3D Scanning

At Airframe Designs, we transcend traditional engineering boundaries by integrating cutting-edge 3D scanning technology into our suite of services. Our advanced 3D laser scanner elevates the precision and efficiency of digital modeling for mechanical structures, offering more than just functionality—it provides a sophisticated solution to complex engineering challenges.

Our handheld 3D laser scanner is engineered for quick and precise measurements, setting a high standard for accuracy in the field of optical measurement. Merging the power of infrared and blue lasers, this lightweight device is engineered to adapt to various scanning needs. Whether it’s capturing expansive areas with the infrared laser, undertaking fast scans with blue laser crosses, executing fine details with blue parallel lasers, delving into deep-hole scanning with a single blue laser, or leveraging a sophisticated built-in photogrammetry system, our technology ensures your project’s requirements are met with unmatched precision.

Airframe Designs is not just about cutting-edge tools; we are a collective of highly experienced engineers specialising in design, analysis, certification, and additive manufacturing. Our expertise spans across critical sectors, providing engineered solutions for new designs, modifications, repairs, and reverse engineering. From major airlines and military fleets to VIP customer projects, our work in the aviation sector is complemented by significant contributions to defense, space, nuclear, marine, medical, automotive, and rail industries.

We excel in accommodating a wide range of applications – whether it’s supporting cabin interior upgrades, VIP configurations, system upgrades impacting airframe structures, or special mission product designs for sectors such as Aero-Medical, Police, and Search and Rescue.

At Airframe Designs, our 3D scanning service is more than a technological advantage. It is your partner in innovation, facilitating accurate and rapid prototyping, reverse engineering, and quality control. Our comprehensive approach ensures that from concept to completion, your project benefits from the highest standards of precision, efficiency, and reliability.

At Airframe Designs, our commitment to pushing beyond traditional engineering boundaries extends into the precise art of reverse engineering.

We offer bespoke reverse engineering services that transform existing physical components into accurate digital models.

This capability is crucial for replicating parts that are no longer manufactured, enhancing the functionality of current assemblies, or creating a foundation for further modifications.

Our 3D laser scanner is an integral part of our toolkit at Airframe Designs, offering a sophisticated blend of blue and infrared lasers for high-fidelity data capture. Achieving a capture rate of 1,350,000 points per second, our scanner delivers precision with an accuracy of 0.015 mm, and maintains this precision over larger areas with an additional 0.020 mm/m when paired with our photogrammetry kit.

This tool is pivotal across a spectrum of applications, from aerospace engineering to reverse engineering tasks, and is equally effective in sectors such as rail and beyond. The 3D laser scanner underpins our commitment to delivering meticulous and reliable engineering solutions.
