The Ultimate Scan to CAD Solution
Geomagic Design X is the industry leading reverse engineering software that uses 3D scan data captured from a 3D scanner to create history-based CAD. Instead of designing from scratch, use 3D meshes of real world objects as a starting point for your new design. With Design X, you can create feature-based, editable solid models with history tree compatible with your existing CAD software.
What Can You Do with Geomagic Design X?
![Geomagic Design X Software | GoMeasure3D (1) Geomagic Design X Software | GoMeasure3D (1)](https://i0.wp.com/gomeasure3d.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/geomagic-design-x2020-real-world-to-model.jpg)
Create missing CAD files of existing parts without hassle. This is especially important when you need to create CAD models in volume.
Extract design intent of existing objects that would be difficult to do in any other way.
When you combine 3D scanning with Design X, you get accurate full data capture of real world objects faster compared to using calipers or CMMs.
Scan virtually anything and create manufacturing-ready designs with Geomagic Design X reverse engineering software:
- Rebuild CAD data for legacy parts and tooling
- Design new custom products that fit in, on, or around existing ones
- Document changes made post-prototype or manufacture
- Recreate non-existent or lost CAD data for parts and molds
- Convert physical parts into CAD for new product designs
Complements Your Entire Design Ecosystem
Live Transfer feature allows seamless live data exchange to multiple CAD applications for including:
Live Transfer is one of the most powerful features in the reverse engineering software. Once you completed your solid model in Geomagic Design X, the Live Transfer command transfers whole or partial data to target CAD systems in real-time. Each feature is transferred instantaneously, which yields a parametric model with complete editable feature history in your CAD software as though you created it there originally. The software transfers native CAD data that you can use the same way as any other CAD model—except that it accurately represents a scanned object.
Why Use Geomagic Design X?
Geomagic Design X makes it easy to create editable, feature-based CAD models and integrate them into your existing engineering design workflow. Create manufacturing-ready CAD models directly from scan data in the fastest way possible.

Real-Time Accuracy Analysis Ensures CAD Models Are True
The scan to CAD software has a real-time feedback with patented accuracy analyzer to determine the accuracy of your CAD model on the fly during every step of the reverse engineering process.
Automated Sketching Increases Accuracy
No need to hand-select points to form sketches or rely on visual approximations to guess where the sketches should go. With Geomagic Design X, fit sketch lines, arcs, and curves onto scanned parts more accurately by best fit automatically.
Automated Feature Creation Speeds Up Modeling Process
CAD models have hundreds or thousands of features describing every aspect of a given part. Design X performs common feature modeling operations automatically in seconds including 2D and 3D sketch, revolve, extrude, fillet, shell/thicken, and pipe.
Fitted NURBS Surfacing Capture Complex, Freeform Geometry Easily
Some part regions such as rough, unmachined casting portions do not require design intent extraction. Design X empowers you to capture as-built NURBS geometry automatically to blend automatic surfaces with solid-modeled features seamlessly.
Application
Leading manufacturers are using modern reverse engineering software like Design X to gain a competitive edge throughout the design, manufacture, and maintenance of their products. The software equips you with all the tools you need to do reverse engineering jobs faster, easier all the while saving costs.
