Sheffield, UK | November 11th, 2024 - MachineWorks Ltd will be displaying a preview of the latest release of Polygonica, the renowned component software for polygon-mesh processing, at Formnext 2024 in Frankfurt next week.
Key features being released in Polygonica 3.4 include:
- Seamless UV parameterisation
- Smoothing of ragged boundaries typical of laser scan data
- Feature detection of embossed and engraved labels
- Recreate a mesh solid from a set of dense slices
- Improvements to registration and alignment including a new fine tune mode
- Extend a surface at an angle to a plane, for dental crown border modelling
- Subtract and intersect 3D curves with polygon mesh bodies
- A new option to preserve large planar regions during mesh decimation
- Improved handling of embossing across sharp edges, suitable for imprinting texture patterns onto a mesh surface
Polygonica 3.4 is targeted for release in December 2024.
