Description

PolyWorks|Modeler™ is an all-encompassing software solution designed for reverse engineering, enabling the extraction of high-quality CAD entities, curves, surfaces, parametric sketches, and prismatic features from polygonal representations of scanned parts, which can then be utilized as a foundation for your advanced CAD modeling needs. The initial phase of the reverse-engineering process involves converting digitized point clouds into surface-based polygonal models, commonly referred to as meshes. These polygonal models are not only more compact and accurate but also less prone to noise compared to raw point clouds, making them suitable for industrial applications like milling, 3D printing, and aerodynamic simulations. It's crucial to implement effective scanning techniques that guarantee both quality and precision, utilizing real-time quality meshing technology. Users can enhance their models by filling in gaps, smoothing, and reconstructing surfaces, cleaning up boundaries, and recovering sharp edges to ensure surfaces are watertight. Additionally, users can extrude boundaries, offset surfaces, recreate fillets, and perform Boolean operations with CAD models, thus expanding the potential of their designs and applications. With these features, PolyWorks|Modeler™ significantly streamlines the reverse-engineering process, making it an invaluable tool for professionals in various industries.

Description

Rhino offers a comprehensive suite for creating, modifying, analyzing, documenting, rendering, animating, and converting NURBS curves, surfaces, solids, subdivision geometry (SubD), point clouds, and polygon meshes. The only limitations on complexity, degree, or size are dictated by your hardware capabilities. Its free-form 3D modeling tools rival those found in expensive software, enabling you to craft any shape you envision. With precision required for designing, prototyping, engineering, analyzing, and manufacturing a wide range of items—from aircraft to jewelry—Rhino ensures compatibility with all your design, drafting, CAM, engineering, analysis, rendering, animation, and illustration applications. It can read and repair intricate meshes and complex IGES files. The software is user-friendly, allowing you to concentrate on design and visualization without the software becoming a distraction. Remarkably efficient, it operates smoothly even on standard laptops without the need for specialized hardware. Furthermore, it serves as a foundational platform for numerous specialized 3D applications, broadening its utility in various fields. This versatility makes Rhino an indispensable tool for both professionals and enthusiasts alike.
