Cyborg3D MeshToCAD Launches

IntegrityWare, Inc. / nPower Software has released a new reverse engineering software product: Cyborg3D MeshToCAD.

Cyborg3D MeshToCAD is a standalone software product that is designed to improve the process of converting mesh geometry (scanned meshes, high poly meshes like ZBrush, and other meshes) into CAD geometry. Cyborg3D MeshToCAD is the latest product built on top of IntegrityWare's standalone Cyborg3D platform. Cyborg3D MeshToCAD is a tool for converting scanned meshes into fully functional CAD (NURBS) models; Cyborg3D MeshToCAD is made for converting even very large meshes into accurate NURBS geometry. Cyborg3D MeshToCAD provides accuracy / model size; the technology produces a lightweight model, while capturing fine details in the mesh surface. Where other systems fail to deal with large or detailed meshes, Cyborg3D's addaptive technology solves complex and difficult meshes. 

Cyborg3D MeshToCAD allows the user to control the level of detail they want to preserve in the mesh. Scanned meshes can be difficult to process and time-consuming, but Cyborg3D MeshToCAD provides a full set of useful tools for detecting mesh issues and cleaning them up for accurate conversion. With its automated, efficient workflow, Cyborg3D MeshToCAD can quickly and easily process even very large mesh files (like the large, high poly mesh files often created by ZBrushor other high poly modeling products). Cyborg3D MeshToCAD produces high-quality NURBS surfaces / solids, with G2 continuity along the edges. It produces STEP, IGES, or SAT files, which can be imported directly into virtually all CAD systems. Cyborg3D MeshToCAD is based on the Power Surfacing RE (Reverse Engineering) product for SOLIDWORKS, with virtually the same set of tools (and the same underlying technology). Cyborg3D MeshToCAD is priced at $1,995. 

Cyborg3D is built using modern software architecture techniques (Object Oriented Modeling, C#, Managed Code, multi-threaded parallel processing, OpenGL, etc.). Its multi-threaded architecture is designed for dealing with large assemblies and compute intensive functionality. And its modern architecture is built to make the product easy to maintain and enhance, the company reports.

Cyborg3D is based on IntegrityWare’s SOLIDS++ geometric modeling Kernel, a hybrid modeling system that supports Solids, Surface and Polygonal modeling. nPower modeling tools (Power NURBS, Solids, Translators) provide surfacing, solids modeling, analysis, and tessellation technologies. In addition, Cyborg3D utilizes the new SubD-NURBS library product, which provides conversion between Sub-D geometry and NURBS geometry.
