Answers to your common questions about our services and processes.
General Questions
Our workflow follows three core steps: Capture (scanning or receiving your data), Process & Engineer (data cleaning, modeling, analysis), and Deliver (providing outputs such as CAD models, inspection reports, or BIM files). Each project begins with a consultation to define the scope, deliverables, and timeline.
We provide neutral formats such as STEP, IGES, IFC, and industry-standard scan data formats such as E57, RCP, and PTS. Mesh formats include STL, OBJ, and PLY. Deliverables are tailored to your workflow needs.
We use calibrated, metrology-grade equipment, standardized workflows, and multi-tier validation. Every project undergoes a final quality check by an experienced engineer before delivery.
Yes. We sign NDAs upon request, and all client data is stored securely on encrypted servers. We never share project information with third parties.
Both. We can perform scanning on-site at your facility or location, or work remotely if you provide scan data, drawings, or parts.
Contact us through our form or email with a description of your project. Attach drawings, sketches, or photos if available. The more detail you provide, the more accurate our quote will be.
Small scanning and CAD projects may take a few days. Larger facility scans, reverse engineering, or detailed analysis projects may take several weeks depending on scope.
Pricing depends on project complexity, required accuracy, deliverables, and timelines. We offer both fixed-price and time-based models.
3D Laser Scanning & Reality Capture
Terrestrial laser scanning provides extremely high-resolution point clouds for interiors, mechanical spaces, or industrial equipment. Drone-based photogrammetry or LiDAR is ideal for large outdoor areas such as construction sites, mines, or rooftops.
A small room can take minutes, while large plants may take several days. Processing, registration, and modeling usually take longer than the scanning itself.
Yes. We use handheld scanners and portable arms for small objects, and tripod-based or aerial systems for large facilities.
For small objects, accuracies can reach ±0.02 mm. For buildings or large sites, accuracy is typically within ±2 mm.
Reverse Engineering & Digital Legacy
Yes. We capture geometry from the physical part using 3D scanning and rebuild a fully parametric CAD model, often improving manufacturability.
Scan-to-CAD → Manufacturable, parametric models for parts, machines, and mechanical assemblies. Scan-to-BIM → Intelligent building/structural models for architecture, engineering, and construction.
Yes. We digitize old machinery, heritage artifacts, and out-of-production components, preserving them as accurate digital models.
Quality Control & Metrology
FAI is a detailed verification of a first production part against design specifications. It ensures the manufacturing process is correct before full production begins.
Yes. We can reference your engineering drawings with GD&T callouts and generate detailed pass/fail inspection reports.
Reports include deviation heat maps, dimensional comparisons, and full GD&T analysis.
Engineering Design & Drafting
Yes. We take initial sketches or concepts and transform them into detailed 3D models and manufacturable drawings.
Yes. Old paper drawings, blueprints, or PDFs can be converted into editable CAD or BIM models.
Automotive, aerospace, construction, consumer products, heavy machinery, and more.
Additive Manufacturing & 3D Printing
FDM: Prototypes and functional parts SLA: High-detail models SLS: Nylon functional parts Metal Printing: Aerospace and automotive-grade parts
DfAM optimizes designs for 3D printing by reducing weight, consolidating components, and enhancing structural efficiency.
Yes. We support rapid prototyping as well as short-run functional manufacturing.
Simulation & Analysis (FEA/CFD)
FEA predicts structural performance (stress, strain, vibration), while CFD evaluates airflow, liquid flow, and thermal behavior before physical testing.
Yes. We simulate heat transfer, dissipation, and modal vibration frequencies to prevent failures.
Absolutely. Virtual testing minimizes trial-and-error, saving material and development time.
Design Automation & Technical Solutions
Repetitive engineering tasks like drawing generation, parameter-driven models, BOM updates, and data reports.
Yes. We build automation scripts and lightweight applications tailored to CAD, BIM, or engineering workflows.
Reduced errors, faster delivery, and consistency across engineering outputs.
Digital Twin Solutions
A 3D model is static. A Digital Twin is dynamic — connected with real-world sensor data for real-time monitoring and predictive analysis.
Manufacturing, AEC, energy, and infrastructure for plant monitoring, asset management, and predictive maintenance.
Yes. We connect physical assets to digital models via sensor data streams.
Training & Consulting
Software training (3D design, BIM, CAE tools) Workflow training (e.g., Scan-to-CAD, Scan-to-BIM) Technology adoption (3D scanning integration, automation setup)
Yes. Training is tailored to industry-specific requirements.
We review your workflows, identify bottlenecks, and provide a roadmap for technology adoption, including hardware/software selection and ROI analysis.
