Tech Soft 3D toolkit provides Geomagic inspection with built-in CAD data importers

Collaboration between Geomagic and toolkit provider Tech Soft 3D provides users with a seamless method of integrating scanned and probed data with 3D CAD data. TTF translation libraries, now developed as HOOPS Exchange, enhance Geomagic Qualify 2012 and Geomagic Qualify Probe with the ability to fully integrate and consolidate pertinent information to allow users to define, design, manufacture and service products.

The integration of HOOPS Exchange allows the Geomagic's 3D inspection products to include built-in CAD data importers using native formats of CATIA, NX, SolidWorks, and Creo Elements/Pro (formerly Pro/Engineer) at no cost. Direct integration with the CAD importers delivers reference data directly into the inspection and measurement process to assess deviations quickly. Product manufacturing information (PMI) included with the CAD models can also be imported.

The combination of Geomagic and Tech Soft 3D software, say the companies, will provide users with access to robust capabilities for manufacturers as they identify process and manufacturing weaknesses using 3D inspection tools. Additionally, the comprehensive probing and scanning mechanisms allow manufacturing operations to proceed with confidence in their product quality.
