Reverse Engineering Services in Thailand from 3D Scan to Editable CAD

Raw 3D scanning with STL output starts at THB 2,500. Reverse-engineering output starts at THB 4,500. A deviation-analysis report adds THB 1,000. The final quotation depends on size, complexity, preparation, scan positions, site access, cleanup, alignment, and required deliverables.

Simple scanning work can be completed within the same day. Lead time increases with part complexity, surface preparation, the number of scan positions, mesh cleanup, reverse engineering, inspection, and reporting requirements.

Bring the example in the best available condition because the scan captures the geometry that is physically present. Broken parts can still be scanned, and missing or damaged areas can often be reconstructed or modified in the 3D model when sufficient reference geometry and design intent are available.

Our optical scanners can capture subjects ranging from small gears to a 6-metre private aircraft when access and conditions are suitable. Sculptures, art pieces, and a stationary human can also be scanned. Scope, achievable detail, setup, and deliverables are assessed for each subject.

Raw geometry is commonly delivered as STL. We can also provide OBJ with captured colour when the project and capture method support colour data. Reverse-engineering projects can add editable CAD deliverables such as STEP or IGES as agreed.

Scan-only normally delivers a triangular mesh such as STL. DWG is a 2D engineering drawing, so it needs a separate reverse-engineering and drafting stage. There is no fixed reduction because CAD/DWG effort depends on the geometry and drawing requirements; we can quote scan-only and CAD/DWG as separate line items.

The scanner's volumetric accuracy specification is 0.02 mm + 0.06 mm/m. Actual project results also depend on object size and surface, preparation, access, environment, scanner setup, alignment strategy, and the requested deliverable.

We cannot perform optical 3D scanning outdoors under direct sunlight because sunlight overwhelms the projected light used by this scanning technology. We also do not offer whole-building or whole-factory scanning because we do not have a LiDAR 3D scanner. Onsite scanning of suitable parts and equipment remains available in controlled lighting.

No. The scanner needs line of sight and a stable optical response. Transparent, mirror-like, moving, very hot, inaccessible, internal, extremely small, or unsafe subjects may need preparation, partial results, another method, or may not be feasible.

An STL is normally a triangular surface mesh. It can be measured and edited with mesh tools, but it does not contain the parametric features, sketches, dimensions, and design intent of a native CAD model. Reverse engineering adds that reconstruction work.

No. It reconstructs an engineering model from visible, measurable geometry and agreed design assumptions. Wear, damage, inaccessible areas, deformation, casting variation, and unknown original intent require judgment and may not reproduce original feature history.

Usually the physical part, usable nominal CAD, a defined alignment method, critical regions, reporting needs, and an agreed interpretation of color limits. The result shows differences relative to that alignment; it is not automatically certified dimensional inspection.

Yes. We provide onsite scanning when a part is very large, cannot be disassembled, or cannot reasonably be shipped, subject to feasibility, access, safety, lighting, working space, and schedule. Travel is quoted by distance and project scope. Send photos, approximate dimensions, location, restrictions, and required deliverables for planning.
