IGES Export

Iges export provides a compatible file with 3D entities, which you can open in most CAD/CAM programs. These features represent the actual measured features in your part inspection program.

When you have completed the measurement of features, select from the pull down menus:

[File->Export->Iges].

You will be prompted to enter a file name and location and Geomet will display a progress dialog, which will update as each Iges feature is created.

On long inspections, such as scanned data point clouds, the writing of the file can be lengthy. For example, A typical data point cloud of 28,000 points takes an average of 2:09 minutes!

With this release, Geomet exports the following entities:
