Reverse Engineering
BMS Design Ltd specialise in converting physical parts and components into usable digital CAD models.
BMS supply many other 3D Scanning and Metrology service companies.
Over the last 18 years BMS have created a highly efficient revers engineering processes and converted 1000s of 3D Scan files.
We can output into virtually any CAD file format including Native Solid Works.
All jobs are provided with a detailed geometric qualification report to show you exactly how close the new CAD model is relative to the scan data.
The UKs No1 for Reverse engineering.
Our Reverse Engineering Services
Since 2007 BMS have converted 1000’s of 3D Scan (.stl) files into sold surface parametric 3D CAD models. Originating from our race car design expertise, our reverse engineering services fulfil requirements from next day oil rig emergency repairs to product design, prototyping, data storage and inspection.
The Reverse Engineering process - Scan > Point Could > Mesh > Stl > Parametric > Step, Iges or native SolidWorks with full feature tree for easy modifications. We supply a quality report with every single job to compare the Scan to the CAD data provided to give confidence in the quality of the work we provide.
We work with a variety of sectors and customise our Reverse Engineering services to meet specific objectives from manufacture and assembly to documentation and optimization analysis requirements. Whether your needs are simple or complex, our team at BMS Design Ltd has the expertise and the experience to find the best solution.
3D scanning data capture is relatively easy however converting 3D scan data (AKA point cloud data) into usable CAD data is no so easy.
We specialise in converting scan data into parametric 3D CAD models.
We can output into virtually any file format including native SolidWorks (retaining the full design tree), Catia, Revit, Step, Iges, dwg.
For example, we provide a leak repair pipeline maintenance contractor with overnight (often within a few hours) emergency data processing services. Engineers scan pipeline parts and or areas in field with their own Laser Hand Held Scanners and then send their scan data (as .stl files) directly to us for processing.
We also supply many other leading 3D scanning service providers with their data processing needs.
All BMS Reverse Engineering projects are validated with a Geometric Quality Verification Reports to compare how close the new CAD model is in relation to the scan data.
3D Scanning
Mobile hand or arm laser scanning for virtually any type of component from micro medical parts, circuit boards, automotive and medical components to classic cars, helicopters and fighter jets.
We frequently convert the 3D scan data into 3D CAD models but we do offer a stand-alone 3D Scanning service with scan data provided in point cloud format.
Converting 3D Scan into 3D CAD models
BMS specialise in converting client scan data into parametric CAD models. Many clients have their own scanning equipment but don’t have the time or resource to convert scan data into usable 3D CAD models. This has always been the stumbling block when it comes to converting scan data into usable CAD data. We have been doing this since 2005 and have perfected the process. We turn jobs round overnight and for very little cost. We aim to be the world’s best in processing 3D Scan data.
