Our 3D inspection service uses advanced 3D scanning technology to analyse the geometry and shape of physical objects. This allows verification against a CAD model or another 3D scan, ensuring dimensional accuracy and functional compliance. We provide comprehensive inspection reports for quality control, manufacturing, and engineering applications.
A few of our most requested services include:
- Dimensional Inspection – compare nominal CAD data with 3D scan results
- First Article Inspection – verify initial production parts against specifications
- CAD Reverse Engineering – convert 3D scans into accurate CAD models
- Deformation Analysis – assess changes or distortions in parts over time
Service Included
- Sections Analysis
- 2D/3D GD&T/PMI dimensions
- Boundary Deviations
- Comparison Points
Aligned 3D Scan Data Vs. nominal CAD
Deviation Analysis
Frequently Asked Question
3D scan data (usually STL) is aligned with the nominal CAD file (STEP, IGES, etc.). Inspection tools then generate deviation maps, check GD&T tolerances, and perform sectional measurements to ensure accuracy.
The Critical Role of Inspection in Quality Assurance
Quality assurance is vital for any business, ensuring products meet exact standards. 3D scanning has become a key tool in this process, capturing precise measurements for detailed inspection and analysis. By comparing 3D scan data with specifications, defects are identified and improvements can be made, enhancing product design and manufacturing. 3D scanning also provides valuable documentation and traceability, essential in sectors like aerospace and automotive, allowing businesses to maintain accurate digital records of every inspected product.
