Geomagic for SOLIDWORKS 2019 introduces enhanced importing and scanning, streamlined workflows and enriched user experience enabling you to elevate your 3D scanning workflow and product development process.

Geomgic for SOLIDWORKS is a SOLIDWORKS Certified Gold PartnerGeomagic for SOLIDWORKS is now a SOLIDWORKS Certified Gold Product.

"After implementing Geomagic for SOLIDWORKS into our 3D scanning and design process, we have seen an approximate 30% reduction in cycle time, from initial 3D scanning to having a SOLIDWORKS file ready for the CAD design process."
- Eric S., R&D manager, Yoshimura R&D of America

Imagine being able to capture anything in the physical world and have a digital solid model of it in minutes.
Geomagic® for SOLIDWORKS® is the industry’s most complete integrated Scan-to-SOLIDWORKS CAD software solution. Reduce the time required to build complex 3D models of real world objects by directly scanning or importing scan data into SOLIDWORKS. The advanced, automated wizards quickly and easily create accurate sketches, surfaces or feature-based editable solid parts inside SOLIDWORKS.

Geomagic for SOLIDWORKS is a software toolset that plugs directly into your SOLIDWORKS environment giving you advanced capabilities to make tools point clouds and polygons more usable in your design process. This software supports a range of popular 3D scanners as well as the import of standard point and polygon file formats. You can import data or scan directly in SOLIDWORKS and use the feature extraction wizards to extract CAD sketches, surfaces and solids.

Effortless design at your fingertips
Use proven industry-leading tools from Geomagic directly inside your SOLIDWORKS environment. Easily create solid, feature-based parts using the precise scan registration, automated smoothing, mesh editing, auto sketch creation and intelligent extraction of feature tools implemented inside SOLIDWORKS. Make use of deviation analysis tools along-side your modeling process to confidently create CAD bodies that are accurate to your input scan data.

Rapidly recover lost design data
Lost design data? Have an old part with no drawings? Have worn or broken molds that need to be reverse engineered? Bring legacy parts into your SOLIDWORKS CAD design environment and combine scan-driven modeling with dimension-driven processes. Geomagic for SOLIDWORKS lets you quickly and easily recreate SOLIDWORKS parts for highly complex and broken parts in one seamless scan-based design workflow.

Do the Impossible
Create products that cannot be designed without reverse engineering. Build components that integrate perfectly with existing products or customized parts that require a perfect fit with the human body. Use proven industry-leading 3D scan tools from Geomagic to make organic shapes useful in your SOLIDWORKS environment. Capture the design intent of complex geometry that cannot be measured any other way.

Powerful and Flexible
Create solid parts with Geomagic for SOLIDWORKS. The combination of mesh editing and point cloud processing, automatic and guided feature extraction and accurate and fast exact surface fitting to organic 3D scans help create usable feature-based solid models. Now you can scan virtually anything and create manufacturing-ready designs.

CAPTURE AND SCAN IN SOLIDWORKS
Capture physical objects in 3D directly inside SOLIDWORKS using the Geomagic® Capture™ 3D Scanner - the most powerful, integrated, industrial-grade 3D scanner and software system. Bring the real world into the digital world, and leverage existing shapes and designs in your own. Add complex design elements and build creative models around scanned components.

Features
Color Scanning
- Directly scan into SOLIDWORKS with point color information. Scan data file formats that include vertex colors or texture mapping can be imported. Texture and color information in color scan data can be toggled on or off for better visualization.

Probe Point Command
- Quickly and easily create reference points from a probe device. These points could represent the center of a hole, a point to extrude to, or the building blocks for more complex geometry.

Extract Reference Point Command
- Create reference points from mesh objects that can be used for downstream workflows, such as spline and surface creation.

Wide support of 3D scanners
- Geomagic for SOLIDWORKS supports a range of industrial 3D scanners for direct Scan-to-SOLIDWORKS including Creaform, FARO, Hexagon, Nikon, Vialux and the Capture scanner from 3D Systems.

3D Comparison with Deviation Analysis with Geomagic for SOLIDWORKS
- Quickly and easily compare a CAD object and a mesh object. Every wizard in Geomagic for SOLIDWORKS has a deviation analysis tool to check feature accuracy as you model. Get real-time information on your features to help make design decisions and maintain design intent.

Geomagic® for SOLIDWORKS® Region Grouping Tools for Detailed Mesh Segmentation
 - This intuitive pre-processing step allows for the intelligent grouping of scan data elements for feature extraction directly inside SOLIDWORKS

Point cloud processing directly inside SOLIDWORKS
- Use the intuitive Geomagic scan processing tools directly inside SOLIDWORKS

Geomagic for SOLIDWORKS Automatic Surfacing
