3D Digital Models
Once we have captured the 3D measurements of a physical model, we convert that raw data into many different formats for design, engineering, manufacturing, archival, analysis and visualization. Our team has the skills and tools to create everything from a simple point cloud to a fully parametric, 3D CAD model.
Investment
The deliverable file formats are listed in order of time and effort to produce them. For example, an STL file can be produced in a few hours while a fully parametric 3D CAD model of the same part will take several days. So, talk with us first before deciding what you need as a project deliverable.
