Reverse Engineering

From Physical Components to Practical 3D Models.

When original design files are unavailable, reverse engineering helps recreate a digital model from an existing physical component. Using 3D scanning data as a reference, we support the development of usable 3D models for engineering analysis, mould development, manufacturing, and component customization. Our approach helps transform existing parts into digital design references for further engineering and product-development work.

Our Capabilities

01

Physical Component Assessment

Examine the existing component and understand its geometry, features, and intended application before beginning the modelling process.

02

3D Geometry Capture

Use suitable scanning data or other available dimensional references to capture the component’s physical geometry.

03

CAD Model Recreation

Develop a digital 3D model using the available scan data, measurements, and engineering references.

04

Design Reconstruction

Reconstruct relevant component features and geometry to create a usable digital design reference.

05

Manufacturing and Customization Support

Support downstream engineering activities such as mould development, manufacturing preparation, component modification, and customization.

How It Works

1

Assess the Component

Understand the physical component, its geometry, its intended function, and the available design references.

2

Capture Geometry

Collect suitable 3D scan data or dimensional measurements to establish a reference for the existing component.

3

Reconstruct the Model

Use the captured geometry and engineering judgement to develop a digital 3D model of the component.

4

Prepare the Digital Design

Review the recreated model for the intended application and prepare the digital output for relevant engineering or manufacturing workflows.
