CAD in Context, How Physical Parts Factor-In to Your Digital PLM World

Do you have physical parts laying around with no CAD? Have you invested substantial amounts of money in PLM or PDM systems, only to have a large portion of your products sitting squarely outside this system? As 3D Imaging has progressed, we see it converging with the regular digital domain of design. Via Imaging, you can take that “legacy” part, and get a 3D representation of it. How you use that data has been the question for over 10 years.

First, let’s talk about why your CAD or PLM system doesn’t understand 3D scan data. Now we see an apples-to-oranges problem: how do you take apples and make them into oranges? This presentation looks at the different generations of software trying to solve this dilemma. Closing with the latest generation, we see a way to take 3D Scan data, and make it work with our system, instead of outside of it. We look at a case study of a game controller, and how we can create everything from drawings to assemblies to tooling, just like a “real” part. The only difference being it wasn’t created in our PLM originally.
