RapidformXORedesign²
Rapidform XOR/Redesign is the first software solution that allows users to go from 3D scan data to a fully parametric CAD model. While traditional 3D scan data processing software has focused solely on improving the tools for optimizing polygon mesh models or generating high quality NURBS surfaces from 3D scan data, the needs of those who require parametric CAD model from 3D scan data have been largely ignored. Rapidform XOR addresses the limitations of existing 3D scan data processing software by complementing its mesh modeling and NURBS surfacing capabilities with newly developed CAD modeling capabilities, providing users with the tools to go from 3D scan data to a parametric CAD model. Before the development of Rapidform XOR, those who wanted to make design modifications to their reverse engineered models in their CAD applications were forced to: 1. Export an un-editable, "dumb" surface model that lacked parametricity Creating a parametric CAD model from 3D scan data allows users to fully realize the value of 3D scanning. Rapidform XOR features a set of tools designed specifically to address the unique requirements of reverse engineering, ensuring that the final redesigned model is built within user-defined tolerances.
Parametric CAD Models from 3D Scan DataRapidform XOR/Redesign employs a completely new approach to reverse engineering and processing 3D scan data. Rather than simply improving the existing methods of creating static models from 3D scan data, Rapidform XOR empowers users to create parametric CAD models from 3D scan data while utilizing the design process and user interface of popular CAD applications. The innovative design process and user interface of Rapidform XOR provide benefits that increase the productivity of users. The design process and user interface of Rapidform XOR reduce the learning curve by utilizing the CAD modeling skills that most engineers already possess. In addition to its reduced learning curve, the design process of Rapidform XOR leads to increased time savings when compared to the surface fitting methods of existing 3D scanning software. The accuracy of the redesigned model is ensured to be built within user defined allowable tolerances through the use of the Accuracy Analyzer™, which provides real time deviation analyses throughout the design process. The Accuracy Analyzer tool in Rapidform XOR provides users with real time deviation analysis results based on user defined tolerances. The tool ensures the accuracy of the final model while saving modeling time by integrating the inspection tool within the design process, which eliminates the time consuming cycle of executing a deviation analysis in a separate software, modifying the model to correct the undesirable deviation, and repeating that process until the final part is redesigned within an allowable tolerance. Key Benefits from Rapidform XOR/Redesign A great time & cost saver saving 80% + over conventional reverse engineering work flow while staying in the allowable deviation range The design process and user interface in Rapidform XOR/Redesign have been developed to be instantly familiar to users of popular CAD applications, leading to incredible time savings over traditional reverse engineering software while simultaneously creating output in the form of parametric CAD solid models. Time savings can be realized through: 1. A reduced learning curve through the use of a familiar CAD interface and design process 2. A design process that removes the time consuming requirement of cleaning the scan data of a part 3. A single software solution that fulfills the scan data processing, mesh healing and CAD modeling needs 4. A intelligent tool that automatically extracts design feature parameters from 3D scan data – Redesign Assistant™ 5. A built in, real time deviation analysis tool – Accuracy Analyzer™ 6. A smart tool that intelligently indentify and align 3D scan data to an ideal design coordinate system – Align Wizard™ Because the interface and design process of Rapidform XOR were developed to be similar to popular CAD applications, users can utilize their existing CAD modeling skills to immediately begin designing in Rapidform XOR. Internal benchmarking tests have shown a time savings of up to 80% when using Rapidform XOR over the traditional surface fitting methods in great part because the design process removes the need to clean the scan data of a part. A complete scan of a part is unnecessary provided there is enough data to recognize design parameters. Seamless Interoperability with Full Modeling History to CAD System CAD models are the industry standard for communicating design parameters and manufacturing requirements. Reverse engineering 3D scan data to a parametric CAD model can be useful for a variety of applications including benchmarking, creating a CAD model for a part that lacks documentation, or for creating a CAD model from a clay model. Once the 3D scan data of a part has been modeled in Rapidform XOR, a fully parametric CAD model with modeling history can be exported and modified in a variety of CAD applications including SolidWorks, Pro/Engineer and UG NX. From the user perspective, it will be as if the model had originally been designed from scratch in CAD. Capture Design Intent! While generating a NURBS surface model is very useful for creating an exact digital representation of the 3D scan data of a part, it is also limited in the modifications that can be made to the model. Rapidform XOR can create an idealized CAD model from 3D scan data that can identify and define design parameters. With Rapidform XOR, a fillet can be represented as a fillet with a defined radius rather than a rounded edge in a static surface model.
