Geomagic’s 2012 product line Includes reverse engineering program

Geomagic, a provider of 3D software for creating and inspecting digital models of physical objects, has launched some new products for 2012 for reverse engineering and inspection. The release in November of the company's 3D imaging products includes Geomagic Studio 2012, Geomagic Wrap 2012, Geomagic Qualify 2012, Geomagic Qualify Probe and Geomagic Wrap OEM Edition.

Geomagic Studio 2012 transforms scans of physical objects into precise 3D models, then delivers this data into polygon, surface and CAD models for use directly in reverse engineering, product design, art, rapid prototyping and analysis.  The data can also be transferred directly from Geomagic Studio as history-based parametric models into popular MCAD systems. Geomagic Studio 2012 supports direct output of 3D parametric data into major MCAD platforms including Autodeck Inventor, SolidWorks, CATIA and Creo Elements/Pro (formerly Pro/Engineer).

Geomagic Wrap 2012 offers a solution that precisely transforms scan, probe and point cloud data into usable 3D polygon data. It provides the high level performance of automation and instant downstream usability, and includes new and enhanced tools like intuitive, intelligent processing of mid-range and probe data, and automated and precise remeshing of imported 3D polygon data.

Geomagic Qualify 2012 applies what the company calls "industry-leading" technology to deliver 3D inspection and metrology software with precision, speed and comprehensive reporting on the quality of as-built parts for first-article and production inspection, as well as supplier management.  Geomagic claims that this innovative software analyzes highly precise measurements from a physical object and instantly draws comparisons to a digital model and now includes enhanced support for probe and scanner measurement workflows.

Geomagic Qualify software includes built-in CAD data importers to include native formats of CATIA, NX, SolidWorks, and Creo Elements/Pro. Enhanced probing support allows Geomagic Qualify to be used with all major protable CMMs from hard vendors such as FARO, creaform, Hexagon, Nikon, and more.
