Communication
Account manager acts as a relay to the actual engineers
Direct access to the engineers running your scan, CAD or FEA
Scope coverage
Usually one discipline (scanning-only, or CAD-only)
5 connected service groups from capture to manufacturing support
Turnaround on standard scans

Industries We Serve

The same five service groups apply differently depending on your sector — an automotive Tier-1 and a medical device manufacturer are not solving the same engineering problem with a 3D scan:

Automotive Engineering
AUTO-01

Automotive

Reverse engineering legacy tooling, competitor benchmarking, and mould-flow validation ahead of high-volume OEM production.

🎯 Impact: Zero T1 Tooling Rework & FEA Validation

Tight-tolerance dimensional inspection and NABL material verification where documentation gaps aren't an option.

🛡️ Impact: 100% Traceability & High-Precision GD&T

Digitizing undocumented legacy parts, fixtures, and jigs still running on shop floors into editable solid CAD.

⚡ Impact: Zero Production Line Downtime
Tool and Die
TOOL-04

Tool & Die

Recreating worn or damaged die geometry and core inserts without original CAD files or drawings.

🛠️ Impact: Rapid Tool Re-machining CAD

Dimensional inspection and CAD reconstruction where bio-compatibility traceability and micron GD&T are non-negotiable.

🔬 Impact: Micron Precision & Regulatory Docs

As-built vs as-designed inspection across formed and fabricated assemblies with flat-pattern unfolding.

📏 Impact: Flat-Pattern Unfolding & Fit Inspection

Pattern and core geometry capture, plus mould-flow thermal analysis to eliminate porosity and casting shrinkage.

What is Who We Are?

3D Scanning is a non-contact optical metrology method that captures millions of precise XYZ surface coordinates using blue light structured fringe projection or handheld laser triangulation, generating high-density polygon point clouds and polygon meshes (.STL, .OBJ).

When to Select This Service

Choose 3D scanning when you need to inspect complex freeform contours, reverse engineer legacy components without CAD blueprints, analyze casting wall thickness, or align sheet metal stampings against master CAD models.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you perform 3D scanning on-site at our manufacturing plant?

Yes. Our engineers travel across India with portable HandySCAN 3D, optical CMMs, and laser trackers to scan parts, dies, tooling, and vehicle bodies directly on your shop floor without disassembly.

How do 3D scanning and reverse engineering differ?

3D scanning captures the raw physical surface geometry as a dense polygonal mesh (.STL). Reverse engineering takes that scan mesh and reconstructs a fully parametric, editable 3D CAD model (STEP, IGES, SolidWorks, NX) with design intent and standard geometric features.

What is a color deviation inspection map?

A color deviation map is a 3D visual comparison of the scanned physical part overlaid against the nominal CAD model. Color gradients (green = in tolerance, red = excess material, blue = undersize) immediately highlight manufacturing warpage, shrinkage, or machining errors.

Can dark, shiny, or transparent surfaces be scanned?

Yes. Our blue laser and structured light scanners handle dark and metallic surfaces directly. For highly reflective chrome or clear glass, a temporary sublimating scan spray is applied that evaporates completely without residue.

What accuracy can we expect for automotive and aerospace components?

We achieve volumetric accuracy down to 0.020 mm to 0.040 mm depending on part size and sensor setup, fully verified against VDI/VDE 2634 and ISO 10360 metrology standards.
