reverse

Thanks to its powerful versatility and its seamless compatibility with VISI and every other CAD/CAM/CAE application, VISI Reverse can be applied in a wide range of disciplines and applications. VISI Reverse customers belong to many different industry sectors including: consumer products (industrial shoes, sporting gear, mobile phones), medical (dental braces, knee/hip prosthesis, scans of jaw or face), entertainment (toys, gaming), automotive (conceptual design, die industry) and others.

Fast / accurate mesh management CAD model reconstruction Fully automated or interactive Starting from a point cloud, VISI Reverse automatically creates a dynamic triangulated mesh. Mesh generation is equally fast and accurate and includes curvature meshing to preserve sharp edges and radii. There are many tools for further mesh processing which include: repairing corrupted STL files, elimination of spike and abnormal and irregular triangles, non-manifold geometry correction, smoothing, normal fixing and decimation, fitting selected mesh parts to planes, cylinders, spheres or cones; partial or complete hole filling that is flat or curvature based, bridge between meshes defeature, and boundary fitting to curves to name only a few. VISI Reverse also considers mechanical digitisation process and provides an offset mesh for probe radius compensation. Once generated and refined it is possible to export the resulting triangle mesh into one of the popular formats for 3D mesh models, such as STL, VRML, OBJ and others. Upon importation of polygon-mesh data, VISI Reverse acquires all the necessary information useful for CAD model reconstruction, including edges, vertices, fillets, curves and surfaces. The automatic edge recognition tool rapidly generates all the geometry necessary to rebuild the model. Edge fillet radii are automatically determined and every edge is fully editable; the application also checks the wireframe structure and provides the tools for connecting, editing and deleting curves and edges as well as fitting the Nurbs curves to the point clouds. Nurbs surfaces can be created both automatically or manually with dynamic user interaction. During the process it is possible to evaluate and visualize the quality of point cloud approximation against the 3D model. VISI Reverse covers the entire reverse engineering process, from point cloud management to geometry creation. Depending on the customer requirements VISI Reverse can be used in two ways. The first is completely automatic allowing the user to construct patch surfaces in the shortest time available. The second is interactively from where point cloud data is the starting point for rebuilding the CAD model. In this case, tools are available for correcting and enhancing the point clouds and mesh geometry.VISI Reverse is easy to learn and use (days not weeks) and it provides rapid and accurate results (hours not days). The flexible control from full automation to a more interactive approach makes VISI Reverse suitable for every kind of user and use, from entry level skills to the most demanding applications. tel. +44 (0) 1453 732900 fax. +44 (0) 1453 887444 email. info@vero.co.uk web. www.vero-software.com Vero Software Plc The Mill, Brimscombe Port Brimscombe, Stroud Gloucestershire GL5 2QG United Kingdom
