Tangent Solutions is a mobile 3D scanning, design, and engineering service that helps companies in a wide range of industries get products to market faster, more precisely, and with less overhead required.
As the premier reverse engineering and 3D scanning company in the nation, we leverage the latest in 3D laser scanning technology with our 15 years of CAD design experience to help you bring your ideas to life.
Our 3D scanning services utilize the latest in laser scanning equipment to scan your product and transform it into a physical 3D model with remarkable accuracy. Adding convenience, we can send a technician to your office, home, or job site, for a completely mobile 3D scan service.
Even if you aren’t near our Irvine, California location, no problem! As a leading provider of 3D scanner services, we serve manufacturing and design customers spanning the entire United States. Simply ship your product to us, and we will scan, render, and enter it into CAD software the same day it arrives. Our quick turn-around times are what make Tangent Solutions the clear choice over the competition.
Blue light scanners can capture existing physical objects into a digital model by using point clouds for light detection and laser triangulation. Lasers are sent out to hit reflective targets that send the light back to the camera, creating multiple data points in the software. Whatever the project size, our blue light laser scanner can take precise measurements to render it digitally—even large objects like entire buildings!
The 3D scan data we generate creates a mesh of points that can be used for exact measurements. Our high-precision scanners have a 3D laser scanner resolution of up to 0.02mm, giving you an unparalleled quality of detail. This digital model can then be manipulated in CAD software such as Solidworks. We can provide you with any file type needed for CAD, including STL, OBJ, STEP, STP, IGES, and XT.
Hiring in-house designers and engineers can be expensive. Our engineering expertise means our CAD design services can keep your costs down by working with you on a project-by-project or retainer basis.
Whether you need us to create an original CAD design or modify an existing project, we are here! We start by sitting down to uncover the full range of your engineering needs, including production, design, and functionality testing.
3D scan data can be delivered to your engineers and CAD designers in STL or OBJ format the same day we scan your item.
CAD data in the formats or file types you need. Common files include:
Need to hold your project in your hands? 3D printing from a 3D scan makes this possible. You’ll be able to analyze parts for manufacturing or rapid prototyping in record time.
3D scanning provides you with accurate data points for 3D rendering and CAD manipulation to discover innovative solutions.
3D laser scanning creates a digital map of high-accuracy data points to render a high-resolution CAD model before mass production begins.
