3D scanners enable the accurate mapping of three-dimensional shapes and geometries of objects, which makes them an extremely useful tool in reverse engineering.
Mechanical machinery requires regular maintenance to minimize downtime. Despite strict maintenance, failures can occur, requiring prompt intervention. In some cases, reverse engineering may be necessary to restore smooth functioning, especially if spare parts are unavailable.
Manufacturing for military readiness not only involves the initial production of arms, equipment, and technology but also the ongoing replacement and repair of degraded, outdated, or lost items, necessitating the use of the latest technology to enhance efficiency and effectiveness.
With the most accurate BLACK Series yet, made possible through a new certification and the addition of key features, as well as a complete redesign of the SILVER Series, Creaform fulfills the evolving needs of metrology professionals and designers looking to improve their quality control and product development processes.
When producing replacement parts, 3D metrology reduces time to market and ensures quality.
