Hexagon states that REcreate has also been rigorously tested with its production software tools that are used to plan, optimise, and program machining processes. Those using Hexagon’s portable arms for inspection, for example, should be able to reduce training needs by allowing any operator to read inspection data directly from the device to reverse engineer using a single solution. While designed to be interoperable and slot into a customer’s existing processes, the solution offers additional features to customers that use other Hexagon technologies in their workflow. Hexagon Recreate aims to simplify an streamline jobs, such as mesh alignment between CAD models and 3D scanned part data Bayer AG Digitalizes P&IDs and 3D Models with Hexagon Solutions.

Recreate also features a set of analysis tools to enable manufacturing professionals to interrogate the 3D models and validate whether they are manufacturable before exporting as CAD or STL for CAM or additive manufacturing processes. After evaluating CADWorx Plant Professional and other industry solutions, KEYNES found that Hexagons software offered the best user-friendliness and flexibility for design changes. The user is able to prepare CAD models and drawings from any point cloud data, with a CAD tool suite enabling 2D engineering drawings as well as 3D CAD. Hexagon has designed Recreate with the goal of removing complexity from the process, with the new software providing a single working environment from scan through to manufacturable CAD model. Hexagon has unveiled Recreate, a new software solution designed from the ground up to make it easier and faster to reverse engineer parts from metrology scan to manufacturable model.
