The software
Geomagic Design X
Full reverse engineering to design-intent, editable parametric CAD — recreate how the part was designed, not just its surface.

What we cover
The first 2 days are the Geomagic Design X Essentials (2 days)course; the rest is this course’s own.
- Day 1
Scan data and Design X fundamentals
from Geomagic Design X Essentials- Design X interface and workflow
- Importing scan and mesh data
- Mesh preparation and repair
- Alignment and coordinate systems
- Region segmentation and editing
- Creating reference geometry
- Introduction to scan-based modelling
- Day 2
Parametric reverse engineering
from Geomagic Design X Essentials- Creating sketches from scan data
- Extracting dimensions and design intent
- Building parametric CAD features
- Extrudes, revolves, holes, patterns and common features
- Editing the feature tree
- Accuracy analysis against the original scan
- CAD export and LiveTransfer
- Practical reverse-engineering exercise
- Day 3
Advanced modelling and surfacing
- Advanced mesh preparation and editing
- Working with complex and organic geometry
- Freeform surfacing
- Selective surfacing techniques
- Auto Surfacing workflows
- Combining parametric and surface modelling
- Choosing the most appropriate reverse-engineering method
- Advanced accuracy checking
- Practical complex-part exercise
What you leave able to do
In addition to the core mechanical reverse-engineering workflows covered during Days 1 and 2, attendees will learn how to approach complex, organic and freeform components using Design X's advanced surfacing tools.
How it works
Two places to run it
At our Whitchurch facility, where the machines, software and sample parts are already set up — or at your site, on your own hardware, parts and network. The price differs; the course does not.
Three people included
The price covers up to three attendees. Bigger groups are fine — tell us the number and we will price it.
Bring your own parts
The exercises work on our sample data, but they work far better on yours. Send a part or a dataset ahead of the day and we will build the practical around it.
What it goes with
Shorter course
Geomagic Design X Essentials (2 days)
Core training for mechanical scan-to-CAD and parametric reverse engineering — scan data in, an editable, validated CAD model out.

Courses run to a date we agree with you rather than a fixed calendar, so this is an enquiry rather than a checkout. Tell us where and roughly when and we will come back with dates — usually the same working day.
