3D scanning

From physical object to manufactured part.

When the CAD never existed — or walked out with a supplier — we reconstruct it from the object itself.

Scan → CAD

A parametric, editable model of your part — dimensioned and delivered as STEP plus native CAD.

Scan → Replica

A faithful printed reproduction, ideal for fit checks, props and preservation work.

Scan → Replacement Part

The part re-engineered where the original failed — stronger material, corrected geometry — then printed.

Workflow

Six steps, one vendor.

  1. 01

    Object

    Your physical part — worn, broken or discontinued

  2. 02

    3D Scan

    Structured-light capture at up to 0.05 mm resolution

  3. 03

    CAD reconstruction

    Parametric solid rebuilt from the scan — not just a mesh copy

  4. 04

    Engineering cleanup

    Design intent restored: true cylinders, flats, symmetric features, corrected wear

  5. 05

    3D printing

    Material matched to the original duty cycle

  6. 06

    Finished component

    Inspected against the scan and shipped

Tell us about the object.

Size, material, what it does, and what's wrong with it — photos help. We'll confirm scanning feasibility and price the full path to a finished part.
