ASCII point cloud best fit

[[Go...]]

Hello

I have point cloud from CMM inspection as ASCII (.txt) file.

How to best fit those points to the CAD after importing? Is there a way? What is the proper work process?

Also how can I re-align the CAD to different position in space? 

Is there a way to polygonise this type of point cloud?

Thank you in advance

Do you have only actuals or nominals also?

If you want to import measured data, you have to do it in same alignment as you captured them.

I don't think you can polygonize them, but maybe i am wrong about that.

In Inspect you don't move CAD model. You only modify mesh to fit alignment.
If you need to alternate CAD model before making elements, then go to menu Operations -> Alignment -> something single and select translate or rotate.
You have to enter old point and new point. You wil have to play with it a little to learn how it works.
