What is EXModel Pro University?

EXModel Pro University is a professional reverse engineering solution provided by Shining 3D, tailored specifically for academic and research environments. It equips students and researchers with a seamless scan-to-CAD workflow, allowing them to edit raw meshes, extract primitives , and reconstruct complex freeform surfaces natively. 

By providing the exact same full functionality as the commercial version under an academic license, it ensures students graduate with hands-on experience using industry standard 3D metrology and modeling tools.

  • Why Educators & Researchers Choose EXModel Pro University

    Educators choose EXModel Pro University because it delivers professional-grade reverse engineering tools without the commercial price tag. It is seamlessly integrated with SHINING 3D scanning software , making the transition from physical scan to CAD design intuitive and easy for students to master.

Typical Academic Workflow Using EXModel Pro University

A typical classroom or research workflow using EXModel Pro University includes the following steps:

  1. Import Scan Data – Scan physical artifacts in the lab using a SHINING 3D scanner and import the mesh data into EXModel with a single click.
  2. Mesh Preparation – Clean and prepare the mesh by filling holes and removing outliers to create a watertight model ready for modeling.
  3. Modelling – Extract reference primitives, use constrained 2D sketching, and apply free-form modeling or auto-surfacing for organic shapes — then combine them with hybrid modeling to finalize the CAD design.
  4. Export – Export the finished model in industry-standard formats (IGES, STEP, DXF) for use in CNC machining, 3D printing, or downstream CAD/CAM workflows.

EXModel Pro University ensures students develop practical, industry-ready skills in digital reconstruction and reverse engineering.

  • Full Industry Standard Toolset

    Delivers the exact same full functionality as the commercial EXModel Pro version, ensuring students train on professional-grade features without restriction.

  • Seamless Hardware Integration

    Effortless interaction with SHINING 3D scanning software allows students to transfer mesh data to EXModel with a single click, making the transition from scan to design even easier.

  • Advanced Mesh Editing

    User friendly mesh editing tools make it easy for students to reduce data size, fill holes, and create watertight meshes for subsequent 3D printing or reverse engineering.

  • Constrained 2D Sketching

    Features robust dimensioning and constraint tools, allowing students to extract reference points via interactive cutting to create highly accurate 2D sketches.

  • Freeform Modelling

    Empowers students to reverse engineer organic shapes using one click auto surfacing or manually reconstruct complex surfaces using proprietary snap-to-mesh technology.

  • Hybrid Modeling Environment

    Teaches advanced CAD concepts by allowing students to blend free-form surfaces and prismatic features into a single, modifiable parametric model.

  • Industrial Design & Digital Arts

    Students capture real-world objects with handheld 3D scanners to create detailed 3D assets for reverse engineering and digital modeling.

  • Marine & Mechanical Engineering

    Students 3D scan heavy industrial components, like propellers, to reverse engineer legacy parts into editable CAD models.

  • Biomedical Engineering

    Students reverse engineer organic 3D scans into smooth, anatomical CAD models to design custom prosthetics and wearable devices.
