Abstract

Products with complex geometries have become widely prevalent due to the application of modern technologies in their manufacturing process. Often, the production process of such products begins with data obtained from 3D scanning. Following this, a CAD model is created, which is not always straightforward for products with complex geometries. This paper describes the process of obtaining a CAD model of a magnetic plate for a dental articulator. By scanning with the ZScanner® 700 laser scanner, a point cloud was generated, which was transformed into a polygon mesh model using Geomagic Studio software. By importing the polygon mesh model into the Geomagic Design X software package, the conversion from surface to solid model was performed. The final model was produced using 3D printing technology.

Keywords:3D technologies, reverse engineering, 3D scanning, additive manufacturing.
