Scanning and CAD Modeling Lenses.Lighting

For critical lighting applications, IIA has extensive experience scanning, modeling, and verifying lens geometries.

Accurate Data for Correct Lighting

Tell us what you need to accomplish and we will develop a process to get the results that you need. Rapid, accurate results are produced when your internal resources are unable to support the demand. With tremendous capacity, our multiple locations can be an extension of your own metrology lab. Your project will be personalized - managed by a highly trained individual with whom you will have a direct line of communication.

Story-Worthy Engineering Services

Built for responsiveness.

Our Engineering group strives to provide services worth telling others about. We've structured our entire operation to be responsive to your needs – from precision equipment to one-off widgets; we strive in every way to provide story-worthy service.

To take you to the next step.

When you begin a project with us, we'll want to know your stated and unstated project needs. We value making and keeping aggressive commitments to help you get to the next step in your project. You’ll know the accuracy of the CAD model we provide by attending a live on-line review of the CAD geometry compared to the scanned part. With equipment and skills specifically developed for precision components, we’ll find the best approach to completing your project.

Scanning Outputs

Point Cloud

Raw 3D Scan Data (.txt, .asc)


Generated by all 3D scanning technologies, raw geometric data is collected as a point cloud. This is the first step in every project.

Polygons

Raw 3D Scan Data with a polygonal wrap (.stl)


Neutral file primarily used by the 3D printing industry.

Analysis

2D Visual Report (.pdf)


3D Interactive Report (.pwzip)


Point cloud data is overlaid to an existing CAD model or scan data of another part to show deviation. Used for rapid design verification, tooling validation, and first article inspection.


Referred to as a Deviation Analysis, Comparative Analysis, Computer Aided Inspection (CAI) or Verification (CAV), or Color Map. Reports can also be manipulated to show specific dimensional call outs or FAIs. We call this a "CAV Plus".

Modeling Outputs

Native Parametric Formats

Models developed in your native CAD platform. Constructed with a fully functional design tree, robust models are built for ease of editing.

NURBS File Format

Best for modeling organic shapes that do not need to be edited. Surface or solid file output (.igs, .stp)

All Reverse Engineering and Modeling project customers receive a Live Model Review at project completion.
