Mesh
Meshing is to convert the point cloud into a triangular mesh surface. The data after mesh can be directly used for rendering, measurement or printing.
Mesh type¶
| Icon | Function | Instruction | 
|---|---|---|
|  | Unwatertight | Unclosed model stays the way it is scanned. Processing time is quicker than Watertight. | 
|  | Half watertight | Some of the holes will be filled automatically. | 
|  | Watertight | All holes will be filled automatically. The data can directly be 3D printed. | 
Mesh optimization¶
| Optimization | Instruction | Note | 
|---|---|---|
| Filter | Optimize the data and improve the clarity of the data. The higher the level, the less the small details .  | - None: No optimization - Low: Optimizes data slightly and preserves data characteristics - Med: Reduce the noise on the surface of the scan data - High: Reduce the noise on the surface of the scan data and sharpen it powerfully. | 
| Smooth | Smooth the possible noise on the surface of the scan data.  | |
| Remove small floating parts | Remove small floating parts on the model.  | |
| Simplification | Select to reduce the polygon numbers, file size and detail of data while meshing.  | - Resolution <= 0.5mm, simplification will be selected by default. - Resolution > 0.5mm, simplification will be deselected by default. | 
| Max triangles | Set max plate number to get mesh model’s triangle plate number is within configured plate number.  | |
| Fill small hole | Auto fill the small hole when mesh.  | Default value 10mm, for objects with holes (smaller than 10 mm), please set the function parameter value to a smaller one. | 
| Remove spike | Remove spike-like data on the image edge.  | |
| Marker hole fill | Fill in the surface of the object that is not scanned to the pasting marker. | 
Click Apply to confirm the settings and start meshing, you can click  to restore or click Confirm to confirm the mesh result. Click Cancel to restore and exit the function.
