Let us help. 3D scanning and digitizing services, using the latest portable CMM's and Laser scanning technologies. 3D Digitizing and Laser Scanning is the rapid process of measuring a physical object and creating an accurate 3-Dimensional model. This process can be used for Reverse Engineering and/or Inspection of everything from simple to complex shapes as well as for design analysis. Today's manufacturing environment is extremely competitive, and these technologies allow companies to achieve a variety of important advantages over their competitors such as being first to market, with better designs and fewer prototypes thus resulting in greatly reduced costs and larger profit margins. B3-D has a wide variety of scanning hardware and software solutions to meet your needs including:     Hardware  Immersion MicroScribe  RSI MicroScan Laser  Romer Portable CMM's  Perceptron Laser Scanner  ATOS White Light Scanner  Leica Laser Trackers  Leica Total Station Software  Catia  DezignWorks  Power Inspect  PolyWorks  SolidWorks  Spatial Analyzer  Rapidform  Rhinoceros  Verisurf
Rapid Prototyping   Need parts fast? Let us make them for you with our Dimension SST 1200 3D printer. Test form, fit. function, with ABS prototype parts. Fused Deposition Modeling (FDM) is a solid-based rapid prototyping method that extrudes material, layer-by-layer, to build a model. ABS material is melted and then extruded through a specially designed head onto a platform to create 3D parts layer by layer. Completed parts can be milled, drilled, sanded, painted, and even electro-plated to make accurate working parts form your CAD models.	Inspection Services Quality Control an issue?
