Geomagic Design X is the industry-leading Scan to CAD software for reverse engineering physical parts into digital parametric CAD models. Combine history-based CAD with 3D scan data processing.

The Ultimate Scan to CAD Solution

Geomagic Design X sets the gold standard for 3D reverse engineering software. What if you could get an entry-level version of this Scan to CAD software at a more affordable price? Meet the new Geomagic Design X. There are three plans to choose from: Go, Plus, and Pro. Instead of designing from scratch, you can use 3D meshes of real-world objects as a starting point for your new design. With this Scan to CAD software, you can create feature-based, editable solid models with a history tree that is compatible with your existing CAD software.

What Can You Do with Geomagic Design X?

Real world object to parametric CAD model
  • CAD File

    Create missing CAD files of existing parts without hassle. This is especially important when you need to create CAD models in volume.

  • Extract design intent

    Extract design intent of existing objects that would be difficult to do in any other way.

  • 3D Scanning

    When you combine 3D scanning with Design X, you get accurate full data capture of real world objects faster compared to using calipers or CMMs.

Scan virtually anything and create manufacturing-ready designs with Geomagic Design X reverse engineering software:

  • Rebuild CAD data for legacy parts and tooling
  • Design new custom products that fit in, on, or around existing ones
  • Document changes made post-prototype or manufacture
  • Recreate non-existent or lost CAD data for parts and molds
  • Convert physical parts into CAD for new product designs

Complements Your Entire Design Ecosystem

Live Transfer feature allows seamless live data exchange to multiple CAD applications for including:
  • Solidworks
  • Creo
  • Pro Engineering
  • Autocad
  • Inventor
  • Solid Edge
  • NX

Live Transfer is one of the most powerful features in the reverse engineering software. Once you completed your solid model in Geomagic Design X, the Live Transfer command transfers whole or partial data to target CAD systems in real-time.

Each feature is transferred instantaneously, which yields a parametric model with complete editable feature history in your CAD software as though you created it there originally. The software transfers native CAD data that you can use the same way as any other CAD model—except that it accurately represents a scanned object.

Why Use Geomagic Design X?

Geomagic Design X makes it easy to create editable, feature-based CAD models and integrate them into your existing engineering design workflow. Create manufacturing-ready CAD models directly from scan data in the fastest way possible.
