Polywork Modeler Overview

PolyWorks Modeler is a comprehensive reverse-engineering software solution that allows extracting optimal CAD entities—curves, surfaces, parametric sketches, and prismatic features—from polygonal models of digitized parts to serve as the starting point in your professional CAD modeling solution.

PolyWorks Modeler's NURBS surfacing technology offers a remarkable balance between lead time and surface quality, thanks to Intuitive curve reshaping methods and curvature-continuous curves, the best NURBS surface-fitting engine on the reverse-engineering market, G2-, G1-, or G0-continuity control over NURBS patch boundaries, Automatic G2 surface fitting in areas where NURBS patches have a rectangular topology and more.

The solid modeling philosophy of PolyWorks Modeler consists in optimizing the extraction of geometric entities on digitized polygonal models, and then transferring these entities to your corporate feature-based solid CAD modeler to guarantee the creation of parametric, associative, and fully editable solid models.
