Take 3d scans, and turn them into CAD products for 3D printing.
Reverse engineering is an essential skill for anyone who works with 3D scans, because 3D scans cannot be used in 3D printing applications, and you certainly cannot use 3D scans to drive a new product design you want to develop. Thats why it's essential to learn what it takes to convert a 3D scan into a CAD friendly file format, which greatly enhances the accuracy and flexibility of your device development.
Real world scans from real applications in O&P digital design.
Watch over the shoulder as we do each exercise together.
All tutorials in this series give you reusable files for your work.
Learn the fundamentals of design automation using template design.
Join a community and learn from your peers and the experts.
Made for Practitioners & Technicians.
After this training, you will have working knowledge and workflows in how to use Fusion 360 parametric CAD and Zbrush's mesh sculpting software to help you in your challenges in reverse engineering.
Intermediate training (requires working knowledge of F360 and Zbrush)

"Arthur has created a succinct course in developing designs for a C-Leg as well as learning the concepts for the individual clinician/technician to adapt for various bodies. I found the flow of the content to be well paced with attention to detail as to why I was performing these functions. This course will not only allow me to create future designs quickly, but also provide the tools to come up with new and creative designs for our patients needs and desires. I feel, with Arthur's courses anyone in the field would be capable of continuing to do what we do best, create for ourselves and give the patients the best outcome. "

Hi, I'm Arthur Hobden
Industrial Designer, CAD Operator, Digital Design Specialist
Arthur is a 3d print designer who has spent the last 9 years working as a 3D scanning specialist and industrial designer, and focuses on 3D design workflows that leverage both technologies in any custom fab setting. Arthur has worked in automotive, medical, engineering, dental, prototyping, pcb enclosures, props and film and also O&P, among others. With a passion for the 3D printing medium and software workflows, Arthur has implemented training for systems workflow for several practitioners, and uses his software skillset that bridges all genres of design to create catered, agnostic methodologies that allow users to not only learn the software tools to complete their jobs, but grow their CAD skills in highly versatile ways that can be compared against the context of what other fabrication industries are already doing.
