The Fastest Path from 3D Scans to Your CAD Software

Geomagic Design X (formerly Rapidform XOR), the industrys most comprehensive reverse engineering
software, combines history-based CAD with 3D scan data processing so you can create feature-based,
editable solid models compatible with your existing CAD software.
Broaden Your Design Capabilities

Leverage Existing Assets

Instead of starting from a blank screen, start from the real world.
Geomagic Design X is the easiest way to create editable, feature-based
CAD models from a 3D scanner and integrate them into your existing
engineering design workow.

Every design is inspired by another. Make use of the intellectual property


thats locked up in every physical object. Learn from it. Reuse it. Improve
on it.

Accelerate Time to Market

Do the Impossible

Shave days or weeks from product idea to finished design. Scan


prototypes, existing parts, tooling or related objects, and create designs
in a fraction of the time it would take to manually measure and create
CAD models from scratch.

Create products that cannot be designed without reverse engineering.


Customize parts that require a perfect fit with the human body. Create
components that integrate perfectly with existing products. Recreate
complex geometry that cannot be measured any other way.

Enhance Your CAD Environment

Reduce Costs

Seamlessly add 3D scanning into your regular design process so you can
do more and work faster. Geomagic Design X complements your entire
design ecosystem, with native output to SolidWorks, Siemens NX,
Autodesk Inventor, PTC Creo and Pro/Engineer.

Reuse existing designs without having to manually update old drawings


or painstakingly measure and rebuild a model in CAD. Reduce costly
errors related to poor fit with other components.

The Fastest Path from


3D Scans to Your CAD Software
Works Seamlessly with Your Existing CAD

Heavy-Duty Capabilities for Demanding Projects

Geomagic Design X connects directly to popular CAD software, including


SolidWorks, Siemens NX, Autodesk Inventor and PTC Creo. Using
unique LiveTransfer technology, Design X transfers complete models,
including feature trees. So you can quickly create solid and surface
models from 3D scans, transfer the data into your design environment,
and work on them as you would any other CAD model.

Geomagic Design Xs extensive toolset marries CAD tools, industryleading scan processing tools, and all the firepower you need to take on
the most challenging projects. It handles billions of scan points and has
a complete host of features to fix data issues, letting you skip scan cleanup
and begin creating CAD models immediately.

Powerful and Flexible

Works Like Your CAD Software

Geomagic Design X is purpose-built for converting 3D scan data into


high-quality feature-based CAD models. It does what no other software
can with its combination of solid modeling, advanced surface modeling,
mesh editing and point cloud processing. Now, you can scan virtually
anything and create manufacturing-ready designs.

Geomagic Design X is easy to learn and use. In fact, if you can design
in CAD, you can start using Geomagic Design X right away. It uses
familiar history-based modeling tools found in all major CAD products,
along with automated feature extraction from scan data.
