What 3D scanning services does Delta XD provide?

We provide contract 3D scanning, dimensional inspection, CAD comparison and reverse engineering for single components, batches and recurring projects. Explore our scanning and inspection services and discuss the required outputs and tolerances.

Can you provide first article inspection and FAIR?

Yes. We can inspect the agreed drawing and CAD characteristics and prepare First Article Inspection Reports (FAIR). Tell us the reporting format, characteristics, datums and supporting evidence your customer requires. Discuss first article inspection.

Can you section a part to measure internal features?

Our wire EDM sectioning and cut-up service exposes internal geometry in suitable electrically conductive components. We can scan the complete part before cutting, measure newly exposed surfaces afterwards and relate the results for dimensional inspection or reverse engineering.

Do you provide ScanBox support and programming?

Yes. Our ZEISS ATOS ScanBox support and programming services include part programming, scan-path optimisation, inspection reporting, Kiosk workflows and scripting. We can support existing equipment or help develop a new measurement application.

Can we buy a ZEISS measurement system for our own team?

Yes. Explore our ZEISS measurement systems, including ARAMIS DIC, T-SCAN hawk 2, ATOS Q, ARGUS, TRITOP and PONTOS Live. Delta XD handles system selection, supply and project delivery, with training and support agreed around your team.

What should we send with an enquiry?

Tell us the part or specimen size, material, quantity, tolerances or expected movement, required outputs, location and deadline. A drawing, CAD model or photographs can help define the task; agree a secure transfer method for sensitive project data. Discuss your project.
