Home / 3D Scanning

Capture any object,
exactly as it is.

Our newest scanning system gives metrology-grade accuracy without markers and without scanning spray. If it exists, we can turn it into a file you can use.

Accurate scans, not just pretty ones

Plenty of scanners produce something that looks right. We measure. Our system holds dimensional accuracy to 0.02 mm in every axis, which is the difference between a picture of your part and a file you can build from.

The newest addition to the workshop is a self-tracking scanner, so there are no stickers, no markers, and no chalky spray on the object we are capturing. That matters when the thing in your hands is old, delicate, or the only one left.

Rates are competitive, and the deliverables are ones you can hand to an engineer with confidence.

The hard ones

Some jobs take a steady hand

Scanning a rare piece is rarely one-and-done. A turn-of-the-century street lamp we digitized took multiple detailed sessions, a steady hand, and a fair amount of determination before the data was clean enough to build from.

That is the part most people do not see, and it is exactly why the file you get back is worth having. Complex geometry, deep recesses, and reflective surfaces all get handled rather than glossed over.

Reasons a scan solves the problem

Anything you cannot buy, cannot measure by hand, or cannot risk losing.

Reverse engineering

An existing part becomes an accurate model you can modify, improve, or manufacture again. Ideal when the original drawings are long gone.

Parts nobody sells anymore

Discontinued, obsolete, or out of production. We capture the one you have before it breaks completely.

Restoration and heirlooms

Antiques, instruments, and family pieces get documented and reproduced without being altered or taken apart.

Complex shapes

Curves, organic forms, and castings that no set of calipers is going to describe correctly.

Checking what you made

Compare the part in your hand against the model it came from, and see where it drifted.

Files you can keep

Scan files in STL, OBJ, PLY, or 3MF, and CAD files in STEP or most other common formats, so the model is yours to use with any shop, not just ours.

How it goes

Scan to finished part, all in one shop

Most customers do not want a file. They want the object. We can take it the whole way.

We capture it

You bring the object to Neenah, or we come to it when it cannot travel. The scan happens without touching or coating the piece.

We clean it up

Raw scan data becomes a real model with true dimensions, sharp edges where they belong, and repairs where the original was worn.

We make it real

Print it here in the material that suits the job, or take your file elsewhere. Your call, either way.

How the scanner works

From a small bracket to a whole car

Our Revopoint Trackit uses a tracking station that watches the scanner from across the room, so it always knows exactly where it is. No stickers on your part, no spray, and no stitching small scans together by hand.

Small and precise

Pieces as small as 10 mm, captured to within 0.02 mm. Fine detail on brackets, knobs, and worn mechanical parts.

Big and whole

Objects up to 6 m long in one session: car bodies, boat parts, furniture, and machinery that cannot go on a bench.

Into the tight spots

When a corner is hidden from the tracking station, the scanner comes off the tracker and works by hand to finish the job.

Shape and color

A color camera records the surface along with the shape, so restorations and display pieces keep their look.

Ready for any software

Files in STL, OBJ, PLY, 3MF, GLTF, or FBX, and cleaned up into a STEP model when you need real CAD.

Accurate across the whole piece

On large work the accuracy holds across the whole object, so the far end measures as true as the near one.

Common questions

Good to know

Do you need to put stickers or spray on my part?
No. Our self-tracking scanner works without markers and without scanning spray, so nothing is applied to your object. That is what makes it safe for antiques and finished surfaces.
How accurate is it really?
Dimensional accuracy of 0.02 mm in X, Y, and Z. For most mechanical work that is far tighter than the tolerance the part actually needs, which is the point.
What can you scan?
Anything from about 10 mm up to around 6 m long, from a worn knob to a car body. Tell us what it is and we will tell you honestly if scanning suits it.
Can I get the file, or do you keep it?
You can have the file. Scans come as STL, OBJ, PLY, or 3MF, and CAD models come as STEP or whatever format your shop uses, so you are never locked in.
What does a scan cost?
It depends on size, complexity, and how clean the result has to be, so we quote per job. Rates are competitive and there are no surprises after the fact.
Bring us the object

Let us scan it.

Tell us what needs capturing and what you want to do with it afterward. If scanning is not the right answer, we will say so.

We reply the same day whenever we can.
