Gendraw selects the scanner and workflow according to the size, surface, environment, required accuracy and intended deliverable.
High-detail capture for suitable small-to-medium workpieces, supporting reverse engineering, product development and inspection-support workflows.
The achievable accuracy and capture method are assessed against the component, surface and required deliverable.
Spatial capture for factories, plants, warehouses, equipment layouts and structures where wider site context is required.
Survey planning, coverage and the appropriate level of accuracy are agreed for each environment.
Processing can support point-cloud, mesh, CAD, comparison or facility workflows, with the precise outputs and limitations agreed for each project.
Marker-assisted blue-light scanning captures complex geometry for suitable reverse-engineering, product-development and inspection-support workflows.
Analyse a STEP file
Upload one or more STEP files to calculate their overall sizes and approximate surface areas securely in your browser. The CAD files are not uploaded to Gendraw during this analysis.
Supported formats: .step and .stp. Maximum size per file: 20 MB. You can upload more files in separate selections without losing those already listed.
Privacy: analysis happens on this device. The selected STEP files are not transferred to the website server.
You may correct the detected measurements before costing. Changes affect the budget only and do not alter your CAD file.
Each file is measured separately. The dimensions above describe the largest uploaded component and the surface area is the combined total for the complete batch. Measurements are calculated from tessellated representations and are suitable for initial budget planning only.
Field visualisation helps confirm scan positions and coverage across complex industrial environments before the captured data is processed into the agreed project deliverables.
Enter the approximate overall dimensions and project details to receive an immediate, non-binding budget cost.
Capture physical geometry as a reliable starting point for CAD development.
Prepare scan data for comparison and dimensional review using an agreed project method.
Document production environments for layout, retrofit, planning and coordination work.
Turn processed scan data into usable models suited to the required downstream task.
Repair or prepare suitable mesh and model data for prototyping or manufacturing workflows.
Capture complex spaces where manual measurement alone would be inefficient or incomplete.
Share the size, environment and intended use. Gendraw can help define a suitable capture plan.
