Geomagic Studio

With Geomagic Studio, you can digitally reconstruct an infinite variety of complex real

world shapes more quickly and easily than ever before. Using 3D scan data of these

objects, you'll be able to create accurate models that capture either the design intent or the

as-built part. From product design, re-engineering of parts and mass customization to

engineering analysis, rapid prototyping and digital archiving, Geomagic Studio opens up

a new world of possibilities by bringing your physical parts into the digital realm.

 

Certified by the PTB (Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt), Geomagic Studio is

powered by patented technology and algorithms that produce high quality surfaces,

accurate geometry, color and textures.

 

Geomagic Fashion

With the new Fashion module for Geomagic Studio, you can quickly extract design intent

and recreate original surface aesthetics from existing physical objects to create CAD-

ready files that are ideally suited for downstream work in your favorite CAD system. You

begin by using Geomagic Wrap to clean up the scan data and create a polygonal model.

Geomagic Fashion automatically analyzes the scanned object to identify a wide variety of

analytic surfaces (planes, cylinders, cones and spheres) and swept surfaces (extrusions,

drafted extrusions and rotationals). Plus, it automatically creates high quality complex

freeform surfaces - a task that requires a tremendous amount of time and effort in

traditional CAD packages.

 

Geomagic Fashion guides you through the surfacing process in five easy steps.

 

 

Step 1: Detect Contours

In the detect contours phase, the software automatically defines the surface regions of the

model - presenting them in a variety of unique colors separated by red boundaries. Using

the editing tools, you can paint over the boundaries to further refine the segmentation.

Once you are satisfied with your edits, the software extracts the contour curves.

 

Step 2: Edit Contours

Contours can be fine-tuned in the edit contours phase. This ensures that you have optimal

curves. Contours not automatically extracted can be added manually by drawing directly

on the mesh.

 

Step 3: Extend Contours

To create a trimmed model, you must first create an extended contour structure.

Geomagic Fashion offers a unique adaptive method for creating CAD-ready contour

structures. The resulting extended contour structure adapts to the width of high curvature

regions to yield high quality connecting surfaces.

 

Step 4: Edit Extensions

The extended contours ultimately become connecting surfaces that join the primary

surfaces together. Editing the extensions helps ensure the connecting surfaces flow

smoothly into the primaries to create the optimal surface quality.

 

Step 5: Classify Regions and Create Surfaces

Primary surface regions are first classified as one of eight different surface types: planes,

cylinders, cones, spheres, free-form surfaces, extrusions, drafted extrusions and rotations.

Each surface is displayed in a different color for easy identification. Next, you fit the

primaries - controlling parameters such as fitting tolerance, outlier percentages,

dimensions and 2D profiles.
