About ThinkScan Solutions
3D Scanning & Engineering Services
ThinkScan Solutions delivers professional 3D scanning, CAD reverse engineering, and inspection services across the UK and internationally. Built on decades of hands-on experience in 3D scanning and digital modelling, the focus is on transforming scan data into accurate, engineering-ready outputs for design, manufacturing, and quality control applications.
Based in Kent, ThinkScan provides high-precision 3D scanning and reverse engineering services across London and the South East, with UK-wide coverage.
From Physical Object to Digital Workflow
The service bridges the gap between the physical and digital world, supporting a complete workflow:
- Capture → 3D scanning of real components
- Interpretation → reverse engineering and data processing
- Application → CAD modelling, inspection, or production
- Training→ 3D CAD Courses
This integrated process allows clients to move efficiently from existing parts to fully usable digital assets.
- 3D Scanning
- CAD Reverse Engineering
- Inspection & Metrology
- Rapid Prototyping
Projects span a wide range of sectors, including automotive, aerospace, industrial design, mechanical engineering, biomedical, cultural heritage, footwear, and CGI/VR. Each project is approached with a strong emphasis on accuracy, surface quality, and manufacturability, ensuring reliable results for both engineering and visual applications.
Operations combine both on-site and in-house workflows, using advanced non-contact measurement systems to capture data directly at the client’s location or at the London/Dartford facility. This flexible approach allows efficient handling of components of all sizes, from small precision parts to large-scale objects and environments.
The workflow is based on a clear principle:
3D scanning captures geometry, while reverse engineering interprets it into usable, structured data. The result is not just a digital copy, but a controlled and accurate model ready for real-world applications.
For projects outside the UK, collaborations with a network of trusted partners ensure consistent standards and reliable delivery across different locations.
