The world's first online service platform for Converting 3D Scan to CAD models (Design for manufacturing & Analysis )
Upload Your 3D scans
Get An instant quote
Get3D cad files
The customer uploads the scanned images or point cloud data of the physical object they want to convert to CAD format to our website converscantocad.com
Our team of experts reviews the uploaded files and provides a quote for the project based on the scan complexity, quality, and end applications.
The customer reviews the quote and approves it to proceed with the 3D scan to the CAD modeling process.
We check if the customer has credit in their registered account to pay for the project. If the customer has enough credit, we proceed to the next step. If not, we ask customers add 3D hours..
If the customer doesn't have enough credit, we provide them with the option to recharge their account using various payment methods, such as credit card, PayPal, or bank transfer.
Our team of experts starts modeling the object using the appropriate software tools and techniques.
We provide regular updates to the customer on the progress of the modeling and any issues or questions that arise during the process.
Once the modeling is complete, we upload the final CAD models to our website for the customer to download and review.
The customer reviews the final models and approves them if they meet their requirements.
The project is considered complete once the customer approves the final CAD models.
The final CAD files are stored and backed up on our secure servers for future access by the customer or for any additional services required by the customer.
There are several 3D scan to cad modeling approaches that we use in 3D reverse engineering, each with its own benefits and drawbacks. We will look at four types of 3D reverse engineering modeling approaches: As-built modeling, Design Intent modeling, NURBS surface, and Hybrid Modeling technique.
We use as-built modeling as a 3D reverse engineering approach to create CAD models that closely resemble raw 3D scans. This method is particularly useful for replicating physical objects already used in the main assembly. As-built condition CAD models are perfect for 3D prototyping, manufacturing, mould development, and CAE applications. As-built condition models are highly accurate models but don't follow geometrical constraints.

We use the hybrid modeling approach when a 3D scan contains organic and prismatic shapes. We split the scan into two parts and individually modelled each using parametric and NURBS techniques. After creating the separate models, we combine them into a single hybrid model using a boolean operation. This technique is beneficial in industries such as toy manufacturing, where products often contain both organic and prismatic shapes. By using hybrid modeling, we can ensure that the resulting CAD model accurately represents the original object and can be used for further analysis, prototyping, tool development or manufacturing.
NURBS (Non-Uniform Rational B-Splines) surface is a popular 3D reverse engineering technique for creating complex and organic shapes from 3D scans. This method is known for its speed and accuracy compared to other surface modelling techniques in 3D reverse engineering. End surface or solid models made of NURBS will have patches instead of features like parametric cad models.
