SOLIDWORKS is an impressive 3D modeling software widely used in the engineering and design industry. While it excels in creating 3D models from scratch, there are times when you need to work with existing physical objects. In these cases, 3D scanning technology and software come to the rescue. In this article, we'll show how to 3D scan inside SOLIDWORKS using the Geomagic for SOLIDWORKS add-in.
3DEXPERIENCE World 2025 is heading to Houston, TX, from February 23-26, and we are excited to be a part of it! As always, GoEngineer will host a Customer Appreciation Night and offer a variety of technical sessions led by our outstanding technical team. There will be many opportunities to learn, network, and have a great time. This guide will provide a brief preview of this year's event and give you a glimpse of what to expect.
Automated scanning can be a great benefit to inspection and reverse engineering workflows. The less operator intervention required to complete a proper scan, the better. The Artec Micro II is an accurate, automated, turntable-style scanner, and Artec Studio 18 software pairs brilliantly with it.
Artec 3D has done it again. On the heels of the new and improved Artec Spider II comes the Artec Point - their first handheld blue laser scanner.
The GoEngineer Customer Portal is a great tool for managing your users, training, assets, and other resources that GoEngineer has to offer. Two of the strongest assets available are the ability to manage users and then assign/access training from either your success plan or the classes you have purchased. This article is a guide for users with Professional admin-level access (typically CAD admin or IT) to utilize these assets fully. Let's start with how to add users to the customer portal.
Artec 3D recently announced the Spider II, a new target-free handheld 3D scanner capable of capturing intricate details in ultra-high resolution and full color. From small objects to large industrial parts, the Spider II produces impressive results, offering twice the resolution, 4x the speed, and smarter algorithms than its predecessor.
Quality issues that go unresolved throughout the production process can significantly impact a company's bottom line. Therefore, it's important to implement effective quality control processes and tools to reduce what can be a significant cost.
Whether you’re manufacturing your 5 millionth widget or your very first, your QC system is only as good as its operators and those operators are only as good as their tools. But in order to find the correct tool for the job, consider these first.
The peel 3 is a structured light 3D scanner developed by Peel 3D that offers an accessible, affordable, and efficient way to digitize physical objects. This article provides an overview of its capabilities, features, and potential applications.
