[QUOTE="Theo T, post: 295137, member: 21089"] I work for an Ortho lab, where 95% of our digital workflow is adding bases to scans, removing brackets, engraving an ID on the bottom of the models, then printing. Right now we're using 3Shape OrthoAnalyzer and Netfabb, but I'm looking for alternatives, specifically outside dental/ortho-specific software, that could accomplish the same thing. I tried a demo of Geomagic Wrap that was pretty promising, but adding a base to a scan using anything other than straight extrusion was a challenge. Meshmixer would be great, if it didn't crash on 3/4 attempts to do anything substantial with the triangle counts that a full-palate scan has. Just curious if anyone here has had any success with other software (other than 3shape/exocad) for creating models, I'm having a hard time finding other softwares that handle organic meshes well! Thanks! [MEDIA=imgur]34QkU94[/MEDIA] [/QUOTE]
