About this course
Course overview
Built for engineers who already ship scan-to-CAD work and want to handle the hardest cases: legacy aerospace parts with no drawings, organic consumer products, and worn parts that need design-intent restoration. We cover hybrid modeling, accuracy validation, and workflow automation.
Curriculum
What you'll cover
Hybrid Modeling Strategies
Combining primitives, lofted surfaces, and parametric features in a single editable tree.
Design Intent Restoration
Recovering original tolerances, symmetries, and constraints from worn or distorted parts.
Class-A Surface Modeling
Curvature-continuous freeform surfaces for consumer and automotive products.
Accuracy & Deviation Analysis
Validating CAD against scans, generating deviation maps, and producing audit reports.
Outcomes
By the end you'll be able to
- Reverse engineer parts with no original drawings or documentation
- Produce class-A surface models suitable for consumer products
- Validate CAD accuracy against scan data with full traceability
- Automate repetitive Design X tasks with the macro engine
Who it's for
- • Senior CAD engineers
- • Reverse engineering specialists
- • Aerospace and automotive R&D teams
Prerequisites
- • Completed Design X Fundamentals or 6+ months of hands-on experience
- • Comfortable with parametric CAD
