SOLIDWORKS Tutorial - SOLIDWORKS and Scan Data

[@nobodyimportant7380]

Great video, I have been using solidworks since 2006, reverse engineering mechanically since 2010 and working from scan data since 2012, the software keeps changing, for the better and worse. This was a fantastic introduction of what can be achieved using scan data without the specific and costly addon, honestly the addon doesn't really make it easier faster of better. I especially like they way you showed difference approaches to achieve your goals, it shows very well there isn't a right or wrong way, but many different approaches to solve the problem.

I find the videos on this channel so easy to follow. I have been using SolidWorks for about 10 years and I am still learning so much from you guys. Thanks.

We are so glad they are helpful for you Please let us know if there are any topics you want to see covered.

[@fissavids8767]

as an advanced solidworks user who's new to scanning, this was extremely clear and helpful

[@Todestelzer]

That was the best tutorial for 3d scan to solid I watched so far. And I watched a lot. Thanks for making this content and help other people with it!

[@blooper68]

same. best ive watched.

[@davids9027]

Thank you for creating a clear, professional looking and sounding tutorial video. as a beginner in SOLIDWORKS I am having to deal with a similar situation. Your information should help me work with this.

@goengineer 3 months of sold works experience and now i feel like i have 10 years. this is really helpful.

Interesting range of tools, nice work

[@AshrafulRahaman193]

It's helpful. Thank you.

Great video. Be nice if you could provide a link to download the .stl you used to follow along with.

Excellent video! One question, how do I rotate the graphic file once it's imported? My planes are all over the place

[@goengineer]

There are a couple things you can try kzbin.info/www/bejne/eWKXoqWdh8plgKc

[@brandonz2]

@@goengineer That's the trick! Thanks! I've been using SolidWorks for far too long to not know that!🤦‍♂😅

[@AshishAshish-hs8sq]

thanks for creating the video.

[@hcanergocmus]

Thanks for the video. which scanning method and scanner were used for this graphic body?

[@fernandoarosa]

It's possible to Solidworks 2017? I haven't mesh modeling tab...

[@goengineer]

The tools specifically demonstrated in this video are new to 2020, and the mesh bodies tools where new in 2018. SO you will need to upgrade to a newer version to access this kind of functionality.

[@musabakmal1134]

Hi, I can't seem to find the 'Mesh Modelling' tab anywhere in Solidworks 2018. Can someone please help?

[@goengineer]

Hi! Unfortunately, the Mesh Modeling tab was new in SOLIDWORKS 2019, so you won't find the tab in the previous versions.

[@musabakmal1134]

@@goengineer Thank you so much, your comment has finally ended my wild goose chase XD

[@Catbert814]

I'm running SW2020 and "Surface From Mesh" fails nomatter what I do. Lower the tolerance, bigger paintbrush, paint a larger area.

[@tommynordin2484]

Did you ever get it to work? I’m having the same problem.

[@ugurisklar3442]

more this kind of videos pls

[@RaviKumardaredevilz]

How can we see scan data in assembly mode? May be GoEngineer try to solve this. Working with scans is meaningless when you try to assemble with other components and see the scan data there.

[@GetLowRacingOfficial]

You can import the scan data in a part file as a graphics body and then insert that in an assembly

[@nahinjuarez9689]

great!!!!
