How We Can Help

On-Site 3D Scanning Services
Capture complex part geometry directly at your facility for inspection, analysis and digital documentation.
Scan-to-CAD Comparison
Compare scanned surfaces with a CAD model to identify geometric deviations.
Reverse Engineering Data Capture
Digitize existing parts to support CAD reconstruction, modifications and reproduction.
Digital Part Documentation
Create 3D scan data to document complex shapes and existing component geometry.

BUILT AROUND YOUR APPLICATION

Where We Can Help

Complex Part Digitization

Capture freeform surfaces and detailed geometry that are difficult to document with conventional measurements.

CAD Deviation Analysis

Compare scanned part surfaces to nominal CAD geometry for inspection and design evaluation.

Reverse Engineering

Capture an existing component to support replacement parts, CAD reconstruction or design changes.

Part Modification Documentation

Record component geometry before and after design or manufacturing changes.

WHEN TO BRING US IN

What Is Holding
your Project Back?

A complex part has no usable CAD model or complete drawing.
Surface deviations are difficult to identify with isolated measurement points.
Moving a large or valuable part off-site would disrupt your project.

Questions Before You Get Started

When should we consider 3D scanning instead of individual measurements?

3D scanning can be useful when the shape of a surface matters, when many surface locations need review or when physical geometry needs to be captured for further engineering work. The best approach depends on part size, surface properties, feature access and the required level of detail. Share the purpose of the scan so capture requirements can be discussed before selecting equipment.

What should we provide for a scan-to-CAD discussion?

Provide the reference CAD model, drawing information and the surfaces or features of interest. Explain how the part will be referenced and what the comparison needs to show. Capturing a surface and evaluating it against a model are separate parts of a project. Agreeing on alignment, evaluation scope and output requirements helps avoid collecting data that does not answer the engineering question.

What can affect the scanning approach?

Surface finish, reflectivity, hidden geometry and access can influence how a part is scanned. Large assemblies and intricate features may call for different setups. Include photographs and approximate dimensions, and identify any restrictions on handling or surface preparation. Discuss whether the project needs surface capture, dimensional evaluation or support for a reverse engineering workflow.
