Without a doubt, reverse engineering is one of the most efficient ways to create accurate CAD from an existing product. Today’s laser-powered devices enable scanning of the most complex of geometries with the most intricate of details.
Reverse engineering is an essential tool in the product development cycle. Its uses range from inspections and digital analysis to CAD improvements to part recreation and development.
We can provide you with all these services if required as part of your product development package or as a service in its own right. We operate a portable FAROArm CMM scanner with a 2.7 m scan diameter. Our experienced design team, with expert knowledge in Delcam PowerSHAPE, SolidWorks Pro and other CAD packages are on hand to provide design support and technical advice.
