Reverse engineering is the process of deducing design intent from an end product with little or no information about production procedures. On this project, our customer wanted a solid CAD model built from laser scanned data from an original part. It was also requested that some of the features found...

What Are The Benefits of Industrial CT Scanning?
Industrial CT scanning is a form of 3D scanning that leverages X-ray technology to yield three-dimensional images of both the interior and exterior of the item being scanned. Computerized tomography, or CT scanning, has been used for decades in medical imaging and also is highly beneficial to businesses that must...
True Position Gage: Update
We received the new true position gage from our machinist and couldn’t be happier! The new gage was constructed of hardened steel and will resist the effects of environmental corrosion which caused our customer’s previous gage to fail. The gage has passed the certification process with flying colors and has...
True Position Gage Design in CAD
This CAD model was designed during a recent reverse engineering job by NPC. One of our customers had a true position gage that had corroded and was no longer useful to them. They gave us the old gage and asked us to build a new one. The process started by...
Don’t Pop Your Top!
We get a variety of different types of jobs here at NPC. Here is one of our food packaging jobs: the salad bowl. We work closely with the quality departments of several food packaging vendors to ensure mating parts fit correctly.
