Introduction

Digital Echo provides reverse engineering services to support foundries and manufacturers needing to reproduce parts without existing drawings or tooling.
Our process combines advanced 3D scanning and digital modelling to recreate component geometry with exceptional accuracy, allowing parts to be reproduced directly as wax or polymer patterns for both investment casting and sand casting applications.

Scanning Technology and Accuracy

We use high-resolution 3D scanning systems capable of capturing complex surfaces and internal geometries with sub-millimetre accuracy.
Each scanned component is processed using advanced surface reconstruction software to create a precise digital model that can be refined, scaled, or mirrored as required.
The resulting data can be printed directly into casting wax or pattern materials, ensuring that each re-engineered part meets modern foundry tolerances and repeatability standards.

Benefits

Eliminates the need for original tooling or CAD models.
Accurately reproduces legacy or discontinued components.
Compatible with both investment and sand casting workflows.
Reduces lead times and costs compared to conventional remanufacture.
Creates permanent digital data for future use or modification.

Applications

Ideal for heritage and restoration projects such as classic automotive components, aerospace and defence legacy parts, or industrial equipment requiring replacement castings.
Supports the reproduction of complex geometries, thin-wall sections, and precision surfaces where accuracy and repeatability are critical..
