What Is 3D Laser Scanning?
3D laser scanning captures the precise geometry of a physical component as a dense point cloud, which is then used to reconstruct an accurate 3D CAD model. It is used to produce new CAD models from existing components when original drawings are missing, outdated, or unavailable from the supplier.
How We 3D Laser Scan Parts
We scan the component to capture millions of surface points, process and align the point cloud data, then reconstruct the part as a parametric 3D CAD model. Where required, we generate dimensioned 2D drawings from the model — delivering files ready for manufacturing, modification or archiving.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 3D laser scanning?
3D laser scanning captures the precise geometry of a physical component as a dense point cloud, which is then used to reconstruct an accurate 3D CAD model. It is used when original drawings are missing, outdated, or unavailable from the supplier.
How accurate is 3D laser scanning?
Accuracy depends on the scanner and part, but typically ranges from ±0.02 mm to ±0.1 mm — suitable for high-precision manufacturing, engineering and quality control.
What can you produce from a 3D scan?
From a 3D scan we produce a fully editable 3D CAD model and, where required, dimensioned 2D manufacturing drawings compliant with AS1100 or your preferred drafting standard.
What file formats do you deliver?
We deliver all standard CAD formats including STEP, IGES, STL, DWG, DXF and native SolidWorks, Inventor and Revit files.
