Reverse Engineering
Advanced reverse engineering service
for a faster product development cycle
About
Reverse engineering uses physical measurement on an existing product’s physical dimensions, geometry and features. These measurements are collected and inputted to generate a 3D CAD solid model or 2D CAD.
The reverse engineering of a part or product typically results in a detailed digital 3D model or digital 3D assembly which can be used to improve the product’s design as well functionality.
Our Service
We offer a wide range of reverse engineering services to all size companies. Our team of experienced designers have decades of manufacturing experience. Allowing us to apply our manufacturing experience in our hands-on approach to reverse engineering.
Our client provides the physical components or parts for our team’s review. We measure and collect data to our systems. Using this data, our team can generate a 3D CAD model, 2D CAD data, 3D digital renderings, output a prototype model, etc. as well as move on to the next step such as design updates and modifications or soft tooling.
We can help you get the best out of your reverse engineering efforts.
Example Applications
- Manufacturing tooling at ‘end of life’ with no existing 2D or 3D documentation of the part(s) which the tool generated.
- Update of current design is needed. However, existing documentation does not reflect “on the fly” changes made to the product over the years.
- Tooling no longer exists. Documentation does not exist. However, you do have a part in hand.
- Competitor’s product and your product have some design over lap which you need to document for review by your patent attorney.
Utilizing existing part(s), a 3D CAD model is created to accurately reflect the existing design. This allows quick easy updates or improvements to the design. A rapid prototype is then generated from the 3D CAD to allow you to approve the design and obtain market feedback.
