Quickly and accurately compare measured shell data (actual) with CAD models (nominal) or mathematically generated meshes.
Note: This module includes all functionalities of the Shell Extension and Shell Topography Modules.
⇒ Load actual and nominal data – import measured freeform surface data and compare it with CAD design models or meshes generated from processes such as additive manufacturing.
⇒ Pre-alignment tools – align datasets automatically or manually by selecting matching points—particularly useful when working with partial measurements.
⇒ Refine alignment with algorithmic fitting – let the software optimize the alignment to ensure the best possible match between datasets.
⇒ Visualize deviations – compute and display surface deviations using customizable color scales in the 3D view for clear, intuitive interpretation.
⇒ Generate result shells and deviation maps – create output models and use them for further visualization or in-depth surface texture analysis using additional Mountains® tools.
