Session Abstract

In this advanced session, we’ll explore the complete workflow for taking raw scan data from a 3D scanner and transforming it into fully editable geometry inside SOLIDWORKS. With a strong emphasis on surfacing techniques, you’ll learn how to interpret complex mesh data, build accurate reference geometry, and develop robust surfaces ready for downstream design work. Whether you’re replicating legacy parts, customizing components, or developing new designs from physical prototypes, this session will equip you with the tools and techniques to bridge the gap between the physical and digital worlds.
