Simulation software PolyWorks|Modeler™

qualityengineeringCAD

The reverse-engineering solution that enables true interoperability between digitized polygonal models and your CAD/CAM applications PolyWorks|Modeler™ is a comprehensive reverse-engineering software solution that allows extracting optimal CAD entities—curves, surfaces, parametric sketches, and prismatic features—from polygonal models of digitized parts to serve as the starting point in your professional CAD modeling solution. Polygonal Modeling The first step in a reverse-engineering workflow consists in transforming digitized point clouds into surface-based polygonal models, also called meshes. Polygonal models are more compact, more accurate, and less noisy than raw point clouds and are directly handled by industrial applications such as milling, 3D printing, and aerodynamic simulation. Create polygonal models of digitized parts in real time Adopt effective scanning methods that ensure quality and precision with real-time quality meshing technology. Repair and optimize imperfectly digitized geometry Fill holes, smooth and rebuild surfaces, clean boundaries, recover sharp edges, make surfaces watertight, and more. Apply CAD operations to polygonal models Extrude boundaries, offset surfaces, reconstruct fillets, perform Boolean operations with CAD models, and more.
