SolidWorks (Concord, MA) 2007 Office Premium users can now use the Roland (Lake Forest, CA) LPX-600 3D laser scanner to capture detailed models.

"The tedious CAD editing process is now a thing of the past for SolidWorks users," said Pedro Gonzalez, Roland ASD 3D applications engineer. "For less than $12,000, they can use the LPX-600 to automatically scan complex organic shapes."

The LPX-600 scans objects up to 16 inches tall and 10 inches in diameter. The desktop device then generates detailed models with a watertight surface and resolutions up to 0.008 inches.  

The Bundled LPX EZ Studio reverse engineering software fills holes, scans, aligns, and merges planes of 3D models that can be used directly in SolidWorks 2007 Office Premium. LPX EZ Studio supports a range of data output formats, including STL, PIX, and 3DM.
