So I came across a Part without a CAD model, made a pointcloud, exported it out as IGES. and when I try to import it into Solidworks or even back into PC-DMIS, it is grossly slow, and sometimes when the pointcloud is huge it won't even load. Wondering if there is a trick or if you can down size it, or maybe there is a trick to exporting the pointcloud so one could create an actual good model in Solidworks or other product, that might be friendly. I have created Mesh and exported them out as STL, but these are sloppy and not as friendly, but they do load a lot easier. Any tid bits anyone have to offer?
neil.challinor perhaps?
One way of getting less size, but good coverage is to filter the point cloud using a set distance between points. I believe the default distance in PC-DMIS distance filter is set to 0.4 mm, which has been working pretty well for me.
