What is meant by this?

Parametric modeling converts the 3D scan into the native format of your CAD software. The finished CAD model contains a design history with which all parameters of the model can be adjusted.

What file formats are available?

Data in STL format or a point cloud format is required for the implementation of such a project. These are the standard formats for 3D scans.

What happens to the data in parametric modeling?

The first step is to convert the 3D scan into a volume model. This involves reconstructing the 3D scan as accurately as possible. Based on this, the parametric model is created in the desired CAD software. All holes and threads are adapted to the standards.

The parametric model has a deviation of 0.05 mm and 0.25 mm compared to the original 3D scan. As the CAD model contains a design history, all parameters can be accessed in order to edit them completely. A technical drawing can be derived from the parametric CAD model with little effort.

Which format will I receive?

The parametric model can be created for you in any CAD software. It is important that you tell us the version number of your CAD software in advance so that we can provide you with the finished data in perfect format.

Is there a target/actual comparison?

A target/actual comparison is created with every reverse engineering. Using this report, you can easily see where and to what extent the parametric modeling deviates from the original 3D scan.

We will be happy to clarify with you which reverse engineering is the most suitable for your project.
