A Fremont, California service reverse-engineers discontinued replacement parts through 3D scanning, CAD modeling, and custom 3D printing.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-02 issue.

Field notes

The workflow accepts a broken component, a surviving neighboring part, or even photos and approximate measurements, then turns the scan into an editable CAD solid rather than a simple surface copy. Material choice is tied to use: the page cites ASA for heat, Nylon for friction, TPU for sealing, and PETG for general use. The site currently has no documented project portfolio, but says before-and-after examples are planned.
