Contract inspection is the best way to verify that your product was manufactured in exact regards to its blueprint or computer-aided design (CAD). Contract inspection is used in a variety of fields, like automotives, food, healthcare, aerospace and plastics. In order to ensure the highest quality of goods, these fields rely heavily on this laboratory-monitored [...]

Basics and Uses of Reverse Engineering
Reverse engineering has become increasingly popular with the use of computer-aided design (CAD). It can be used with mechanical devices, computer software, binary software techniques, integrated circuits, smart cards or military applications.
According to Wikipedia, reverse engineering is the process of discovering the technological principles of a device, object or system through analysis of its structure, [...]
3D Scanning and the Film Industry
3D scanning has become not only popular but imperative for respected mainstream film. 3D scanning is analyzing a real-world object or environment to collect data on its shape and/or appearance. The data can then be used to construct three-dimensional, digital models. Scenery and characters are some examples of the effects that can be enhanced while [...]
Glass is Out and Plastic is In
As many baby boomers may have noticed every time they go to the store to buy their favorite soft drink, the bottling industry has recently made a big leap from glass bottles to plastic bottles. As it turns out, plastic is cheaper, easier to produce and you can create better looking designs. This is perfect [...]
3D laser scanning to conduct tests for design, materials and performance of parts
We are often asked if 3D laser scanning can be used to conduct tests for design, materials and performance of new or existing parts…
Laser scanning provides high resolution 3D data, so very accurate digital models of a product or area can be made to virtually re-create it with exact dimensions. In order to get meaningful [...]
The Applications of 3D Scanning in the Field of Dentistry
The process of non-contact 3D laser scanning is heavily relied upon by dentists across the nation. Because of the capabilities of 3D Scanning, organic shapes can be scanned without contact and then the data from the scan helps to create CAD models, which can be used for a number of purposes in dentistry. There are [...]
Outsourcing vs. Purchasing Equipment for Contract Inspection
Contract inspection is relied upon by a number of industries across the nation. Aerospace, automotive, food, healthcare, and plastics are the most common industries that depend heavily upon this advanced technology in order to ensure the quality of their goods. Depending upon the size and scope of your business, you can either purchase your own [...]
