3D Laser Scanning Service

Agile Manufacturing’s 3D laser scanning service uses the latest in hand-held and desktop scanners including the Capture from 3D Systems for our 3D scanning service. We provide reverse engineering for 3D printing or if you need to generate 3D CAD models from existing objects, whether to determine the original design intent, to modernize manufacturing processes, or to design a new part to fit to a legacy part.  Examples of 3D scanning applications:

• Parametric 3D modeling in generic and native formats
• Surface reconstruction
• Hybrid reconstruction
• Reconstruction from 3D scanning data, probing, 2D drawings, sketches, etc.
• Design modification from actual objects
• Data preparation for digital simulation
• 3D modeling of objects, no matter their size

Use our 3D Laser Scanning service for reverse engineering and inspection. Validate parts from your overseas supplier. Reverse engineer old designs for replacement tooling. Reverse engineer a model and modify with updates.

3D scanning is a safe, no-contact way of scanning small-to-large complex objects and rendering them into accurate, three-dimensional models. This technology is so innovative because it allows people to measure objects from a safe distance. Additionally, 3D scanners can reach confined spaces that humans just can’t access.

3D Laser Scanning is a non-contact, non-destructive technology that digitally captures the shape of physical objects using a line of laser light. 3D laser scanners create “point clouds” of data from the surface of an object. In other words, 3D laser scanning is a way to capture a physical object’s exact size and shape into the computer world as a digital 3-dimensional representation.

3D laser scanners measure fine details and capture free-form shapes to quickly generate highly accurate point clouds. 3D laser scanning is ideally suited to the measurement and inspection of contoured surfaces and complex geometries which require massive amounts of data for their accurate description and where doing this is impractical with the use of traditional measurement methods or a touch probe
