3D Scanning and Reverse Engineering

Carullo Engineering offers an advanced 3D scanning and reverse engineering service that is essential for companies and professionals who wish to digitize physical components, optimize existing designs or develop new solutions with precision and speed.

For three-dimensional digitization, Carullo Engineering uses the Artec Eva handheld 3D scanner, a lightweight and versatile tool that enables rapid acquisition of medium-sized objects, such as mechanical components or artistic elements, with high resolution and accuracy down to 0.2 mm.

The scans are processed with Artec Studio software, which offers advanced tools forautomatically aligning scans, removing superfluous data, and generating model-ready meshes. The software also allows CAD primitives to be adapted to identify and isolate key geometric features of the mesh, facilitating integration with reverse engineering workflows.

The reverse engineering process begins with processing the scans in Artec Studio, where major geometries are extracted and 2D sections are created that can be used as a basis for modeling. Next, the data are imported into SolidWorks, where parametric CAD models can be reconstructed directly from 3D meshes. This approach enables the creation of editable, production-ready models, simplifying the design of complex parts and improving process efficiency.

By integrating 3D scanning and reverse engineering, Carullo Engineering supports the concept of Digital Manufacturing, enabling a smooth transition from the physical to the digital world. This approach reduces development time, optimizes costs and improves product quality by offering solutions tailored to the specific needs of each industry sector.

With expertise and cutting-edge technology, Carullo Engineering serves as a reliable partner in transforming ideas and physical components into production- and innovation-ready digital models.
