geomagic Control X Measure Menu Options The Measure [...]
In this week's 2 Minute Tuesday, we will examine how to resize section planes so that just the necessary geometry is displayed in Geomagic Control X. This becomes extremely useful for very complex models where you want to draw the reviewer’s attention to a specific location on the model.
In this week's 2 Minute Tuesday, we delve into the Measure Menu of Geomagic’s Control X software, examining the features it offers. While most users of Control X are interested in producing color maps, whisker plots, dimension checks, and GD&T analyses of the scan as compared to the nominal CAD model, it is important to note that there are several “mesh-only” functions for measuring a scan model that do not require a nominal CAD model.

In this week's 2 Minute Tuesday, we take a look at how to manage a Geomagic Control X project when the user has 10, 100, or even 1000 scans to inspect against the same nominal CAD model.
