Transform Your 3D Scans: From Complex Mesh to Smooth Solid Model in Autodesk Fusion

Watch how we convert a 1.2-million-facet scan file into a fully manufacturable solid model.

If you’re dealing with 3D scan data, reverse engineering, or additive manufacturing, you’ve likely encountered the frustration of overly dense mesh files that can slow down Autodesk Fusion.

In our demo video, our Autodesk Fusion specialist, Fred Van Der Merwe will guide you through the essential process of optimising your mesh files. You’ll learn how to check mesh health, effectively reduce facet counts without compromising detail, correct common scale issues, and convert your mesh into a solid model ready for parametric modelling and 3D printing.

What You’ll Learn:

  • How to assess a mesh file’s health and evaluate its facet count before beginning work
  • Techniques for reducing complexity in two phases, granting you greater control over detail retention
  • Solutions to fix the typical 10:1 scaling issue found in scanned STL files
  • Steps to convert mesh files into solid models and utilise standard Autodesk Fusion modelling tools
  • Best practices for exporting your designs for 3D printing or directly into Fusion’s Manufacturing workspace
