3D scanning and industrial dimensional inspection
EREM carries out 3D scans of industrial parts in our workshop or on site to facilitate dimensional inspection, reverse engineering, quality control and the preparation of custom manufacturing.
Measure existing parts
Capture the real geometry of a part when drawings are missing, incomplete or difficult to use.
Reduce uncertainty
Compare the real part with a CAD model, analyse deviations and support reliable technical decisions.
Speed up analysis
Quickly obtain usable digital data for inspection, rework or manufacturing.
Applications of 3D scanning
3D scanning makes it possible to use the real geometry of a part to better inspect, understand, adapt or reproduce an industrial component.
Reverse engineering
Scanning existing parts to rebuild a usable base for the design, adaptation or manufacturing of a new component.
Dimensional inspection
Capturing shapes, dimensions and complex geometries to check part conformity or prepare a technical analysis.
Quality control
Support for the inspection of machined, welded or assembled parts, with a better understanding of deviations and critical areas.
Part / CAD comparison
Comparison between a real part and a CAD model to identify deviations, deformations or manufacturing differences.
On-site scanning
Possible intervention directly at the customer’s site when the part is large, difficult to move or integrated into an existing assembly.
Manufacturing preparation
Use of scan data to prepare rework, adaptation, reproduction or custom manufacturing.
A portable and precise measurement solution
Our portable 3D scanner allows us to quickly capture complex geometries on industrial parts. It complements our inspection, engineering and manufacturing capabilities, helping us move more efficiently from the real part to usable digital data.
Portable 3D scanning in the workshop or on site
Capture of complex shapes and surfaces that are difficult to measure
Usable for inspection, quality control or CAD reconstruction
Equipment suited to industrial metrology applications
Our approach
Each request is handled according to its objective: inspect, compare, reproduce, adapt or prepare manufacturing.
Needs analysis
We identify the objective of the 3D scan: quality control, reverse engineering, CAD comparison, rework or manufacturing.
3D scanning
The part is scanned in our workshop or on site using the portable scanner and a dedicated workstation.
Data processing
The captured data is visualised, analysed and prepared to obtain a usable digital base.
Technical follow-up
Depending on the requirement, EREM can support the rework, adaptation, manufacturing or final inspection of the part.
Prepare your request
To quickly assess the feasibility of a 3D scan, a few details help us better understand your requirement.
Photos of the part or assembly to be scanned
Approximate dimensions and weight of the part
Existing drawing or CAD model, if available
Objective: inspection, reproduction, adaptation, comparison or manufacturing
Access constraints if the scan must be carried out on site
Tolerances, critical areas or priority inspection points
Examples of 3D scanning
From workshop scanning to digital visualisation, 3D scanning transforms an existing part into usable data.
Do you have a part to inspect, reproduce or adapt?
Send us a few photos, dimensions or existing drawings. We will help you determine whether 3D scanning is relevant for your requirement.
