The 3D Scanning and Reverse Engineering Process
Our 3D scanning process digitally captures data without causing damage to the physical object being scanned. With high-accuracy scanners we can translate physical objects into precise digital CAD models quickly and accurately.
-
Using a portable laser scanning tool, we capture every detail of the object in 3D space, generating a 3D mesh that serves as a digital representation of the item. Our scanners capture tens of thousands of points per second, enabling rapid and thorough inspection of parts.
-
Following scanning, we address any unwanted artifacts such as noise, outliers, holes, or ghost geometry in the data. Through manual processes, we fill holes, clean, align, and merge scan data to create a true scanned replica.
-
We provide you with a comprehensive digital representation of your part. Our CAD outputs can be utilised for reverse engineering, quality inspection and prototyping purposes. Whether laying surfaces over the scan mesh or building clean CAD surfaces, we tailor our approach to deliver optimal results for your project.

Why use 3D Scanners?
When measuring complex parts, 3D scanners accurately capture surfaces, simplifying the process. They also create digital records for easy re-measurement and are adaptable to various environments, ensuring usability in challenging conditions.

Applications of 3D Scanning
From reverse engineering existing parts to quality control, parametric 3D modelling, and preparation for prototyping, 3D scanning finds application across a multitude of industries, including aerospace, automotive, consumer products, healthcare, heritage preservation, and more.
