Polyworks Inspector
Polyworks Inspector
Polyworks Inspector is an industrial 3D metrology software with a strong focus on portable 3D scanning and probing applications.
A comprehensive inspection solution ideal for individual part reporting or full assembly reports, Polyworks inspector has many tools for industry alignment standards, freeform surface inspection and GD&T analysis.
Attributes
Align
The inspection of a component always begins with the alignment of a datum reference system defined either on the CAD model or 2D drawing. This alignment is probably the single most important part of quality control inspection as ‘poor’ or incorrect alignments can mean incorrect inspection and thus not giving engineers the correct feedback they need to make decisions. Polyworks has class leading alignment tools to align from:
- Surfaces or cross-sections allowing completely freeform fit or constrained in a particular axis or rotation.
- GD&T datum reference based alignments
- RPS – Reference Point System alignments
- Virtual Gauge alignments – Gap and Flush, caliper and air foil.
.
Measure
The extraction of measured dimensions from either point cloud or polygonal models is at the core of the Inspector module. Define exact parameters for the accurate extraction of surface, boundary, and cross-sections measurements. Once defined these measurements can be saved into part inspection sequences to rapidly measure multiple components and produce consistent reports.
Polworks Inspector can measure:
- Surface, boundaries and cross-sections to nominal data
- GD&T dimensions and datums
- Real-time assembly guidance
- Advanced dimensions – Flush and Gap, Profile Radius, Airfoil measurement and thickness
.
Report
Polyworks reporting module has advanced technology that enables graphics and inspection tables to be defined in a particular layout and format, defined by the end-user, to create reports bespoke to each company and exactly as they require the ‘look and feel’. This template is accurately repeated and updated for multiple part inspection requiring no user intervention by the operator.
Polworks Viewer offers a unique way to share inspection projects companywide without the need for additional software licences.

Geomagic Wrap
GEOMAGIC WRAP
Scan – Process – Edit- Surface
SCAN IT, MESH IT, SURFACE IT. IN MINUTES
Geomagic Wrap is the perfect software solution to convert scan data from digitisers/3D scanners into usable 3D mesh models and surface models, for use in downstream 3D processes such as reverse engineering, 3d printing and quality control inspection.
Attributes
Revolutionise Your 3D Workflows
Geomagic Wrap enables users to transform point cloud data, probe data and imported 3D formats into 3D polygon meshes for use in manufacturing, analysis, design, entertainment, archeology and analysis.
Powerful Processing
Powerful point cloud processing tools quickly and easily clean large RAW point clouds before converting them into triangulated 3D mesh models. Extensive toolsets exist to analyse and repair triangulated surfaces to create clean watertight topology end exportable in neutral formats such as STL, OBJ, VRML and IGES.
Key Features
- Support for the industry’s widest range of non-contact 3D scanning and probe devices.
- Point cloud editing and fast creation of accurate polygonal models based on the 3D scan data.
- Powerful Remesh tool for fast, accurate create clean polygon models from dirty scan data.
- Polygon editing tools for hole filling, smoothing, patching and water tight model creation.
- Immediately use the data from Geomagic Wrap for 3D printing, rapid prototyping, and manufacturing.
- Extensive Exact Surfacing tools give more control over your surface quality and layout, and allows for total control over NURBS patch layout, surface quality, and continuity.
- Precise surfacing of the model into NURBS using the easy and comprehensive Exact Surfacing interface.
- File export formats include: WRP, IGES, X_T, SAT, PRC, Step, VDA, NEU, 3ds, dxf, ply, stl, wrl, obj
Auto-Surfacing
Geomagic Wrap has automated functions to create rapid Nurbs surfaces for those applications that require CAD surfaces such as IGES or STEP. This surfacing technique is particularly suited to organic 3D models such as archeology, buildings, art and sculpture.
