Revo Design Pro, professional CAD and reverse engineering software

Revo Design Pro is professional computer-aided design (CAD) software designed to transform data from 3D scanning into usable models for reverse engineering, industrial design and product development.

Powered by QUICKSURFACE, Revo Design Pro provides a complete environment for importing, cleaning, analysing and modifying 3D meshes, then reconstructing surfaces and CAD models using advanced modelling tools. It therefore fits into a complete Scan-to-CAD workflow, from scanning the part to using the resulting model in CAD/CAM software.

Thanks to its professional features for parametric modelling, free-form design and solid editing, Revo Design Pro is particularly suited to complex reverse engineering projects, industrial design, automotive part modification and applications requiring detailed CAD reconstruction.

Key features of Revo Design Pro

Importing and preparing scan data

Revo Design Pro allows scan data to be imported as STL, OBJ or PLY meshes. The software supports meshes of different sizes and provides numerous tools for preparing data before converting it into CAD models.

Polygon reduction, smoothing, remeshing, outlier removal and hole filling make it possible to clean and optimise meshes before continuing with the design process.

Automatic mesh segmentation

Revo Design Pro includes an automatic mesh segmentation function that makes it easier to identify and separate different areas of a scanned model.

This feature simplifies data preparation and speeds up the reconstruction process when a mesh contains multiple distinct surfaces or geometric shapes.

Converting scans into CAD models

The software transforms scan data into parametric or free-form CAD surfaces. Users can reconstruct complex shapes from the mesh and adapt them to the requirements of each project.

The modelling tools allow users to extrude or revolve surfaces, create sections, generate 2D and 3D entities and perform precise reconstruction operations based on scanned data.

Importing existing CAD files

Unlike the standard version, Revo Design Pro also allows CAD files in IGES or STEP format to be imported.

This feature makes it possible to combine data from 3D scanning with existing CAD models in order to modify a part, complete a design or integrate different data sources into the same project.

Advanced solid modelling

Revo Design Pro includes advanced tools for solid modelling and editing. Users can split solids and perform Boolean operations such as cutting, combining or intersecting.

Linear and circular pattern functions, together with mirroring, also make it possible to quickly reproduce geometric features and simplify the design of complex parts.

Fillets, chamfers and complex geometries

The software provides dedicated tools for finishing and modifying CAD models, including the creation of fillets, chamfers and variable-radius fillets.

Revo Design Pro also makes it possible to work with helices, thickened surfaces and flattening functions to meet more advanced design requirements.

Advanced free-form modelling

For organic shapes and complex geometries, Revo Design Pro provides free-form modelling tools for accurately reconstructing and modifying surfaces.

The automatic feature-based free-form function makes it easier to reconstruct surfaces based on the existing characteristics of the scanned model.

Model analysis and inspection

Revo Design Pro includes several tools for checking model geometry and comparing CAD data with scan data.

Deviation analysis makes it possible to visualise differences between models and assess reconstruction quality. The software also provides draft analysis and straightness analysis for applications requiring more advanced geometric inspection.

Alignment and primitive extraction

Revo Design Pro can extract geometric primitives such as planes, cylinders, cones, spheres and symmetry planes from scan data.

These elements can be used to accurately position models within the coordinate system or perform multi-point alignments. The software also supports fine global alignment of multiple meshes.

Exporting to CAD/CAM software

Once the reconstruction work is complete, Revo Design Pro allows users to export models in standard CAD formats, including IGES, STEP and Parasolid.

The files can then be used in other CAD/CAM software to continue the design process, prepare manufacturing or integrate the model into an existing industrial workflow.

Other Revo Design Pro features

• Automatic mesh segmentation: Automatically identify and separate different areas of a mesh to speed up reconstruction.
• Surface filling: Create surfaces to complete specific areas of a model and continue CAD reconstruction.
• CAD import: Import IGES and STEP files to combine existing models with your scan data.
• Boolean operations: Cut, combine or intersect solids to create complex geometries.
• Linear and circular patterns: Quickly reproduce features according to a defined pattern.
• Solid mirroring: Create symmetrical geometry from an existing model.
• Fillets and chamfers: Add or modify geometric finishing features directly on CAD models.
• Variable-radius fillets: Create more complex transitions with variable radii.
• Helix: Create helical geometries for specific design requirements.
• Free-form surface thickening: Transform surfaces into geometries with thickness for easier use.
• Automatic free-form: Automatically reconstruct free-form surfaces based on the characteristics of the model.
• Draft analysis: Analyse part angles to identify areas suitable for manufacturing processes requiring draft angles.
• Straightness analysis: Check the straightness of specific geometries to improve the accuracy of the final model.

A complete workflow from scanning to CAD

Revo Design Pro is part of a complete 3D scanning-to-CAD workflow. Data captured with a 3D scanner can be imported into the software, cleaned, aligned and analysed before being used as a reference to reconstruct a CAD model.

This approach is particularly suitable for reverse engineering: scanning an existing part, preparing the mesh, extracting geometric features, reconstructing surfaces and modifying the model before exporting it to design or manufacturing software.

Revo Design Pro for reverse engineering and industrial design

With its advanced modelling tools, Revo Design Pro meets the needs of professionals working with complex parts, industrial products or reconstruction projects based on existing parts.

It can be used for reverse engineering, product design and modification, automotive part reconstruction, creating models from sculptures or existing objects, and projects requiring a combination of scan and CAD data.
