Automotive Studies - Applications 3D

Previous Automotive Work

Throughout the years’ Applications 3D has accomplished many jobs for various automotive companies. These jobs include inspection reports created for interior components, exterior components, engine components, and more. Not only are we able to create inspection reports for your automotive parts but can also create CAD drawings from parts you no longer have the CAD for. A final sector of our automotive capabilities is the ability to take an existing part, reverse engineer it to a cad model, and then modify that part to meet your needs. Below are our automotive studies.

Conveniently located in the metro Detroit area of Michigan. Please contact us with any questions you have regarding our automotive work via our contact form or call us at (248) 853-7700.

3D Inspection of a Complex Headlight

Car headlights aren’t as simple as they appear to be. There is a lot of engineering involved in their manufacturing. This is so that they result in pleasant looks as well as attain the required light handling and reflection properties. Since the light flashed from a car’s headlights has to illuminate far away objects in the path of the car, there is extensive testing done on the light reflection properties of the headlight. The headlight consists of an injection molded part which adds to the problem of producing an accurate final part due to the inherent shrinkages and other variables in the molding process. This means the mold has to be near perfect…read more

Automotive Glass Reverse Engineered

When loading and unloading items into the bed of a pick-up truck it is typical for the rear glass to get damaged. So, an aftermarket automotive glass manufacturer took notice and wanted to develop and mass-produce an after-market product. To achieve their goal, the OEM automotive glass had to be reverse-engineered. Applications 3D was contacted to assist them with this task for the Toyota Tacoma… read more

Creating Aftermarket Automotive Parts

If a part is not made by the original manufacturer it is considered to be an aftermarket part. However, aftermarket automotive parts can range from near identical OEM replacements or be modified to suit a new purpose. When creating aftermarket automotive parts the OEM part must first be reverse-engineered to ensure proper part fitment. A customer reached out to us, Applications 3D, with a unique project of modifying an OEM automotive part… read more

Raminder did a fantastic job scanning some parts for me. VERY reasonable pricing for the quality of scan provided and the turn around time was ridiculously fast. 10/10 would recommend and will be using again!

The Applications 3D team is a pleasure to work with. They have provided our organization with 3D scanning, reverse engineering, and CAD model creation services. The pricing is great and they have quick turn around times.

I found Applications 3D online, wanting to get an item scanned accurately. Couldn't have been happier with their services. They were fast, great communications, and the end result was excellent. I will use them again in the future. This job was for an individual project and they did not hesitate with their services. It was also at a lower cost than I could find anywhere in my state. Highly recommend their services. Thank You Raminder-Applications 3D

Very professional and in depth and detailed with his work. You might find a cheaper source but not a better one.

I approached Applications 3D with an existing 3D scan file that I didn’t know what to do with. After speaking with Raminder over the phone, we scheduled an appointment same day to review the file. He looked at my file, and gave me a quote for his service - to produce a Step file that could be used to CNC a master mold from the shape that I had scanned. He was finished with the design in 1 week, but there was a slight issue which I brought to his attention, and he immediately worked on creating a solution, which was resolved by the end of that same day!! I honestly couldn’t be more happy with the result, and very much look forward to working together with Raminder & his company again for more 3D modeling work.
