Metrology uses scanning and advanced aerospace surfacing software to measure and model an object accurately. Computer Aided Three-Dimensional Interactive Application (CATIA) is the process that we use to do this.
The RE model, an equivalent circuit that can be used to predict performance, can be used as a reference to analyze surface deviations or to drive other processes.
Reverse Engineering Services for Aerospace and Defense
At SurvTech Solutions, we specialize in providing cutting-edge reverse engineering services for the aerospace and defense industries. Our team of experts uses advanced scanning technologies and computer-aided three-dimensional interactive application (CATIA) software to create highly accurate digital models of complex components and systems. This enables us to analyze surface deviations and drive other processes, such as manufacturing, simulation, and testing.
Accurate Digital Models for Reverse Engineering
Our reverse engineering process begins with advanced scanning technologies that capture the surface geometry of the object with high accuracy. We then use CATIA software to create a digital model that can be used to predict performance and analyze surface deviations.
This digital model, known as the RE model, is a powerful tool that enables us to identify areas where the surface deviates from the desired shape, allowing for corrective actions to be taken. By creating accurate digital models, we can help our clients in the aerospace and defense industries to improve the design, manufacturing, and testing of complex components and systems.

Digital Manufacturing Improvements
As digital manufacturing continues to become commonplace within the manufacturing world, designs also become more sophisticated and sensitive to fabrication tolerances. Manufacturers can accurately produce parts using CNC (Computer Numerical Control) machines, water jets, or additive processes.
When assembled, gravitational forces, temperature changes, and limits in manufacturing perfection stack lead to parts being unable to fit into the assembly.
Reverse Engineering using Metrology and Scanning Data
Reverse engineering is the process of recreating a nominal model derived directly from metrology and scanning data. This process enables designers to use a model representing the true as-built condition of the product driving the digital fabrication process.
Once a product is reverse-engineered, it can be interrogated or reproduced to help further designers and engineers evaluate their designs, manufacturing process, or product durability modeling.
