Polyworks 3D scan to CAD

Hey guys. Have you all used a 3d scanner to create cad files? We have a romer arm with polyworks. We would like to scan some end of arm tools here and convert the pointcloud into a useable CAD file that we can 3D print.

Have you all done anything like this and how did it turn out? any advice? software suggestions? Tips and Tricks? Is it worth the time and effort?

We spend 4k on each of the parts we want to replace and this method could potentially save us tons of money.

    My new job that I am starting in a week has a Romer arm with polyworks. I dont know much about polyworks so I am excited to play around with it but I will definitely need some advice.

    Also, there may be another forum not on this site that is better for Polyworks questions.
