Automotive
Direct Dimensions has frequently worked with the Automotive industry over the past 10 years. From scanning and digitizing of entire automobiles to analyzing and modeling individual engine components, Direct Dimensions has seen a full spectrum of applications in this industry that have benefitted from using our technology and experience.
Automotive Styling
3D laser scanning can accurately capture the fine details and curves of body panels and interior trim, and eliminate costly prototypes by starting with good data. By using computer modeling your parts can be mirrored to create a perfectly symmetrical matching part reducing reworking and fabrication time.
Performance
Whether you are trying to design a new bell housing to fit a stronger transmission or designing a new exhaust manifold to make more power, knowing your working envelope can reduce design time and cost. Have a hand ported part that you need an accurate replication of on a repeatable and scalable system? Let us create manufacturing models for you to increase your productivity.
Aftermarket Component Design
Upgrading parts that do not get the job done? Let us take the critical measurements to make sure your upgrades function and fit correctly.
Manufacturing Problem Solving and Inspection
Are your designed parts not working as they should? Let us use our Reverse Engineering tools to perform part inspections to compare to an established model. The output of this information can be displayed in easy to understand 3D color-based deviation models.
Accident Reconstruction
To better document an accident that may assist in legal proceedings, or to determine the cause of a specific accident, Direct Dimensions can laser scan and model the wreck and precisely represent the damage.
