cyclone-rapidform-solid works

[PICO]

Hey, guys, who knows if anyone can make me clear.
in office use laserscanner leica hds6000 with its cyclone software and the plug-in of autocad clowdworks.
I make reliefs in the yard of a building and then design facade coverings.

so far the quickest system for me was to use cyclone to clean the cloud of points and then switch to autocad and redesign everything "calcandola" to pull out prospects and plants. I just have a simple 2d as a relief in most cases.

in more complex cases (daunted buildings) I used the solid works, which egregiamente manages to open the cloud of points, possibly transform it into mesh and do all the sections you want. his problem is that he is very slow in this job. everything is relative, but in my work it weighs.
a cloud to be transformed into mesh takes several minutes.
(consider that we talk about walls and therefore are not complex surfaces).
I may also not pass from mesh and work directly on the cloud of points by rebuilding the solid of the walls, but in this case the saving of the file is heavy (more than that of mesh) and the display of the little points (when you approach become impalpable and you struggle to distinguish them).

I tried the rapidform and I was surprised at the speed of creating the mesh (actual) and the practicality of "affection" in sections and the creation of maximum bulking plans.
the problem is then the passage of the file from rapidform to solidworks.
compatible formats between the two are .obj, -ply, .stl, .step , .igs.

in stl I find myself with a file type "image" not dissectable and I do nothing
in igs I find myself with an empty file
in step gives me error
I remain obj and ply, but in both cases I find myself only with a mesh and I lose all the polylines and the reference plans that I had created in rapidform.. .
Is there a way to keep them?
or to speed up the mesh creation of solidworks? (I already have the parameters at the minimum)
or to view the points of the cloud a bit more marked in solidworks?

Thank you!

solidworks is not intended for reverse, there are no fundamental functions.

a curiosity, is it a relief in Abruzzo?

Hi, Pico. in rapidform there is a command that allows you to pass all the work done by rapidform (actually) in solidworks. This involves not having to save everything. Now I miss the command... However it is very convenient because among other things, it allows you to bring back all the feature tree created in fast solidworks, without losing information.

:finger:

Thanks, guys.
I always do reliefs, it's my job.
from Piedmont to Sicily.
mine is not really a reverse engineering as the relief I need as a base for coating design. These are large buildings, sheds, condominiums, palaces.. .

as in the command of passage.... maybe!!! !
I can't find it....

discovered the ark.
the command in question is on rapidform xor, instead I worked on the 2006 rapidform version.
what is the difference between xor and xos and simple rapidform? ? ? ?

rapidform 2006 underwent a transformation about6 years ago. 2006 was peeled in 3 different products

xor: parametric reverse engineering indicated for projects related to the engineering industry (mechanical, moulds or in any case in all those circumstances where it is necessary to "capture" the initial design of the product by redefining an accurate calf math)

xos: as above but with some limitation: product suitable for reconstruction of rubber maths using nurbs surfaces.

xov. dimensional control, inspection and related activities

export of native projects and with all parametric features is only possible with the xor version and you can export to pro/e, creo, inventor, catia and siemens nx

Hi.

Okay, all right.
I have the doubt if rapidform is the product that suits me.

In practice I find myself with dimensionally huge reliefs (we also talk about 10,000 square meters of surfaces), so very big clouds.

However, these are "stupid" surfaces, i.e. flat walls.

paradoxically we could imagine them as a huge rectangle that has inside other rectangles (doors and windows).

It would take me a software that would not waste time generating a mesh made up of billions of triangles to recreate every mm of the surface. My resulting surface should be a simple rectangular top that approximates the whole wall.

But what I am interested in is to have the contour of all windows and doors and openings on the façade of the building.
Instead I have the impression that the mesh obtained is in any case less detailed than the original cloud of points in the surrounding areas of the relief.
the system that seems more precise to me is to create the solid building in solid works directly from the cloud, but as I said it is very slow in the rescues.. .

if rapidform replaces in this solidworks with greater speed, then it would be perfect. . .

Rapidform allows you to do what you simply bypassing the creation of mesh. you can track contours and sections working, if you want, directly on the cloud of points.

I should have a video that explains this phase.. .
If I can make it accessible for this forum I place it so you get an idea

I remembered this video contribution on youtube:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ivnc0k13log&feature=relmfuall reconstruction was obtained by working on the point cloud (not on the mesh)

precious contribution, yours!
That sounds like what he does to me.
Do you have an idea how much xor costs? ?

at the end of the video also shows an analysis of accuracy.
but was this not exclusive of the xov version? is it on xor?

I can't tell you about the cost, take a ride on the net and ask dealers

accuracy analysis is also present in xor or xos. the xov version manages reports significantly richer in functionality.
