Focus Reverse Engineering
The new standard for reverse engineering

Focus Reverse Engineering provides next generation functionality and workflow enhancements for the design, evaluation, manufacturing and analysis of free-form parts and products.
Focus Reverse Engineering’s unique multi-format modeling with “intelligent automation” provides users with best-of-class polygonal and surface/solid tools. Using this fully associative approach, designers are free to evaluate and modify at any stage, in the format of choice (polygons, curves and surfaces).

Metris Reverse Engineering software is rewarded with an academy award as a solution for streamlining the creation of 3D computer graphics models allowing artists to convert the scanned physical models & artists into CAD-models & digital personages.

Key features

  • Integrated on Focus platform: same look and feel as Focus Inspection
  • Creation of curves and surfaces over missing or incomplete data
  • Automated curve, curve network, and surface creation
  • Dynamic templates (mesh, curves, surfaces) for model re-use
  • Advanced feature detection tools
  • Real-time update of mesh, curves or surfaces when modifying
  • 10x faster meshing and rendering
  • Mesh, curve, and surface-based design, analysis, and sculpting tools
  • Parting line, undercut removal, and shelling tools
  • Create/query solid tools
  • Format compatibility:
    • Point cloud import: ASCII, STL, IGES
    • Mesh import/ export: STL, OBJ
    • CAD Output: IGES, OBJ, ACIS

Key benefits

  • Easy to learn and use (days, not months)
  • Rapid, yet accurate results (hours, not weeks) 
  • Flexible control from fully automated to precise, interactive refinement 
  • Scales from entry level skills to the most demanding applications 
  • Dramatic time and cost savings through workflow and knowledge re-use 
  • Seamless compatibility with industry-standard CAD/CAM/CAE applications
