Streamlining Product Development: Designing from Scan Data with Geomagic and FARO
3 likes851 views
The webinar focuses on streamlining product development using laser scanning technology with Faro and Geomagic software. It covers the Faro Edge ScanArm, its applications in non-contact inspection, and the capabilities of Geomagic Spark for creating and editing CAD models from scan data. Attendees are invited to participate in a Q&A session and access the webinar recording afterwards.

- 5. Laser Scanning with FARO
- 6. About FARO FARO is the world’s most trusted source for 3D measurement technology. The Company develops and markets computer-aided measurement and imaging devices and software. Products Include • • • • Articulating Measurement Arms: Edge / Gage Laser Trackers: Vantage Laser Scanners: Focus3D Software: CAM2 / SCENE
- 7. Laser Scanning with FARO Type of digitization that uses laser systems to capture data without touching the part. • Includes white and blue light systems, as well as laser line probes, used with portable CMM’s. • We will focus on those types of probes that can be used in tandem with an articulated arm (e.g. Laser Line Probes (LLPs)
- 8. Laser Scanning with FARO How Scanning Works • A Laser Line Probe (LLP), a non-contact scanner, attached to a seven-axis FaroArm • Laser projects a line onto object surface • Camera determines the location for each point along the stripe • Points are rendered in a point cloud
- 9. Laser Scanning with FARO A scan with an LLP will produce a point cloud, which is just a large 3D group of points that correspond to the geometry measured. • Point clouds can be exported to CAD and turned into models • They can also be used for inspection
- 10. FARO Edge ScanArm The World’s First “Smart” Arm • Integrates seamlessly with Geomagic SPARK • Integrated touch screen and operating system • Wireless connectivity • Lightweight LLP (2.7 oz) • Fast data capture: 45,000 points per second
- 11. FARO Edge ScanArm The LLP (1) Laser Emitter (2) Camera (3) Calibration Plate
- 12. APPLICATIONS Non-Contact Inspection Inspect soft, deformable or complex shapes; perform cloud-to-CAD comparison, rapid prototyping, reverse engineering, and 3D modeling First Article Inspection Easily measure and compare prototype parts to nominal data CAD-Based Inspection Measure directly against CAD data; see real-time deviations from nominal Reverse Engineering Digitize a part or object to create a fully-surfaced CAD model
- 13. Geomagic SPARK
- 14. About Geomagic • We make the real, digital. And the digital, real. • Leading 3D software for scanning, design, inspection and interaction • 15+ years 3D leadership; over 17,000 global customers • Acquired Sensable Technologies in April, leaders in organic design software and haptic) virtual touch) devices • Customers in all industry segments, from one-person design shops to the world’s largest automotive companies; education, government, research and medical facilities
- 15. Geomagic SPARK A new scan-to-CAD modeling software, developed by Geomagic using SpaceClaim’s API
- 16. Overview The Industry’s Most Comprehensive Platform — Specialized for Mechanical Part Design — Stand Alone Solution — Assemblies — Tolerances — Prints — Perfect Solution for — Mechanical Designers — More Prismatic Shapes — Manufacturing Ready Parts
- 17. Overview Seeking the Perfect Combination Live Scanning & Probing Point Cloud & Mesh Editing CAD Modeling
- 18. Overview What is SPARK? — Geomagic’s powerful point and mesh tools integrated within SpaceClaim modeling environment — A natural “home” for the fitting features within CAD — Leverages SpaceClaim’s direct, interactive CAD modeling toolset to make geometry creations easy!
