Reverse Engineering & 2D Drafting for a US-Based Industrial Manufacturer
Objective
A leading US-based industrial manufacturing enterprise required accurate 2D drafts for metal casting and machining processes. The goal was to reverse engineer physical metal products and create precise technical documentation aligned with their manufacturing standards.
Challenge
- The client had no existing CAD data for over 2000+ SKUs, making it difficult to optimize and reproduce legacy parts.
- The only available input was physical metal products, requiring advanced scanning and modeling techniques.
- Ensuring dimensional accuracy and maintaining compliance with the client’s stringent manufacturing standards was critical.
Solution
To address these challenges, we implemented a structured reverse engineering approach:
- 3D Scanning: Each product was 3D scanned to generate high-resolution skeletal files.
- Reverse Engineering: Using the scan data, our team reconstructed precise 3D CAD models.
- 2D Drafting: We created detailed 2D manufacturing drawings, ensuring compatibility with casting and machining processes.
- Customization: Final deliverables were tailored to the customer’s specifications, ensuring seamless integration into their production workflow.
Impact
Enhanced Manufacturing Efficiency: Provided high-accuracy CAD files, reducing errors in casting and machining.
Cost Savings: Eliminated manual measurement efforts and streamlined production.
Faster Time-to-Market: Reduced lead time for new parts by 40% through accurate reverse engineering.
Scalable Deliverables: Successfully delivered 2000+ SKUs with ongoing support for new product additions.
Our expertise in reverse engineering, 3D CAD modeling, and 2D drafting helped the client modernize their manufacturing processes while ensuring precision and efficiency.
