What is Point2CAD?

SolidWorks CADPoint2CAD is an indispensable software for intuitively reverse-engineer physical parts into SolidWorks CAD environment.

With Point2CAD you can easily create parametric solid models from your physical part.

Using an arm is like using your mouse, but with the added ability to capture data live in 3D.

Define coordinate systems, probe features such as circles, slots and much more to generate the ideal model. You can even check your work or get guidance for defining tolerance, by probing over the part using the deviation check function.

Features

  • Sketch Entities - Sketch lines, circles, ellipses, splines, slots, planes and other elements with your measuring arm.
  • AutoSketch – Quickly sketch profile perimeters.
  • Probe Compensation – Automatically apply offset values to compensate probe tips.
  • Command Plate - Work faster without a mouse or keyboard.
  • Leapfrog – Reposition the measuring arm around larger parts.
  • Best-Fit Algorithms – Apply the optimal faces/entities to represent rougher surfaces.
  • Measurement Modes – Acquire single points or use continuous scan modes.
  • Deviations - Inspect and compare the part to the parametric model.

Point2CAD version 2.3

64-bit Only Version

The P2C version is available for download, with the following improvements:


Sketch Cone function - Cones are created by extruding a circle with the appropriate draft angle. All done within one tool.


Sketch Sphere function - Spheres are created by revolving a circle. Saves the user the extra step of going back to the computer to use the revolve tool.


3D Pipe creation - Quickly create a pipe or tube by sweeping a circle or ring along a path.


Creation of multiple planes at once - Specify any number of reference planes to be created at a uniform step between any two existing reference planes.


Separate functions for extruding boss, cut and surface - The user can now specify which operation to perform.


New Command Plate - Rearranged and extended.


Direct 'Print Command Plate' function - Print command plate button added to the Point2CAD ribbon.


Precitrack3D Preci 3D Track optical tracker - Now supported in Point2CAD 2.3.


6DOF Systems Karbon optical tracker - Now supported in Point2CAD 2.3.
