FARO® RELEASES REVENG™
SOFTWARE 2021
“Reverse engineering with RevEng is easier and faster than ever,” said John Chan, FARO Software Product Marketing Manager. “Users can scan with a FARO ScanArm—paired with the optional 8-axis rotating platform to increase acquisition speed—to generate a mesh of the highest quality and quickly produce exportable CAD surfaces for machining, finite element analysis simulations or 3D modeling.” Users can also import point cloud or mesh files from any source and repair the mesh with RevEng state-ofthe-art optimization tools, automatically repairing meshes up to 20X faster than current leading tools and improving smoothing effectiveness up to 1.5X faster. Features New Auto-Surfacing Capabilities for Creating This makes RevEng software agnostic and can be paired with any inspection program—even for cusFast, High-Quality CAD Surfaces tomers working with other software products.
