Reverse Engineering and Inspection Services

API have decades of experience in reverse engineering products.

We can reverse engineer any part to create accurate and detailed engineering drawings for manufacture. This enables us to take a part which has no engineering drawings, and quickly gather all the required information to produce CAD 3D models and 2D drawings quickly to manufacture the part.

FARO 3D Technology at API Engineering has been a major development in reverse engineering, dimensional verification and also our own quality assurance. Customers utilise API Engineering specifically for our reverse engineering capabilities as part of their complete project solution.

We offer worldwide on-site reverse engineering and inspection services including:

• Dimensional Analysis,
• Real-time scanned point cloud-to-CAD model comparison,
• Contact and non-contact measurements using hard probe and 3D scanner,
• 3D scanned Reverse engineering,
• Manufacturing inspections,
• Tool building and setup,
• Easy Verification of product quality,
• Batch production inspection to maintain the highest levels of accuracy and consistency,
• Computer generated inspection reports.

3D scanning allows us to verify product quality and dimensional analysis. We are able to quickly and accurately measure components from simple brackets up to complex fabrications.

Our inspectors utilise various softwares including POLYWORKS, a 3D metrology software, to verify dimensional readings and point clouds in real-time on initial inspection, enabling a quick comparison. Polyworks generated inspection reports such as ISIR, FAIR or custom inspection reports can be produced certifying the part has been manufactured to required tolerances.
