FEATURES · ALPHA BUILD

Everything in the toolkit.

Modify, select, reverse engineer, inspect and repair, in one desktop app. This is what's in the alpha today, taken straight from the build.

01 · MODIFY

Shape the mesh like a part.

Every modify tool previews first, works on the part you have selected, and applies as one undoable step. The heavy ones run on every core and give the same result on any machine.

Thicken

Turns an open scan into a closed solid of a set wall thickness, offsetting along smoothed normals so the scan's detail is kept.

  • Centered, outward or inward
  • Cut-away lens preview
  • Self-intersections merged

Wrap

Builds a closed, manifold envelope around imperfect or open geometry. The original mesh stays; Wrap adds a new body beside it.

  • Cell size and thickness
  • Per part or merged
  • Closes narrow gaps

Reduce

Lowers the triangle count to a target, keeping open and sharp edges exactly on their lines.

  • Triangle % or count
  • Max deviation in mm
  • Live lens shows the exact result

Remesh

Rebuilds the mesh with even, near-equilateral triangles, or cleans it up step by step.

  • Uniform edge length
  • Keeps creases and open edges
  • Clean up: short edges, slivers, smoothing

Clip

Keeps the part of a mesh on one side of a plane.

  • XY, YZ, ZX or a picked face
  • Exact on STEP parts

Cut

Subtracts a tool volume from a part.

  • Box or cylinder
  • Another part as the cutter
  • Exact on STEP parts

02 · SELECT

Select like CAD, not like a triangle editor.

Select first, then run a command. One selection is shared by Repair, Rapid Surface, Fit and the modify tools.

Selection modes

Pick exactly the region you mean on the current part.

  • Part
  • Shell
  • Triangle
  • Brush
  • Plane
  • Surface
  • Lasso

Plane and Surface

One click grows a selection across a flat face or a smooth region, within a tolerance you set.

  • Plane tolerance in mm
  • Surface angle in degrees
  • Ctrl to select through

Smooth selection

Replaces a staircase outline with a smooth curve by cutting the mesh along it, ready to delete, separate or surface.

  • Radius in mm
  • Click again to smooth further

03 · REVERSE ENGINEER

From scan to surfaces you can use in CAD.

Fit real geometry to the mesh, check how close it is, and export STEP. Surfaces are added to the part, so the scan stays alongside for comparison.

Rapid Surface

Fits NURBS faces to the whole mesh or a selected area and adds them as a surface body on the part.

  • Super rapid: even patch grid
  • Rapid surfacing: large smooth regions
  • Deviation preview before Apply

Fit

Best-fit planes and cylinders from brushed mesh samples or an imported point cloud. Accept creates a new part you can measure and section.

  • Plane
  • Cylinder
  • Residual stats
  • XYZ and PLY clouds

STEP in and out

Open STEP assemblies as a part tree with each solid on its own, and export fitted surfaces back to STEP.

  • Instance names kept
  • Units converted to mm
  • Combined or separate files

04 · INSPECT

Know how close you are, in millimeters.

Measurements and analyses live under each part in the tree, can be renamed, hidden and undone, and save with the project.

Compare

A false-color deviation map between any two meshes or surfaces, with a legend and summary statistics.

  • Absolute or signed
  • Tolerance band
  • Mesh or surface, any pair

Measure

Measures on meshes and exact surfaces. Every completed measurement is kept under the part.

  • Point to point
  • Edge length
  • Radius and diameter
  • Face area
  • Edge to edge
  • X/Y/Z axis lock

Section

A plane through the part with the exact section curves of the STEP surfaces and a live cut-away view.

  • XY, YZ, ZX or a picked face
  • Exact curves
  • Live drag

Quality and Health

Color-map triangle quality, or get a counts-only health report of everything wrong with a mesh.

  • Skewness
  • Shortest edge
  • Problem counts

05 · REPAIR

Clean up what you're given.

Imported meshes often arrive with problems. Repair finds them, shows each one on the model and clears them before you start work.

Repair wizard

Diagnoses the mesh, lists each kind of problem with a count, and fixes them one at a time or all at once with Auto-fix.

  • Inverted normals
  • Bad edges
  • Holes
  • Noise shells
  • Duplicate and degenerate triangles
  • Self-intersections

Fill Hole

Pick a hole, optionally grow the rim back to cut away ragged edges, and fill it with a live preview.

  • Grow in mm
  • Auto, Flat or Freeform
  • Coarse to dense patches

Always-on cues

Open and non-manifold edges are always drawn, and the backs of triangles are tinted so flipped or open areas stand out.

  • Bad edges highlighted
  • Red backfaces

FILES AND PLATFORMS

Works with what you already have.

A native desktop app for Windows, macOS and Linux. Work in millimeters or inches, undo every change, and save projects with their analyses and measurements.
