Processing an elbow scan with MSoft in 4 easy steps.


First, align your scan.  


Aligning your scan using the 4 Views function will indicate to MSoft where is the front, the left or right side ,and top of your model. Click and hold to rotate the model until every view is properly oriented. 

 

 

Second, clip your scan. 


Clipping your scan is essential to cut the parts you don't need, resulting in a cleaner model. Click and drag to draw a line where you want to slice your model. 

 

  

Third, add a skeleton to your model.  


Adding a skeleton to an articulated member will precisely indicate to MSoft where is the joint on the model. Click and drag the red spheres, representing the joints, to align the bones with the model. Adjust your point with different views to be more precise. 

 

 

Fourth, reconstruct your model.  


The reconstruction is the automatic process in which MSoft will smooth your model to create a clean, watertight result. MSoft will proceed in only a couple of seconds. 

 

  

Once the model is reconstructed, MSoft will ask you if you want to use tokens to save your work. If you are using an illimited licence, you won’t need to spend tokens and directly access to your final file. After accepting, you will be able to save your file in the format and folder of your choice. You will also have access to the measurements section.
