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  • Original drawings are unavailable or outdated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.
