3D Scanning
Services

Have a part you want to copy, change, or build around?

DDA Maker Technologies provides 3D scanning services in New Jersey, capturing an object’s accessible surfaces as a digital mesh. Use the scan as a starting point for CAD reconstruction, replacement-part design, or a component that fits around the original.

Useful for curves and complex shapes that are hard to measure by hand.

From object to file to part

What do you need us to make?

A scan file, an editable design, and a printed part take different work. Tell us what you need back. We’ll help you choose the steps.

  1. Scan the object

    3D scanning

    We capture the surfaces the scanner can reach and process them into a mesh: a 3D file of the object’s shape. A scan does not reveal hidden insides or fill in missing pieces.

    Result

    A 3D scan file

  2. Rebuild or change it

    CAD design ↗

    Need to move a hole, replace a broken tab, or design a matching bracket? We can use the scan as a guide to draw a model you can edit. This is separate design work.

    Result

    An editable CAD model

  3. Make a physical part

    3D printing ↗

    Want a replacement or a test part? We can review the design for printing, choose a material, and plan fit checks. Printing and any changes needed are quoted as part of the project.

    Result

    A printed part

Before we quote

Can your object be scanned?

Material and finish

Shiny, clear, or very dark surfaces can be harder to scan. Send photos and tell us what the object is made of. We’ll discuss whether it needs surface preparation.

Broken or worn areas

A scan copies damage too. Point out cracks, worn edges, and missing pieces. Rebuilding those areas takes design work beyond the scan.

How closely it must fit

Tell us which holes, edges, or surfaces must line up with another part. We’ll review the measurements and fit your project needs before accepting the job.

Start with a few photos

Show us the object.
Tell us what you need.

Discuss your project

Photos from several sides. Include the underside and any damage.

Approximate size in mm. Length, width, and height are a useful start.

What you want to do with it. Get a file, change the design, make a replacement, or make something that fits around it.

Not sure which service you need? Describe the job. Contact us before shipping or bringing an object. We’ll confirm what we can provide and the cost before starting.

Based in New Jersey, we support projects across New York, Pennsylvania, and Connecticut, with other locations considered case by case.
