Reverse engineering allows you to collect incomplete or non-existing design data and manufacture an accurate recreation, safely, of the original product or component.
Join the Hexagon team to learn actionable methods of how to seamlessly reverse engineer any part utilizing smart factory techniques, starting with scanning a part directly into a CAD environment where you can manipulate the model for the CAM process. Hexagon will examine best practices for creating complex toolpaths, reducing cycle times and increasing component quality. Hexagon will explore technologies that verify and optimize your G-Code toolpaths using a true digital twin of the machine, to ensure optimal output.
Primary Topics:
- Scanning technologies for reverse engineering
- Creating a CAD model in realtime and preparing for manufacture
- Toolpath creation for complex geometries
- Verification and optimization of toolpaths prior to production
