Mesh editing¶

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 parameter¶

Choose different mesh types according to the reality¹.

Icon	Name	Description
	Unwatertight model	For models with unclosed holes, use this mesh type to keep the original state with less meshing time.
	Semi-watertight Model	To fill the holes automatically.
	Watertight model	To fill all holes automatically. The data can be 3D printed directly. Only watertight model can set the mesh quality.

Filter

Optimize the data and improve the clarity of the data. The higher the level, the less the small details.
- None: No optimization.
- Standard: 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(IR Mode)

Smooth the possible noise on the surface of the scan data.

Simplification(IR Mode)

The polygon numbers and detail of data will be reduced universally. When the number of the simplification is more than the number of max triangles you have set, the simplification will be applied.

Remove small floating parts

Remove small floating parts on the model.

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 with a perimeter less than or equal to 10 mm (by default). You can set the hole-filling perimeter.

Remove spike

Remove spike-like data on the image edge.

Markers hole filling

Fill the surface holes on an object that were not scanned due to being occluded by markers.

Recommended parameters

When turning on, it will automatically use the recommended parameters for meshing.
