Geometry Repair

TransMagic offers sophisticated tools that fix geometry problems before translating a file. This simple repair system works automatically to stitch loose surfaces (faces) together in IGES files. Advanced repair tools can close gaps in geometry to create “water-tight” solid models, fix complex geometry problems or replace missing surfaces.


Automatic Geometry Repair can help you do your job

  • Saves hours of manual rework to make CAD files usable
  • Stitch models into ‘solid’ models
  • Close gaps that prevent getting mass properties or a solid model
  • Fast turn-around on job quotes
  • Reduce operating cost by eliminating wasted time
  • Increase profitability on projects

 


TransMagic Lite/Full Repair

TransMagic provides a geometry repair toolkit that streamlines the time consuming tasks of manually reworking 3D models for manufacturing. Lite and Full Repair, included in every TransMagic product, will:

  • Stitch together surfaces to create a solid model
  • Correctly re-orient surface normals
  • Simplify 3D geometry into analytic forms
  • Optimize model for efficient use in downstream applications
  • Create "water-tight" solid model
  • Precisely re-intersect surfaces
  • Repair geometric errors for higher precision

 


MagicSURFACE by TransMagic

MagicSURFACE is an advanced geometry repair toolkit that is invaluable to CAD users who need "water-tight" solid models.

MagicSURFACE can:

  • Rapidly find holes in 3D models
  • Expertly cover holes with continuous curvature surfaces
  • Replace poorly constructed surfaces

Collaboration and Visualization

A rich set of features makes TransMagic a robust solution for viewing native 3D files without a seat of CAD software. Quickly and easily view sections, add transparency to parts and manipulate views of large assembly models. TransMagic offers live collaboration between users over the Internet. The most complex models can be converted into lightweight 3D HTML files that can be opened and viewed in any Internet browser.


Collaboration

TransMagic allows the reuse of 3D data in any application without having to buy a new CAD system, recreate it or spend hours of precious time re-engineering work that was already done.

  • Collaborate with your partners, team members, vendors and clients
  • Share, review and manipulate 3D models, live over the Internet
  • View, Red-line and Chat during design reviews and project discussions
  • Manipulate multiple product views of product features, complex assemblies, cross sections mass properties and more
  • Leverage the convenience of 3D HTML files to view designs in any Internet browser

 


Visualization

TransMagic visualization features include:

  • View a wide range of standard 3D formats plus CATIA, UG, NX, SolidWorks, Inventor and Pro/ENGINEER
  • No seat of CAD software is required.
  • Quickly manipulate views of large assemblies
  • Support for assemblies with thousands of parts
  • Cross-section viewing
  • Shaded, transparency and wire-frame modes
  • Hide or delete unwanted parts
  • Quickly create new models of selected parts, such as motor mounts or bounding box
  • Export desired parts or sub assemblies
  • Create model views for use on websites or in technical illustrations
  • Combine parts from different CAD systems to form new assemblies

Mass Properties and Quoting Tools

TransMagic has excellent job quoting capabilities for tool and mold makers with features to calculate mass properties, create bounding boxes and take measurements. Material properties can easily be used to calculate material cost for quotes.


Mass Properties

TransMagic can calculate mass properties to help companies prepare job quotes for injection-molded parts. If you know your material properties you can calculate material cost for quotes.

 


Moments of Inertia

Moments of inertia are calculated along with other mass properties. This information can be copied and pasted into other applications such as Excel or Word.

 


Center of Mass

Three construction planes display the exact center of mass. This information can be exported to downstream analysis, simulation or other software systems.

 


Bounding Box

The bounding box can determine the size of a selected part and display a graphic element showing the dimensions for stock size.

 


Measurement

A single button click turns on the measurement tool. Click anywhere on the part or the bounding box and drag the mouse to measure between two points.

 


Scale Part

To change the size of a part just click the Scale Part button, enter a scale factor, and the part will be re-sized accordingly. The Scale Part and Bounding Box tools provide useful information for determining mold size requirements. Both uniform and non-uniform scaling are available.

 


Units of Measure

Select the desired units of measurement in English or Metric. TransMagic will read existing file units and convert them automatically to the user's selected units.
