3D Laser Scanning

3D Laser scanning is a non-contact, non-destructive measurement technology that digitally generates 3D point cloud data, ultimately turning your physical parts/products into a digital representation of the physical object’s exact size. Our CMM-based laser and Portable Scanning Arm systems can capture an abundant amount of precision data(in comparison to some traditional methods).

Our experience in 3D scanning services ranges across a broad spectrum of industries. From Aerospace and Automotive scanning to Medical devices and supplies, we take care of 3D laser scanning parts that require high degrees of accuracy.

SPC Data Collection

An increasing number of customers are requesting independent capability studies for their projects—and for good reason. They recognize the value that SPC (Statistical Process Control) data collection brings to the table. This data plays a critical role in making informed decisions throughout the manufacturing process.

SPC data collection is essential not only within various divisions of manufacturing but also for vendors who rely on consistent, high-quality output. The insights gained from these studies help identify process variability, ensure repeatability, and drive continuous improvement. Whether it's for maintaining compliance, optimizing performance, or reducing scrap and rework, SPC data supports better outcomes across the board.

Reverse Engineering Services

At Glass Scale Metrology, we specialize in high-accuracy reverse engineering solutions. Whether you're missing CAD data or need a one-to-one match with an existing part, we can help.

Reverse engineering is the process of capturing and recreating existing components—often with improvements—for a more efficient or cost-effective result. Our team can digitize and reproduce complex parts and assemblies with precision.

Why Choose Reverse Engineering?

• No CAD or drawings for legacy/historical parts

• Ensuring a perfect fit for new product designs

• Documenting and replicating improved or modified parts

• Replacing worn, undocumented, or discontinued components

• Simplifying complex assemblies to reduce part count

Using state-of-the-art scanning and modeling technology, we’ve recreated everything from optical lens housings and critical tooling to entire engine blocks.

Featured Project:
A client needed to replace a high-performance endmill with no available design documentation. Before the tool wore out, we captured and recreated the geometry to ensure seamless replacement and continued operation.

N.I.S.T. Traceability

At Glass Scale Metrology, all inspection equipment and measurement reports are fully traceable to the National Institute of Standards & Technology (N.I.S.T.). This ensures our clients receive precise, reliable data backed by nationally recognized standards.

We partner exclusively with accredited calibration providers to maintain our equipment. Calibration records are meticulously kept and available for customer review at any time.

Traceability means more than just recordkeeping—it’s about confidence. Every measurement we perform is supported by a clear chain of documentation and defined measurement uncertainties, providing both documentation traceability and metrological traceability.

You can trust that your parts are being measured with accuracy, consistency, and full compliance with industry standards.
