Reverse Engineering

Reproduce any part exactly, even without the original drawings.

Most reverse engineering problems start the same way: a part exists, it needs to be manufactured or replaced, and the documentation that should make that possible is incomplete, lost, or was never created. The original supplier is gone, the drawings are missing, or the part came from an overseas source that never shared internal specifications. What remains is the physical object, and the question is how much information you can extract from it.

Industrial CT extracts all of it. A single scan produces a complete three-dimensional record of every internal and external feature in a part, at the dimensional precision reverse engineering requires. Internal channels, wall thickness, feature positions, and geometry that would require destructive sectioning to measure by any other method are captured intact, in full, without altering the part. That record becomes the foundation for a CAD model, a manufacturing specification, or a supplier qualification package.

Using Voyager, Lumafield’s browser-based inspection platform, engineers can generate a mesh from an industrial CT scan of an existing part.
Automotive components like this windshield wiper assembly can be reverse-engineered based on precise internal measurements of an industrial CT scan.

The problems CT solves here are supply chain and production problems as much as engineering ones. Aerospace and defense manufacturers use CT to recover geometry for legacy components where original drawings no longer exist and the part must be reproduced to keep aging platforms operational. Automotive teams use it to reshore parts from overseas suppliers who never provided complete internal specifications, producing domestic manufacturing documentation from the part itself. Medical device engineers use CT to document the internal geometry of existing instruments and implants before design updates, creating a baseline that captures what was actually built rather than what was originally specified. Electronics and consumer packaged goods teams apply the same approach to reproduce packaging tooling, connector geometries, and enclosure designs where internal structure determines fit and function.

Lumafield's platform takes the scan data through to a usable output. Voyager generates meshes from CT scans that can be exported into CAD workflows, measured against tolerance requirements, and shared across engineering and manufacturing teams without manual transcription of dimensions.

Legacy part recovery

When a part is no longer supported by its original manufacturer and drawings don't exist, CT is the fastest path to a manufacturable specification. Every internal and external feature is measured from the physical part, producing a dimensional record accurate enough to tool from. For aerospace and automotive teams maintaining aging platforms and vehicle fleets, this capability is the difference between keeping a system operational and grounding it for lack of a reproducible part.

Reshoring from foreign suppliers

Parts sourced internationally often come without complete internal documentation. When supply chain risk, lead time, or geopolitical exposure makes reshoring a priority, CT provides the internal geometry data that makes domestic manufacturing possible without cooperation from the original supplier. The part itself becomes the specification.

Scan-to-CAD for complex internal geometries

External measurement captures surfaces. CT captures everything: internal channels, enclosed cavities, wall thickness at every point, and feature relationships that only exist inside the part. For components with internal geometry that determines function, such as cooling passages, fluid channels, and press-fit interfaces, CT produces the complete dimensional dataset that scan-to-CAD workflows require. Athletic equipment and medical device engineers use this capability to document complex organic geometries in molded and cast components where external measurement alone leaves critical features undefined.

What’s a Rich Text element?

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
