3D Scan alignments for CAD / CAM /CAE

Overview

3D Scan alignments for CAD / CAM /CAE

Normally, the CAD part we import in the reverse engineering software does not have coordinate points initially, and they are called hanging coordinates. The purpose of digital alignment is to position the part, arrest the coordinates (0,0,0) points during any manufacturing or machining process so that the parts won’t move and be completely locked in a position. In Geomagic Design X, a feature called Align wizard is present, and it has different alignment modes. The first one is regional alignment in which regions are created in the geometrical features and positioning is made using the X and Y vector. This is also called segment alignment. The second method is Interactive alignment, which is a profile based sketch alignment. The hanging coordinates will automatically be fixed to (0,0,0) based on the sketch entities and if we move to any point in the plane, it will be fixed at the origin point only.
