Part Scan V6.1 refines automation, improves cutting data integration, and strengthens system stability — making it a more efficient and precise companion for part digitization and preparation workflows.

The MindCAD Part Scan V6.1 update focuses on smarter geometry handling, improved export precision, and overall product stability.

Automatic Hole Recognition

When drawing a closed shape inside another part, the system now automatically distinguishes whether it should be treated as a hole or as a new part. If the new shape intersects the scanned part, it is defined as a hole; if not, it’s created as a separate part.
→ This improvement simplifies editing and eliminates manual reassignment of geometry.

Enhanced ZCC Exporter – Separate Notch Export

The ZCC export process now handles notches separately from part borders.
Outward notches remain part of the border, while inward notches are exported individually for the notch tool. The exporter also differentiates notch types (U, V, I) and records their specific size and type properties.
→ This ensures more accurate data exchange with cutting systems.

Bug Fixes and Performance Improvements

Numerous under-the-hood optimizations and stability fixes enhance reliability, speed, and consistency during scanning, editing, and exporting operations.
