Spare parts on demand with Reverse Engineering and Additive Manufacturing

Hello CATIA Users,

One crack in a component of a special machine is enough to cause the entire assembly line to shut down. A spare part is needed to get it running again but the original manufacturer is no longer in business and the digital model is nowhere to be found. 

How to do it on a short notice? Build a spare part with Additive Manufacturing!

From Reverse Engineering to Manufacturing, 3DEXPERIENCE offers the best tools to answer tight delays:

  • Starting with a 3D scan of the broken part, use Reverse Engineering to recreate the digital 3D model
  • Prepare printing instructions with machine selection, supports creation & laser paths computation
  • Consider post process such as NC program to achieve the right tolerances and quality

All those steps are done in the same collaborative environment ensuring agility, digital continuity & traceability, offering the keys to success and scalability.
