Artec Studio 20

Features Artec Studio 20 is designed for working with 3D data, from acquiring and importing scans to preparing models for further use. The software combines registration, alignment, surface reconstruction, mesh editing, and texture processing. Users can process data step by step and check results at each stage.

Features include: - aligning scans and refining their relative positions; - creating and optimizing polygonal models; - cleaning surfaces, filling holes, and processing textures; - taking measurements and preparing CAD objects; - creating models from photos and videos using AI Photogrammetry.

Configurable Workflows let users combine processing operations into repeatable sequences. This is useful for series of similar objects and for agreeing on methods within a team. Some scanners have dedicated modes, so the availability of individual features should be checked against the equipment in use.

Applications The software is used for reverse engineering, preparing models for manufacturing operations, geometry analysis, and creating digital copies of objects. Engineers can process raw scan data, verify shapes, and transfer the results to a specialized CAD or metrology system. When preparing an export file, it is important to consider the data type: mesh, point cloud, measurements, or CAD object.

Documentation lists exports of polygonal models, including OBJ, PLY, and STL, and CAD objects in STEP, IGES, and X_T. Transferring a project to Artec Cloud supports further review and collaboration. The Studio interface is available in 16 languages, including Russian and English.

Licensing and workstation requirements Artec Studio Pro is offered as an annual subscription or a perpetual Pro Lifetime license for the purchased version. The subscription includes major feature updates and access to scripts; Pro Lifetime does not include script access. Computer specifications depend on the scanner, project size, and processing mode.

HD mode requires at least 32 GB of RAM and an NVIDIA graphics card (CUDA 6.1 or higher) with at least 2 GB of video memory; Leo data requires at least 4 GB.
