Reverse Engineering Services

We provide reverse engineering services for industrial equipment where components are worn, damaged, or no longer supported by the original manufacturer.

​

Using field measurements, photos, and 3D scan data, we develop accurate CAD models and fabrication-ready drawings that allow parts to be rebuilt, modified, and returned to service.

When Reverse Engineering is Needed

​

Reverse engineering is typically used when:

  • Original drawings are unavailable or outdated

  • Components have worn beyond their original geometry

  • Equipment has been modified over time

  • OEM replacement parts are no longer available

  • Standards or technology have advanced, and modernization is required

  • Lead times for replacement parts are too long

What We Deliver

  • 3D CAD models of existing components

  • Fully dimensioned fabrication drawings

  • Design updates where needed to improve durability or manufacturability

  • Support for fabrication and field questions

All deliverables are created with manufacturing and installation in mind—not just nominal geometry.

Typical Applications

  • Rotating equipment components

  • Wire rope drums, cranes, and hoisting systems

  • Structural and welded assemblies

  • Legacy machinery with no documentation

  • Hydroelectric & industrial mechanical components

Focused on Buildable Results

The goal is not just to recreate a part, but to produce a design that can be reliably fabricated and installed under real-world conditions.

Where appropriate, designs can be adjusted to address wear patterns, improve service life, or simplify fabrication.

Have a worn or obsolete component that needs to be rebuilt?
Send a photo, scan, or existing information to get started.
