Introduction

Discover Creaform Academia

Creaform ACADEMIA is an educational solution suite designed to introduce students to the exciting world of 3D scanning.  Creaform ACADEMIA combines hardware, software and online training courses that bring 3D metrology and reverse engineering to life.  It allows students and faculty leaders to rapidly digitise objects creating 3D models in STEP or IGES formats (as well as in native formats) and then manipulate that model with common CAD systems like Solidworks, SolidEdge, Catia, NX, Pro/E etc… or the VX suite of software products from Creaform.

An essential skill for students

3D scanning is an essential tool that engineering students must learn in order to succeed in the industry. By mastering 3D scanning, they can take any object from the physical world and create an editable model in the digital world. This is a valuable skill that will help students stand out from the crowd.  Creaform ACADEMIA can help deliver the hardware, software and content you need to get there.
