Creating Reference Geometry using Reference Coordinates

Rapidform offers a lot of different methods to generate Reference Geometry.  From extraction to definition, you can find a description of how to use all these methods by looking at the Help document, or by pressing F1…

Using CAD Tools to Edit Your Mesh

There may be times when all you need is a nice water-tight mesh. Scan the part, run the Healing Wizard, maybe a Rewrap command, and presto! But what if you want to add a precise feature? Perhaps…

Using the CTRL Key

While helping a customer with a support call the other day, I came across more proof that the developers are more clever than credited. As part of their strive to make sure the software is intuitive, a lot…

If you’ve ever had to manufacture a really complex, organic shape, you may have wanted to split the model along a parting line for machining. Well, this can be a very tough job without a very powerful tool, plus a little guidance. Luckily,…

The Rewrap Command (part 3)

We all know that the Rewrap command is useful for interpolating mesh data as well as smoothing noisy data. This post continues our look at the command with a third example. The first two examples can be…

XOR’s Boundary Fit Surfacing function helps you to easily create a surface body using boundary curves on the mesh, even if the mesh is a complex freeform shape.

This technical tip will help you understand how to create a high quality fitting surface.

Step 1:

In XOV, you can obtain several types of inspection results, such as deviation maps, section profiles, etc. during the inspection process. However, the results will be recorded as captured images. If, instead, you want to print out sections at their true scale, you can export…
