3D Scanning & Reverse Engineering

3D scanning and reverse engineering is crucial in the process when creating new products and components. 

3D scanning allows us to create incredibly accurate models of components with complex geometry. Patterns & moulds can then be designed for manufacture of identical components, or more commonly, changes can be made to the design before then progressing to production. 

In addition to 3D scanning, reverse engineering can be a key factor when producing new components. With the use of existing parts, we can study and examine what laminates have been used in the layup, for example which weave types and weights of carbon fibre, what process has been used to manufacture (hand layup, infusion, prepreg) and even calculate component weights of existing or future components to suit project criteria.
