What you'll learn
- How to Reverse Engineer a variety of imported and scanned parts using Siemens Solid Edge.
Description
Create native surfaces on top of imported data by using mesh cleanup tools to remove any errors that may have resulted from the import process, allowing designers to obtain a workable set of triangles. Once you have a sound mesh, regions can be identified and created, and those regions can be further extracted as surfaces and edited using traditional surface modeling tools. All parts designed with Siemens Solid Edge 2021 Academic Software.
Expand your 3D design capabilities beyond the norm. Solid Edge provides intuitive mesh cleanup tools to remove any errors that may have resulted from the import process, allowing designers to obtain a workable set of triangles. Once you have a sound mesh, regions can be identified and created, and those regions can be further extracted as surfaces and edited using traditional surface modeling tools.
Create workable meshes: Imported mesh bodies don’t always meet your needs, so Solid Edge delivers tools to remove specific facets or mesh regions, fill holes and smooth the mesh. These mesh cleanup operations help designers to prepare faceted bodies for downstream modeling and/or manufacturing.
Model preparation made easy: Finding logical facet shapes is paramount to preparing the geometry for analytical surface operations, and the Identify Regions tools permit logical grouping of triangles that can be used in the creation of faces.
Intuitive surface creation: The true power of reverse engineering is realized when you can create native surfaces on top of imported data. Solid Edge delivers commands to not only extract faces from identified regions of the mesh, but also to fit analytical faces on top of a region.
