Reverse Engineering

At Global Design Solutions (GDS), we understand that 3D reverse engineering services are critical for various industries, including agriculture, start-ups, aerospace, toy makers, 3D artists, and others. Our team of experts can help clients optimize their designs, improve product quality, and reduce costs. Through the use of reverse engineering, we assist clients who have missing drawings and 3D models, enabling them to optimize their current designs and update their products effectively. Here are a couple of examples of our projects across these industries, demonstrating how we help our clients achieve their goals:

GDS excels in 3D reverse engineering services, delivering precision and efficiency across diverse industries:

  • Agriculture: Reverse engineering tractor components with high-resolution 3D scanning, optimizing machinery through Finite Element Analysis (FEA), and creating bespoke parts.
  • Start-ups: Rapid prototyping with Computer-Aided Design (CAD), reverse engineering for product improvement using Non-Destructive Testing (NDT), and custom component creation with additive manufacturing.
  • Aerospace: Rigorous reverse engineering of aircraft components with precise Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMM), design optimization using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), and custom part creation meeting aerospace standards.
  • Toy Makers: Crafting 3D models for prototyping with Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining, reverse engineering toys with 3D point cloud data, and creating custom molds using Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM).
  • 3D Artists: Virtual model creation for gaming with advanced polygonal modeling, reverse engineering for digital media using 3D scanning, and custom accessory development through high-fidelity 3D printing.
  • Automotive: Reverse engineering aftermarket parts using Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMM) and 3D scanning, custom accessory development with Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) simulations, and design optimization through structural analysis.
  • Architecture: 3D model creation for visualization with Building Information Modeling (BIM), geometry optimization using parametric design tools, and reverse engineering architectural components with laser scanning.
  • Medical: Reverse engineering medical implants with precision metrology tools, developing custom prosthetics using 3D printing and Computer-Aided Manufacturing (CAM), and reconstructing damaged parts through 3D modeling and simulation.
  • Manufacturing: Custom part and tool creation with Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machining and additive manufacturing, machinery optimization through Finite Element Analysis (FEA), and replacement part development based on reverse engineering data.
  • Construction: 3D model creation for visualization and clash detection using Building Information Modeling (BIM), reverse engineering architectural components with high-precision laser scanning, geometry optimization for industrial and architectural applications through advanced design software and leveraging metrology 3D laser scanning for accurate measurements in facade and cladding installations.
