If you’re looking for a way to make your preproduction process easier while stepping up your competitive edge, CAI is the perfect partner for your business. We offer our customers competitive benefits such as 3D printing that allow for rapid prototyping. When it comes to the manufacturing process, access to cost-saving solutions and knowledgeable professionals creates a huge advantage. Our offerings give you that edge in your industry.
Proving Fit and Function
Our company uses Faro 3D scanners to grant our customers access to the latest technology, which provides the best scanning for potential 3D printing and rapid prototyping technology. It accurately scans objects with precision and easy accessibility. The Faro 3D Scanner is portable and convenient while maintaining accuracy as it scans. The product works by scanning the product for which the customer requires manufactured parts. The lasers in the scanner track the geometry and data of the product allowing us to create a 3D print file.
That’s how we prove that your product will fit your requirements and make your preproduction process easier.
After that, we use the data from the scanner to create a 3D print file to feed into a 3D printer. The printer creates a 3D prototype of your required manufactured parts with precise accuracy. The rapid prototype is now available for the customer to measure its functionality through evaluation. Our customers have the ability to touch tangible proof that their part will function correctly before investing the money into a project. This feature vastly increases the cost-saving benefits of the entire manufacturing process.
That’s how we prove your product will function accurately and efficiently and make your preproduction process easier.
Furthermore, the ability to rapid prototype allows for quick solutions. When we speed up prototyping, we speed up the process of getting your project to the market. We are very generous when it comes to working with our customers, allowing them access to our 3D scanners and printers. We use the scans and prints to design a rapid prototype that saves you money in the long run. Since we are a customer-centric company, we focus on finding the solutions you need. We are proud to provide solutions that allow you access to manufactured parts that surpass your expectations with competitive pricing and solutions.
Industry Specific 3D Scanning
Specialty Automotive
We enjoy supporting a wide range of specialty vehicle varieties, helping each industry find customized solutions to meet their unique needs. CAI works with limousine companies to scan standard vehicles and parts that have the potential to be transformed into specialty vehicles.
We take our Faro 3D scanner to the limousine company and are able to scan the standard vehicle. The limousine company then has the precise measurements and geometry of the vehicle, is able to take it apart, and create a body to fill the void. Also, we are able to prototype handles, panels and parts to fit the front and rear of the vehicle.
Additionally, we are proud to support emergency personnel with useful and safe vehicles. We use our Faro 3D Scanner to scan control boxes and dash applications to ultimately create a 3D geometry print so our customers can evaluate it. CAI offers the design-engineering support your company needs to create accurate rapid prototyping. Our Faro 3D Scanner will save your company money by providing data in advance of 3D printing. The printed example will in turn prove your manufactured parts and project will work precisely by offering a full prototype before production.
