ACCURATE 3D DIGITIZING SERVICE FOR MANUFACTURING

Ideas in 3D, located in the Los Angeles area, is your 3D Digitizing Service when you need to re-create, copy, scale, change or reverse engineer free form 3 dimensional (3D) objects or molds for manufacturing.

12 years ago, we recognized the promise of 3D digitizing, and began to use it to build plastic injection molds. We quickly learned that there were limitations in NURBS, software and hardware that made digitizing applications difficult. We began to develop our own proprietary hardware and software solutions for digitizing problems. When our digitizing software and hardware development investment became the major area of our personal and financial interest, we stopped making molds. Ideas In 3D is now dedicated to solving problems with free form 3D surfaces requiring 3D digitizing.

A Unique 3D Digitizing Service:

For Mold Makers, we use 30 years of mold making experience to apply 3D digitizing to models, masters, CAD, CAM and CNC files. Our proprietary software and hardware are the basis of our leadership in solving moldmaking problems related to 3D digitizing and associated CAD, CAM, and CNC files. We reduce our customers' costs by providing files ready for use or CNC machined free-form inserts, a service most 3D digitizing services cannot offer.

For Industrial Designers, Engineers and Tool Designers, we can help you get from free form 3D model or design to a CAD file or a CAM file that is ready for use.
