created to surface body

[Dum]

Good morning to all,
for a reverse engineering activity, I find myself having some special 3d scanners that are composed of only surfaces (some one).
I do not know the various possibilities of scanning, but given the costs I have been communicated I doubt that my client intends to try another way.

I have to, make changes, from the most trivial, add a threaded hole, to the most complex, but as a surface I can not manage it.
I know little about the sw surface package and I know, to hear it, that it is one of his heels.

I'd like to know if there's someone who's already banged our nose and knows a way to create a body from a surface.
It would be enough to "fill" the internal space

playing with various surface commands (no, no thickening does not work ) I did not come to anything.

with the simplest details I got rid of them by redesigning them using sketches linked to the surfaces and the result is more than good but there are a couple of details with complicated processes, rays in particular that to remake from 0 would cost me whole days of work without being sure to replicate them (condition necessary)

I try to attach a step, in case someone was so kind to throw his nose in it.

Thank you, good day!

the step was bad
I fixed it and solidified it, you should read it with solidworks.

there is a threaded hole but the thread in the step is not recognized.
control the position of that threaded hole

Let me know.

Hi.

Hi.
I created the solid from your file. see if you understand by looking at the features I used, if you have any doubt, ask yourself

 

[Dum]

I start with thanking you both, you were very kind and you both caught in the sign.
I do not know @vittori I don't know what way he used.
@asblo (there is family air in that photo ) I thank you and honestly I would never have come to use "filling the surface.
Fortunately I work little with the surfaces, and surface filling (and eliminates hole) I have always used them to put pieces from the disastrous mathematicians (early to think it's sw's fault) that come from the automotive. .

your work, on my native model does not make me complete the fill command. .
the notice is on the possibility of other surfaces intersecting.. o

Now I'll put a little on it, and if I solve it, I'll let you know.
It can't work for you and not me, I copied like a monkey...

thank you very much to both for the kindness

 

[Vittorio]

I don't know if @vittorio works with sw or not, I don't know which road he used.

Hi.
No, I have used caia, I have no solidworks, but I think the principle is equal.
your native step was bad, I had to delete the thread surfaces performed in 3d, sew the solidifying surfaces perform the thread hole and pass the step.
ps:
Who knows why do threads in 3d
definitely spectacular.. but practically useless

It's the result of a 3d scan.
for me it's the first time, I didn't know, if not for me bosses, the features of the outgoing models. .
we say that it can come back useful in cases like these, which with row and caliber became impossible to replicate the object, but for cases less "style" row and caliber are sufficinet and cheaper

I first did the diagnostic trying to correct the faces with that, which is the automatic solid tool. then see the faces or surfaces that can't solve and at that point try to eliminate them by isolating them from the "good" part, I made a cylinder. so you remain a hole and at that point you use the patch function looking to scour "crea solid"when it amounts files made with other modelers it is normal that they can arise errors, especially if they are software "conceptually" a little different, type from catia that is a super modeler of surfaces to solidworks that is a cad more from solid bodies. Even worse if it's a 3d scan.
However, if you know how to turn it off at the end, you take it home, it's that it often takes a lot of "smanettone fantasy"

 

[Vittorio]

is the result of a 3d scan

Here. I had not read your first post well
now it is clear

 

[Dum]

I did.
I don't understand how but I did.

on the "native" file (the first conversion made by the step received by who scans, did not let me do it.
All right until I tried to "unite and create the solid" with the command "filling the surface".

It's been Christ since 13.30. .

I tried to convert the file I posted, but idem.
Nothing.

I tried to convert the "native" file again and import it to a new file.
the cycle of commands @asblo It didn't work, but I still came to a solution. .

this the asblo treethis my in which I had to add a command, which managed me the union and formation of the solid
do not ask me, as why (and above all how many b€st€mmi€ I pulled.
I never would have come alone.

Thank you so much!!

I take advantage of this discussion to ask a question to solidworks experts.
I think solidworks is a good program and I wanted to see if it has this possibility that I attach an image as an example.
the question and:
is it possible to cut a surface with a solid?
Thank you.

should be possible with the intersectional command

 

[ceschi1959]

allego file parasolid. importing into nx I got what is called a sheet body (in nx a surface is a solid volume 0). I took a cylinder to the surface, used the faces of the cylinder properly cut, sewn everything and obtained a solid.
As sw uses parasolid, these operations should be able to do them. I don't know the exact commands.

 

[asblo]

Yes, there's intersection. possibly you can create surfaces that make up the solid and cut with those

 

[MassiVonWeizen]

a often overlooked command is delete face with the option fill

 

[asblo]

true, does what the patch does with "fills" but saves you to select the contours

Hi.
yes there is and is one of the few commands that use surface.
is called "surface cut"

 

[MassiVonWeizen]

delete face I used it often to eliminate the rays of the steps of the parts from folded sheet. if you have to do it with cuts and extrusions or crazy exits, with that only command instead you do it in seconds

Yes, there's intersection. possibly you can create surfaces that make up the solid and cut with those

Thank you.
