 | Cleaning Dirty Geometry in SpaceClaim Not only can problematic geometry cause painful interoperability issues, it can also create downstream errors. Whether you're editing CAD data, prepping models for CAM, de-featuring for CAE, or communicating between organizations, you need clean, valid, watertight models. SpaceClaim's easy repair tools clean geometry from anywhere with push-button simplicity. It's like a spell checker for your 3D data. In this webinar you'll see how SpaceClaim can: -
Create watertight models from dirty imported STEM and IGES files -
Make edits quickly and easily, without having to use a complicated CAD system -
Prepare the parts for downstream use -
Work with any customer CAD data View the webinar |

Geomagic Plus SpaceClaim: Reverse Engineering and Direct Modeling When reverse-engineering, not only do you need to create precise, water-tight geometry, you also need to update the geometry to fit in the context of new design situations. In the past, the only option was to recreate tedious feature-based models and guess at underlying design intent: an error-prone and hazardous practice.
Now, Geomagic and SpaceClaim have partnered to integrate their industry-leading reverse engineering and direct modeling products to allow you to both reconstruct and edit precise geometry. Geomagic creates clean meshes and converts them to watertight geometry. SpaceClaim then quickly edits the designs, adjusting tolerances and accommodating design changes – all without resorting to complex feature-based CAD systems or being forced to re-invent design intent.
This webinar, presented by experts at Geomagic and SpaceClaim, will show: -

Customizing SpaceClaim Using its API Have you ever wanted a special button in SpaceClaim that automated a common task, talked to other programs, or modified your model? Do you have in-house code that’s difficult to maintain? Have you ever wanted to add your own objects to a SpaceClaim design? Do you have special file formats you want to read and write? It’s never been easier than with the SpaceClaim API.
SpaceClaim’s free API provides the best platform for solid modeling application development of any mechanical CAD application. Not only is the API versioned, thread-safe, and .NET, but anything you create can take advantage of SpaceClaim’s powerful direct modeling capabilities. Unlike feature-based CAD systems that force you to develop tools that fit with the history-based paradigm, SpaceClaim lets you work with your geometry however you want. In particular, this webinar will cover: -
An overview of what the API can do, with dozens of examples of both professional and entertaining applications -
An introduction to the basic concepts of 3D MCAD programming, such as transformations and part instancing -
How to get started with your own customizations and tools Unlike many of our webinars, which assume that the audiences has little experience with CAD, this webinar will assume that you have some experience with (or interest in) programming in 3D. View the webinar |

Attacking Castings with SpaceClaim If
you’ve ever designed a casting in a 3D CAD tool, you probably had
moments where you considered changing careers. Traditional
feature-based CAD systems just weren’t designed with your geometry in
mind, and they can make basic edits unnecessarily painful. SpaceClaim
provides a new approach that can cure a lot of common casting problems.
We’ve had a bunch of customers show us how, and we thought we’d share
it with you. This webinar will show: -
Importing CAD parts from different CAD systems -
Cleaning up complicated CAD geometry -
Removing rounds from the toughest parts -
Adjusting round radii and draft angles -
Creating in-process models from as-cast to as-machined -
Documenting machining operations -
Documenting in 2D drawings and with 3D PMI If
you make castings, forgings, and complex molded geometry, but haven’t
seen SpaceClaim, you’re in for a treat. We hope you’ll attend. View the webinar |

Modern Machine Shop/MoldMaking Technology Magazine Sponsored Webinar:
CAD Got You Down? Imagine a CAD tool that can read parts from any CAD system, fixes dirty geometry, and won’t cost you a penny for training.
Okay, you can stop laughing now.
Actually, it does exist, and it’s called SpaceClaim. It’s a new CAD
tool that’s becoming a lot of machine shops’ secret weapon. We’re doing
a webinar on it that will quickly show: -
How to repair problematic geometry and create tool path-ready models -
Creating fixtures in hours instead of days -
Adjust rounds, drafts and wall thicknesses on parts, regardless of origin -
Open, edit, and derive parts from any CAD data from any customer -
