| 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. |

Leverage the physical objects you already have There’s no need to start with a blank screen that requires you to input dimensions and shapes when you already have a physical part that represents what you want. With Geomagic Studio, you can leverage these existing assets to shorten the design cycle and prepare models for analysis, CAD or other downstream applications. Create complex freeform shapes in a fraction of the time Creating complex freeform shapes can be a painstaking process using traditional CAD tools—much more laborious than creating a physical model. With Geomagic Studio, you start with the physical model, scan it and then automatically generate perfect continuous surfaces and watertight models that represent it. Advanced editing tools let you further refine the model. Close the loop between digital and physical Changes are a natural part of the design process as concepts are refined and prepared for manufacturing. Changes can also occur once a part is put in use due to wear and tear. Geomagic Studio closes the loop and aligns the physical and digital worlds, ensuring that you have a digital model that accurately represents the current as-built product. There’s no need to manually update existing CAD models to compensate for the differences. Assess true performance characteristics Conducting engineering analysis such as computational fluid dynamics (CFD) or finite element analysis (FEA) on CAD models does not always tell the whole story. By capturing and creating a model of the as-built product, you’ll be able to assess true performance characteristics that you can compare to the theoretical analysis performed on the perfect CAD model. |
 Reproduce design intent With the Geomagic Fashion module, you can quickly extract design intent and recreate original surface aesthetics. The software automatically identifies, analyzes and corrects imperfections in the scan data to create high quality analytic and freeform surfaces that are CAD ready. Analytic surfaces and profile curves can be further manipulated in your favorite CAD package. The result—you’ll spend less time creating the initial form, leaving more time to focus on fit and function. |
