Objectif:

The objective of this 2-day training is to enable operators, technicians, engineers and designers with basic knowledge of PolyWorks® Metrology Suite to reverse engineer parts using tools from PolyWorks|Modeler ™. More specifically, it covers the basic key concepts of polygon editing, parametric sketching, and NURBS surfacing.

Prerequisites:

Training is only available to customers whose licenses are covered by a valid support/maintenance contract.

Trainees must have completed the “Basic probing applications for portable metrology” training course. Trainees must have basic computer skills (Windows operating systems).

Structure:

  • File management and PolyWorks interface paths
  • Polygonal model editing
  • Modeling prismatic shapes with sketching tools
  • Modeling free-form shapes with NURBS surfacing tools
