As there was no information other than the original engine, re-manufacturing was done using 3d scanning the original block, CAD modelling a virtual block, CAD modelling and 3D printing a sand mould, casting the block in a material similar to the original, and machining the casting to suit all the other retained engine components. To all intents and purposes – a clone

3D Probing is a fast and economical capture method. Data is exported as a .dxf for manufacturing techniques such as 2D laser cutting or machining. It’s as simple as that. For more information on 3d laser scanning or probing for your laser cutting or machining project Contact Us
3D Laser Scanning of the Mining Cutter Head with the purpose of re-lace the cutting picks, changing the spacing from 70mm to 40mm. A cutter head machine is a piece of excavating equipment consisting of a boom-mounted cutting head, a loading device usually involving a conveyor, and a crawler travelling track to move the entire machine…
‘Drogon’ from Game of Thrones uses 3D Laser Scanning The team from Gorilla Constructions met with the Wysiwyg3D engineers to find out how 3D scanning could be used on their next project. With a tight deadline looming the Game of Thrones star Drogon was the perfect ‘prop’ to use the latest in 3d technology. The more…
Advanced 3D inspection software from Geomagic coupled with optical scanning technology is helping Italy-based Scuderia Toro Rosso Formula 1 Racing Team improve the performance and reliability of its Formula 1 racing cars. “There’s no doubt that the use of Geomagic Control X (formerly Geomagic Qualify) has brought us a number of very real benefits,” says…
