Reverse Engineering Webinar

How to Efficiently Convert Scan Data into Manufacturing-Ready CAD

🗓️ Thursday, May 21, 2026
🕰️ 1PM EST / 10AM (Duration: 1 Hour)

A common misconception about reverse engineering is a 3D scanner can instantly create a usable CAD model. In reality, 3D scan data is captured as point clouds or meshes—formats that aren’t readily editable for design or manufacturing.

In this upcoming webinar, we’ll uncover the truth behind common Scan to CAD myths and show what actually works. You’ll learn how to approach Scan to CAD in a practical way, without the complexity. We’ll demonstrate a proven workflow using QUICKSURFACE software to tackle real-world Scan to CAD challenges in manufacturing.

If you’re looking to simplify your reverse engineering process, reduce frustration, and cut down modeling time, this webinar will give you the clarity and tools to get there.

New LiDAR 3D Scanner

Meet Artec Jet Survey with Confidence

Quickly Build 3D Environments Anywhere in 3D

Jet is the newest addition to the Artec 3D scanner ecosystem. It is a fast mobile LiDAR mapping system that uses SLAM-based positioning and AI-driven automation to scan sites, facilities, and infrastructure in 3D. It delivers survey-level accuracy in minutes instead of hours.

You can combine scan data from other Artec 3D scanners (Leo, Ray II, etc.) to get the best out of each system. Artec Jet extends Artec 3D’s range from large-scale site capture to detailed component geometry. One seamless workflow that delivers precision exactly where it’s needed—efficiently and accurately.

• Scans Indoor and Outdoor: Entire buildings, tunnels, construction sites, or infrastructure
• GPS-Free Positioning: SLAM algorithms deliver positioning without satellites
• Very fast: Captures millions of data points per second
• High accuracy: Global accuracy up to ±10 mm precision
• Flexible: Can be handheld, mounted on a backpack, attached to a drone, and placed on a vehicle or robot
