Course Overview

Our Geomagic DX training is a three-day course covering the different modelling techniques to create models based on scan data in Geomagic DX software. Starting from the very basics of the program, the course develops looking at modelling essentials required for day to day use of the software, right through to advanced topics. These techniques will enable the user to model from scan to create ‘Design Intent’ CAD or create a model using Various auto surface techniques.

 

The course is divided into the following topics:

  • User Interface
  • Modelling tools and general features
  • Selection techniques and region editing
  • Scan data editing
  • Alignment and scan registration
  • Modelling from scan data
  • Freeform surfacing and Auto Surfacing
  • Transferring data into SOLIDWORKS
