With Body to Mold, there is a new option for selecting multiple elements, including solids and surfaces, and moving the selected bodies to the mold position. MOLD – Body to Mold: Additional options to existing commands, along with new items of functionality, make part position management considerably easier. “This can save time where curves are used to identify the shape – they can be used to create the relative surfaces, avoiding the need to create a mesh first.”Ī Mesh to Advanced Surface feature has been added for creating a good quality surface, representing an alternative to the standard Mesh to Surface command.
“The new Curve probing feature allows the user to probe a curve alongside the part,” Cafasso says. A Circle/Slot probing feature has been added for probing and designing a circle or slot, giving several options to guarantee the probed element is the correct size and in the correct position. With Point Scanning, the shaded point cloud is now shown during the scanning operation, giving the operator an immediate view of what has been correctly scanned, and if anything is missing.Īn additional option has been added to automatically create a mesh as a scanning result, which Cafasso says is particularly valuable when a quicker, rather than detailed, result is needed.Įnhancements to probing during the Reverse process include the ability to detect the correct diameter of the part in relation to the position of the probed points. And Reverse projects now benefit from faster and more precise surface creation.” ‘Leapfrog’ management in Casting has been reviewed to guarantee correct scanning with the laser tracker, for both small and large parts. “Also, new features have been added to increase the probing solution,” says product manager Marco Cafasso. The scanning operation has been improved with the shaded view, giving better and faster feedback. It is now also possible to zoom in on any potential issues using the Auto Zoom function.ĭevelopments to the CAD Reverse module enhanced the Reverse and Casting processes. Repair functions used in the Repair Invalid Faces of Bodies command are now integrated in the Validate command. The colors and angular value of each range can be changed by simply clicking on the colors or numeric labels on the graphics toolbar.
This uses the same technique as in the undercut mode, but extended to more ranges. Draft Analysis has been added to the existing Undercut and Accessibility shading, performing an on-the-fly analysis of the draft angle. The new release features a number of enhancements, according to the company.ĬAD: CAD analysis benefits from a new function which improves the suite of analysis-shading modes. Hexagon has announced the release of VISI 2021, its specialist mold and die CAD/CAM software.
