• Use high-density point clouds of digitized prototype parts & assemblies to quickly identify deformations and to fix problems in the earlier stage of the manufacturing process
• Approve your manufacturing process by fully inspecting your first-assembled products
• Monitor the production cycle by automatically measuring the wear of tools and quickly detecting any abrupt degradation in product quality
• Verify the compliance of final manufactured and assembled products through sample check inspection using automated techniques

PolyWorks/Modeler^TM (for reverse engineering) allows you to:

≡ Generate manufacturable class A polygonal models

• Transform aligned point clouds into highly accurate polygonal models using PolyWorks' unique tolerance-based adaptive meshing technology
• Reconstruct perfect polygonal features from imperfectly digitized geometry
• Apply all typical CAD operations directly to polygonal models and prepare these models for a wide variety of manufacturing applications such as milling, rapid prototyping, reverse engineering, inspection, CFD & FEA, digital review and so on

≡ Create smooth and logical NURBS surfaces easily editable in CAD software

• Use automatic feature-tracking tools to quickly create curve networks. Curves can also be extracted interactively using only one mouse click
• Constrain the automatic surfacing process to predefined curves in order to create more logical curve networks
• Control the rigidity of the fitted NURBS surfaces, mimicking a sheet metal material for getting super-smooth surfaces without ripples
• Optimize your subsequent efforts in the downstream CAD application by minimizing the number of control points and patches, increasing the smoothness of patches, and easily creating perfect feature curves
