Swedish headquartered Hexagon has acquired French company Technodigit SARL, the developer of 3DReshaper software.
Based in Lyon, the company’s 3DReshaper software takes three-dimensional data from scanning devices and allows point cloud processing, surface reconstruction and geometric shape extraction.
The 3DReshaper application is a full 3D package on its own, with powerful features like the ability to import point clouds of unlimited size, mesh shaping and editing and 3D surface comparison for inspection.
“The acquisition of Technodigit will enhance our existing portfolio of software solutions. Customers in the aerospace, medical, dental, surveying, automotive, power generation and die and mould markets are demanding the variety of capabilities that Technodigit’s software will bring to the Hexagon product portfolio”, said Ola Rollén, president and CEO of Hexagon AB.
The Technodigit development team will join the Hexagon Metrology software development group, which employs more than 100 in-house developers worldwide.
