FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
What is reverse engineering?
Reverse engineering is the process of recreating a part based on a physical sample. It’s commonly used when original drawings or tooling are unavailable.
Can you reproduce castings without drawings?
Yes — we use 3D scanning and CAD modelling to rebuild the part virtually, create a new pattern, and cast the component to match the original.
What tools do you use for reverse engineering?
We use high-resolution 3D scanning equipment, CAD software and in-house pattern making to reverse engineer iron, steel and alloy parts.
Is reverse engineering suitable for heritage parts?
Absolutely. Our process is ideal for restoring architectural or infrastructure castings that are no longer in production.
