3D Systems Announces Geomagic Capture: First Integrated Scan-Based Design and Inspection Solutions

3D Systems today announced the availability of Geomagic Capture®, a family of powerful, integrated desktop scanner and software tools for professional scan-based design and quality inspection ranging in price from $14,900 to $24,900. The company plans to exhibit its entire Geomagic Capture family December 3-6 at EuroMold 2013 in Frankfurt, Germany, and commence commercial shipments the same week.

Geomagic Capture is available in six configurations, and each package includes a compact, ultra-precise, blue light LED scanner directly integrated with Geomagic software including:

  • Geomagic Capture for SolidWorks®
  • Geomagic Capture for SpaceClaim®
  • Geomagic Capture for Design X
  • Geomagic Capture for Design Direct
  • Geomagic Capture for Control
  • Geomagic Capture for Verify

Using Geomagic Capture, designers and engineers can for the first time instantly incorporate real world objects into CAD at their desktop. Using easy and intuitive software with direct CAD plugins Geomagic Capture compresses design time, increases productivity and delivers significantly faster product development cycles. Geomagic Capture packages address a variety of applications including precision desktop scanning and integrated high-quality inspection software with pushbutton workflow and automated reporting. Geomagic Capture packages are the most affordable in their class making them accessible to broader audiences that until now could not afford high quality desktop scanning and lab metrology inspection solutions.

“The introduction of Geomagic Capture is a significant step on the road to fulfill our commitment to reimagine the engineer’s desktop with cutting edge design, scan and inspect tools,” said Calvin Hur, Vice President and General Manager Geomagic Solutions, 3D Systems. “With its unprecedented performance and affordability, Geomagic Capture ushers in a new era of design-to-manufacturing productivity and utility.”

Geomagic Capture is available for pre-order worldwide and will commence commercial shipment in early December 2013.
