Contact AirCorps Aviation to discuss your project. AirCorps will verify that 3D scanning can be applied and benefit your objective. We will also determine which of the following steps are required to meet your goals. For example, you may have the ability to model in CAD or fabricate/ manufacture the part yourself. We can provide whatever deliverables at any step in the process so that you have data that works for you.
Once the deliverables are defined, the subject to be reverse engineered is supplied by shipping or AirCorps arriving at your location.
The part is scanned and instantaneously developed as a 3D mesh model. Aeroscan can provide 3D laser scanning for parts that will fit in your hand up to an entire aircraft.
Post processing refers to the effort of “cleaning” and repairing the scan data. Often the scan has unwanted content or areas that need more detail. This step also allows us to attach “entities” or reference that will be exported for the next phase of 3D modeling.
3D printing can be performed for prototyping or verifying part fitment before machining expensive material. In some circumstances the 3D printed part can even serve as the duplicate replacement.
Through a fully developed CAD model, drawings and CAD files are delivered to a machinist who determines the most cost effective and appropriate process for fabricating the part. Finally, cost savings are again realized when the part fits perfectly avoiding start over – remeasuring, and fabricating.
Virtually limitless 3d scanning – no matter the part size, complexity, material or color
Accuracy of up to 0.0012 in., resolution of up to 0.002 in., high repeatability and traceable certificate.
No external positioning system, no arms, no tripod or fixture.
The part and scanner can be moved freely during scanning. Take it from place to place or use it in-house or on site.
Model generation, right as you complete acquisition for realtime visualization of what is scanned.
