Reverse Engineering & Precision Work

3D scanned CAD model of an industrial pump component for reverse engineering

Reverse engineering and precision 3D scanning turn complex, legacy, or undocumented components into accurate, manufacture-ready CAD data. 

Our Artec Leo handheld scanning services provide high-resolution, high-accuracy capture for detailed components and assemblies. Typical applications include:

Deliverables:

  • High‑resolution meshes (OBJ, STL, PLY)
  • Rebuilt parametric CAD (STEP, IGES) for design and fabrication
  • Inspection/deviation reports with tolerances

Benefits:

  • Fast, portable capture of fine geometry, even in tight access
  • Clean, editable outputs—not just raw scans

Reverse Engineering — FAQs

Yes. Our Artec Leo handheld scanner captures a component’s geometry directly, allowing us to rebuild an accurate, manufacture-ready CAD model without needing original manufacturer drawings.

High-resolution mesh files (OBJ, STL, PLY) and rebuilt parametric CAD files (STEP, IGES) suitable for design and fabrication.

Our handheld scanning captures component geometry to within 0.3mm/m, suitable for manufacturing-grade tolerances.

Yes. The Artec Leo is a fast, portable handheld scanner well suited to detailed capture in constrained assemblies and tight spatial envelopes.
