3D modeling (also known as meshing) is the process of developing a mathematical representation of any three-dimensional surface of object (either inanimate or living) via specialized software. wikipedia.org

SolidWorks is a 3D mechanical CAD (computer-aided design) program that runs on Microsoft Windows and is being developed by Dassault Systmes SolidWorks Corp., a subsidiary of Dassault Systmes, S. A. (V_lizy, France). wikipedia.org

3D printing is a phrase used to describe the process of creating three dimensional objects from digital file using a materials printer, in a manner similar to printing images on paper. wikipedia.org

Reverse engineering is the process of discovering the technological principles of a device, object, or system through analysis of its structure, function, and operation. wikipedia.org

3D computer graphics are works of graphic art that were created with the aid of digital computer and specialized 3D software. In general, the term may also refer to the process of creating such graphics, or the field of study of 3D computer graphic techniques and its related technology. wikipedia.org

Mechanical engineering is a discipline of engineering that applies the principles of physics and materials science for analysis, design, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems. wikipedia.org

The engineering design process is the formulation of a plan to help an engineer build a product with a specified performance goal. This process involves a number of steps, and parts of the process may need to be repeated many times before production of a final product can begin. wikipedia.org

Product design is the process of creating a new product to be sold by a business to its customers. wikipedia.org

Mechanical engineering is a discipline of engineering that applies the principles of engineering, physics and materials science for analysis, design, manufacturing, and maintenance of mechanical systems. wikipedia.org

3D scanning involves using a 3D scanner to analyze a real-world object or environment to collect data on its shape and possibly its appearance (i.e. color). The collected data can then be used to construct digital three-dimensional models. wikipedia.org

Industrial design is the use of a combination of applied art and applied science to improve the aesthetics, ergonomics, and usability of a product, but it may also be used to improve the product's marketability and production. wikipedia.org

NX is an advanced CAD/CAM/CAE software package developed by Siemens PLM Software. It is used, among other tasks, for design, engineering analysis, and manufacturing finished designs (by using included machining modules). wikipedia.org
