What we undertake

  • Component scanning for reverse engineering, wear assessment or CAD comparison.
  • Surveying buildings, industrial facilities and ship technical spaces.
  • Scan registration and point cloud or mesh processing for the intended use.

What you receive

  • Point clouds in E57/RCP or meshes in STL, with the agreed processing.
  • Description of the method, reference system and project limitations.
  • Deviation comparisons or inspection reports when included in the quotation.

What we need for a quotation

Photographs, approximate dimensions, material/surface, location and access, intended use and required tolerances.

Achievable accuracy is assessed for each project. It depends on equipment, size, surfaces, conditions and registration. Parametric CAD is a separate reverse engineering stage. Scope, deliverables and timescales are defined in the written quotation, based on the requirements and conditions of each project.
