3D modeling where you can do it to a correct size......
I make disability products some parts need to be form fitting.
Hi there,
Best thing I know of for rebuilding point-clouds, which is what I think you mean by 'scanning data', is MeshLab... it's designed for this... and has excellent tools to align multiple scans automatically and so forth....
Re: dimensional accuracy... you can definitely create dimensionally accurate meshes in 3DSMAX or gmax.... I made several of my machine plate components... and things like ball-nut mounting blocks.. and bearing mounts etc... based on 3DSMAX / gmax models....
As I said previously.. cnc_toolkit path shapes are built by the user.. so you need to apply a suitable offset to cut the mechanical parts at appropriate size.... just as Fusion builds into the paths shapes
I should say very clearly... this is not an automatic thing... yet.... it's something I've been doing development on.. so I can automate it in future...
Hope this helps...
Danny
