3DWORX is a specialist in high-precision 3D scanning and digital reverse engineering to 3D CAD models, based in Johannesburg, South Africa, and serving clients across Southern Africa, the Indian Ocean Islands and the Middle East.
Our solutions are compatible with SolidWorks, Inventor, Fusion, Mastercam, Edgecam, OnShape, AutoCAD, Solid Edge, Rhino, CATIA, Creo and more.
We rapidly create 3D CAD models for CNC machining and 3D printing of parts, tooling and casting patterns for manufacturing.
Our experience spans mining, automotive mass-production, world championship winning motor sport teams, foundries, medical manufacturing, aviation, defence, ceramics, food production and other manufacturing industries.
We offer 3D scanning to CAD conversion services, along with 3D scanners, software, and expert consulting.
Our solutions support manufacturing and quality control of final parts, prototypes, injection moulds, blow moulds, pressing dies, casting patterns, composite moulds, pumps, valves, hydraulics, gears, drives, and more…
Metrology-class accuracy and high-speed 3D scanning for precision at an attractive price
Dual scanning ranges from four high-resolution cameras provide unmatched versatility for small and large objects
Extreme accuracy for measuring intricate detail and small parts in very high resolution
High-speed, wide-field 3D scanning of larger parts for standalone and robotic-integrated quality control applications, and reverse engineering and design projects
When production stops due to failure of a critical part, and the lead time for a replacement is 12 months, how do you quickly manufacture a replacement part?
Even with 2D drawings it may take weeks to create a 3D CAD model for a replacement part that has complex or organic-shaped geometry.
With an eviXscan 3D scanner and Geomagic Design X software, a precise 3D CAD model can be created in a fraction of the time.
3D scanning a part is the first step to reverse engineering geometric and organic features to create a 3D CAD model.
Scan data is combined with measurements and data sheet information for bearings, seals, keyways, etc.
The 3D CAD model can be used to CNC machine or 3D print prototypes or final parts, or sacrificial or reusable casting patterns.
Shown above is a 3D CAD model for a 900kg rotor shaft for mixing rubber, which had to be remanufactured quickly.
The model was created using an eviXscan 3D scanner and Geomagic Design X software.
The replacement rotor could be CNC machined from a casting or a billet depending on material availability and the manufacturing techniques chosen to quickly return the host machine to use.
3DWORX can help you choose a suitable 3D scanner for your use cases, and provide coaching on Geomagic Design X software for reverse engineering, and Geomagic Control X software for non-contact optical inspection and quality control.
Feel free to reach out with any questions. Whether you’re looking to learn more about our engineering services or to buy your own 3D scanner, we’re ready to help you every step of the way.
