Bring in any scan.
Point clouds and meshes from the scanner you already own, plus the CAD model they should match.
- E57, PLY, STL and OBJ scans
- STEP and IGES CAD
- Tens of millions of points stay responsive
- Several scans in one project
Raw scan to
signed-off report.
3D inspection software for scan data from any scanner. Clean the mesh, compare to CAD, check GD&T and export the report, then let Python repeat it for every part.

Step 1 of 5
Step 2 of 5
Fix the mesh first.
Get the data fit to measure without a second program.
- Remove noise and outliers
- Fill holes
- Smooth and decimate
- Trim away fixtures and background
Step 3 of 5
Put it on the drawing.
Align the scan to CAD the way the part is datumed.
- Best-fit alignment
- Datum and feature-based alignment
- Lock degrees of freedom
- Re-align without redoing the inspection
Step 4 of 5
See every deviation.
Surface comparison and feature checks against tolerance.
- Deviation colour maps
- Sections and labelled points
- Fitted planes, cylinders and spheres
- GD&T: form, orientation, position

Step 5 of 5
Hand over the verdict.
A template you build once fills itself in for every part.
- Saved views and callouts
- Pass/fail tables
- Traceable footer on every page
- Export to PDF

Why TrueForm3D
01
Scanner-neutral
Data from the structured-light, laser or CT system you already use.
02
Handles big scans
Native code and GPU rendering stay responsive with tens of millions of points.
03
Repeatable by design
Deterministic results with a provenance record on every report.
04
One program
Mesh cleanup, inspection and reporting without exporting between tools.
Questions
Which scanners does it work with?
Any that exports E57, PLY, STL or OBJ. TrueForm3D reads the file, not the scanner.
Do I need to know Python?
No. Everything runs from the interface. Python is there when you want to repeat a job across many parts.
Can I try it on my own parts?
Yes. The [trial length] trial is the full program, including scripting and PDF export.
What does it cost after the trial?
[YOUR PRICE]. [Licence terms: per seat, per year, etc.]
