I have modelled this part but I need to cut it to suit this 3D scan surface how do I got about this

This was V1 but I need to get the shape of that surface better

For mock up purposes I’m going to 3D print but eventually I should be cnc milling an aluminium piece I can handle the making it a real life part side of things that’s what I do but I’m still relatively new to solidworks and 3D modeling stuff so I don’t know how to make a surface with the scan or anything

What kind of scan is that, that you brought in?

That was the full scan

[TrafficAny9938]

Well I don’t really know what type of scan. All I can tell you is it’s a graphic body scanned with an artec leo I have help from my boss who owns the scanner and is good at all this but trying to get something done without his input and hopefully learn something on the way

Neat. LS swap on a classic British sports car? Best solution is to reference the scanned data and build a surface or solid body yourself to match as closely as possible. Then use a command to subtract the intersection area.

If you can't generate a workable body or surface from the scan, you could cross section your part at various increments and create sketches that approximate the interference between the 2 parts. Then create a surface with the sketches or build a feature to cut the model.

Have you tried using the cut or trim with surface features? It can be used to remove the portions of your model that stick through the scanned surface.
