Geomagic announces the release of Geomagic Studio 2012, Geomagic Wrap 2012, Geomagic Qualify 2012, Geomagic Qualify Probe and Geomagic Wrap OEM Edition. This suite of software delivers the latest technical advances in 3D scan and probe data transformation, precise polygonal imaging and 3D inspection and metrology.
The user-friendly products include new and optimized commands for faster creation of usable 3D models. These latest releases add to the earlier announcement of the new Geomagic Qualify Probe product, an affordable probing-only 3D inspection product.
Geomagic Studio 2012
Geomagic Studio 2012 transforms scans of physical objects into precise 3D models. It delivers these data into polygon, surface and CAD models for use directly in reverse engineering, product design, art, rapid prototyping and analysis. The data can also be transferred directly from this program as history based parametric models into popular MCAD systems.
The latest version delivers a more robust user interface with simpler commands for complex processes, as well as precise surfacing, powerful automated point cloud data clean-up, and rapid surface repair of models. It has been enhanced to deliver better sketching and patching tools, a new Scripting environment for automation of functions at the command level, and improved handling and viewing of mid- to large-range data. The software processes data faster and can handle much larger point cloud data files, which assist in both mechanical and BIM scanning workflows.
“We have been using Geomagic Studio 2012 in pre-release form because it is so robust,” stated Spike Milligan, of Mimic Studios – a reseller of Geomagic and a beta tester of the new version. “The huge point and polygon models from our Surphaser system now work very well in this latest version. The new Patch tool is extremely useful too, and has already saved us a ton of time a few times a week.”
Geomagic Studio 2012 supports direct output of 3D parametric data into major MCAD platforms including Autodesk Inventor, SolidWorks, CATIA and Creo Elements/Pro (formerly Pro/ENGINEER). With this release, integration with SpaceClaim has been added to deliver access to this powerful direct modeling platform.
Geomagic Wrap 2012
Geomagic Wrap 2012 precisely transforms scan, probe and point cloud data into usable 3D polygon data. New and enhanced tools include intuitive, intelligent processing of mid-range and probe data, automated and precise remeshing of imported 3D polygon data, increased data handling performance, enhanced sketching tools, and the addition of a new scripting environment for advanced automation of key commands.
This software exports more detailed 3D data from scan data into all industry-standard polygonal formats, enabling rapid use in design, visualization, art, prototyping and archive.
Geomagic Wrap 2012 will also be available to many scanner users in the form of Geomagic Wrap 2012 OEM Edition. This software is available exclusively as a bundled systen delivered by selected scanner vendors. It will include many of the new features in Geomagic Wrap 2012, including the significant processing and speed improvements available in this latest version, probing and the latest walk-through features.
Geomagic Qualify 2012
Geomagic Qualify 2012 uses industry-leading technology to deliver 3D inspection and metrology software with precision, speed and comprehensive reporting on the quality of as-built parts for first-article and production inspection, as well as supplier management. This software analyzes precise measurements from a physical object and instantly draws comparisons to a digital model and now includes enhanced support for probe and scanner measurement workflows. NIST and PTB certified precision illuminates the power of this automated 3D inspection tool, which now includes airfoil analysis at no additional cost, enabling all parts in a manufacturing process to be rapidly inspected and analyzed for the best accuracy.
Geomagic Qualify software includes built-in CAD data importers to include native formats of CATIA, NX, SolidWorks, and Creo Elements/Pro (formerly Pro/ENGINEER) at no additional charge. Integrated CAD importers provide reference data in an inspection and measurement process to quickly assess deviations and eliminate reoccurrence.
Geomagic Qualify has been optimized to deliver fast processing speed, delivery of 3D PDF reports that use the .PRC format for greater compression of the data, as well as the addition of a robust scripting interface for command-level automation.
Information, demonstrations, and free trial downloads of Geomagic Studio 2012 are now available.
