3D Scanning Technologies
Our dedicated inspection facility includes:
- An Artec Leo Wireless 3D Scanner
- Two 1.5m Hexagon Romer Absolute Arms (portable)
- One 4m Hexagon Romer Absolute Arm
This state-of-the-art technology allows us to capture exceptionally accurate measurements in various environments. We utilise Autodesk Power Inspect and Artec Studio software for all scanning and inspection purposes, simplifying the inspection of large, complex, and layered parts. For editing scan data and mesh data, we use Geomagic Design X, enabling us to define and sculpt the highest quality surfaces.
Our 3D Scanning Equipment Capabilities
3D Scanning Measurement
Using our 3D scanners, we collect data from physical objects and replicate them in the digital realm. This technology measures the finest details, ensuring that parts fit together properly, designs are optimised, and tolerances are maintained. It improves engineering processes and tooling while reducing costs associated with scrap parts, product recalls, and production downtimes.
3D Scan Inspection
Our scanning technology allows us to analyse the geometry of manufactured parts against a master CAD model, highlighting dimensional adherence to tolerances. We generate detailed reports with this information and provide them to our customers.
Reverse Engineering
We offer comprehensive reverse engineering services. By scanning existing parts or assemblies, we can generate CAD models from the collected data, even if the original models were lost or nonexistent. This allows us to reengineer and manufacture new products with precision.
Object Scaling Services
Our 3D scanning services enable us to collect detailed data from various objects. We can then manipulate this data to scale the job to the desired size. For instance, we can scan a small maquette of a statue and scale it up to 7 ft tall for machining and assembly.
Example 3D Scanning Projects
Explore our selection of case studies showcasing our work. We have collaborated with some of the world's leading sculptors and artists, producing pieces that are displayed globally. Our 3D scanning service has been crucial in these projects, demonstrating our capabilities and expertise.
