37% Lighter Trolley Cart for FleetPride — Validated in Ansys
FleetPride's axle trolley cart redesigned in Ansys — 37% lighter (210 lbs → 132 lbs) while maintaining full 1,000 lb rated capacity.
Defense organizations rely on professional 3D scanning to support sustainment, modernization, and replacement of obsolete components. Our engineers help create accurate engineering data for Technical Data Packages (TDPs), reverse-engineer legacy equipment, and develop digital engineering deliverables for military and government programs.
Common Defense Applications

Manufacturers use 3D scanning to improve quality, accelerate product development, verify tooling, and inspect finished parts. High-resolution scan data enables rapid comparison between manufactured parts and CAD models while reducing inspection time and improving overall production efficiency.
Manufacturing Applications

Automotive companies use 3D scanning throughout the product lifecycle—from concept development and prototype evaluation to production inspection and legacy vehicle restoration. Our engineers create accurate CAD models from physical parts to support manufacturing, aftermarket development, and vehicle modernization.
Automotive Applications

Industrial manufacturers frequently need accurate CAD models for machinery that was designed decades ago. We capture complex mechanical systems and convert them into modern engineering data that supports maintenance, redesign, replacement parts, and facility upgrades.
Industrial Applications

Energy companies use 3D scanning to document power generation equipment, turbines, pipelines, pressure vessels, offshore structures, and processing facilities. Accurate scan data supports inspection, maintenance planning, reverse engineering, and modernization initiatives.
Energy Applications

Medical manufacturers use high-accuracy scanning to develop products, inspect components, reverse engineer existing devices, and accelerate new product development while maintaining tight dimensional tolerances.
Medical Applications

Large-scale 3D scanning provides accurate digital documentation of buildings, industrial facilities, manufacturing plants, and infrastructure. Engineers use scan data to create BIM models, as-built documentation, facility layouts, and digital twins for renovation and maintenance projects.

A client needed a replacement rotor shaft for industrial equipment. Original CAD files, drawings, and specifications were unavailable.

In this case study, we aimed to create a full digital model of an engine casing. This casing had no current CAD files, outdated drawings, and undocumented shapes because of years of use and part changes.

We were recently tasked with recreating a fan housing using only the client’s original paper drawings.

This case study describes how we helped a defense customer turn a dense point cloud into a usable surface model. This model was a CAD surface for an F‑16 that could feed straight into simulation.
On behalf of JJET Enterprises, I just wanted to thank you and Cad / Cam Services again for the great job and quick turn-around time on the job that we sent you. We would recommend you and definitely will be doing business with you in the near future.

“CAD / CAM Services scanned > 6,000 maps for us and sold and installed a scanner and an EDMS system to our district. It has turned out to be a great investment for our district. We had several competitive firms compete on cost and scanning quality. CAD / CAM Services was the hands-down winner for myself, the engineering staff and the board. We are presently publishing the images on the internet and plan to continue using CAD / CAM Services They treated us fairly and delivered on-time and on-budget.”

Bo Daffin, CTA, RPA
Deputy Chief Appraiser of Central Appraisal District of Collin County
“RISD has been using CAD / CAM Services for years and has no need to consider anybody else. We have used them for scanning thousands of drawings and the install of our engineering/facilities management EDMS system.”

Greg Schulz
Richardson Independent School District
“CAD / CAM Services converted our plant drawings into AutoCAD and they turned out well. We will use them again.”

Phillip Schmidt, Jr.
District Plant Engineering Manager, UPS
“We purchased several Cyco’s AutoManager Workflow licenses from CAD / CAM Services and it has worked out well. We intend to add to this as budget allows”.

Nathan Jones

Our 3D laser scanning services capture precise surface geometry using high-resolution scan data. Laser scanning is ideal for reverse engineering, inspection, as-built documentation, digitization of legacy parts, and large-scale industrial scanning projects.
CAD/CAM Services provides professional 3D scanning services for parts, assemblies, tooling, aircraft components, facilities, and industrial equipment. Our scanning process captures accurate physical geometry and converts it into usable digital data for CAD modeling, inspection, documentation, and manufacturing support.
Scan-to-CAD services convert physical parts or scanned point cloud data into accurate 3D CAD models. CAD/CAM Services creates native CAD deliverables in CATIA, Siemens NX, Creo, SolidWorks, Inventor, STEP, IGES, and other required engineering formats.

We also use a hardened OwnCloud web file sharing platform for unlimited file transfers. We provide unique and very private Web Storage Portals, this also supports file syncing for extreme convenience for you. Because so much of our work is DOD or weapons design work, Security – and confidentiality is very important to us.
Yes. NDAs are a common part of our business. All data is yours – not ours, and treated as proprietary data and not for public consumption or use. Probably 70% of our work is under NDA agreements. We can generally get these signed within the day.
It depends on the scope of work:
Simple jobs have a lead time of 48 hours. Larger projects are delivered and invoiced weekly.
Yes, we did back in 2008. We started using Cad Perfect™ back in the early 1990s because all of our customers wanted only real Cad Perfect™ work. Back then the buzz words were terms like machine ready, or DXF Traceover and others.
The problem is, nobody wanted that. They all wanted drawings and models that they did not have to touch. Everybody wanted drawings just as if they hand redrew the work themselves.
Thus, Cad / Cam Services™ was the first company to start offering ONLY Cad Perfect™ work.
Yes we do, and have now for several years. In addition, we also support the industry specific plans as well.
It depends on the complexity of the scanned model and material properties. As, for example, it may be much more complicated to properly scan an object with a reflective surface, than a non-reflective surface. It also depends on three main factors:
Simple quick cell phone photos are worth a thousand words to us. To know for sure you can request a quote. It is of course, free – and treated as if an NDA is already in place.
Some averages:
Because so much of our business is Aerospace related, our scanning – and the completed CAD file HAS to be within ±.005” anywhere on that part, we never use consumer-grade scanners. The scanners we use start at $25,000 and go up to $700,000 (CT) per scanner.
At any given time, we have in excess of $ 5 million just in scanning hardware we use. In addition, a hidden factor of scanning on any system is the assembly and clean up of any scan. The rule of thumb is a 2-1 ratio. So even with our experienced scanning staff, if we spend one-hour scanning; we will then spend an additional two hours of clean up and assembly before our CAD group gets the Point Cloud file to simulate or reverse engineer.
A point cloud is thousands if not millions of data points located in space by X, Y, Z coordinates. Images of this nature are often captured with Faro Focus or Artec scanners that specialize in large-area scanning. Most likely you obtain building and territory plans in this file format.
A polygon mesh is a set of triangles located in the same manner. These scans are obtained with Artec, Creaform, Enscan and other handheld scanners. Parts and reverse engineering device scans are usually polygon meshes.
The scanners we use are as accurate as the industry offers – from anybody at any cost. We use Faro and Artec 3D scanners, in addition to Faro CMM type arms, including the Surveyor tables. Depending on what scanner we use:
