Service · 3D scanning

3D scanning of parts: from physical to digital with precision

We digitise real parts with high-resolution 3D scanning to capture their exact geometry, ready for reverse engineering, design or manufacturing.

What we solve

What we solve with 3D scanning

When a part has no drawings, or the drawings don't match reality, 3D scanning captures its geometry exactly as it is: wear, modifications and tolerances included.

  • Parts with no technical documentation or original drawings.
  • Complex, organic geometries that are hard to measure by hand.
  • Dimensional verification of a manufactured or worn part.
  • A reliable starting point for reverse engineering and CAD design.
What we deliver to you

Results, not loose files

  • A high-resolution 3D mesh of the real part.
  • A point cloud and dimensional references to work from.
  • A file ready for CAD reconstruction or comparison.
  • A report on the critical areas detected during the scan.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

How accurate is 3D scanning?

We scan to 0.02 mm. We capture the part's real geometry exactly as it is: wear, modifications and tolerances included.

Can I scan a part without drawings?

Yes. 3D scanning is designed precisely for parts with no technical documentation or original drawings, or when the drawings don't match reality.

What do you deliver after the scan?

A high-resolution 3D mesh of the real part, a point cloud and dimensional references, a file ready for CAD reconstruction or comparison, and a report of the critical areas detected.

Does it work for complex geometries or shapes that are hard to measure by hand?

Yes. 3D scanning handles complex, organic or hard-to-measure-by-hand geometries, and lets us dimensionally verify a manufactured or worn part.

How quickly do you reply?

We reply with feasibility and timeframe within 24–48 business hours. Send us photos and rough measurements and we'll assess the scan with no obligation.
