REVERSE ENGINEERING
Reverse Engineering applies the newest technology, like 3D laser scanners, to capture data from sample points. If the sample is used extensively, it can be re-engineered to the original designs intent. Our engineering team subsequently establishes new production drawings for our state-of-the-art manufacturing facility.
Our highly skilled Reverse Engineering and Quality Control team works together to bring our customer the most efficient part, that is best suited for the application.

To create quality technical manufacturing drawings for our customers, PPS utilizes the 3 F’s of engineering:
- Form, Fit, & Function
- Form: Develop a plan before the
manufacturing process is considered. - Fit: Determine specific requirements
including tolerances, surface finish
requirements, and material condition. - Function: Consider application conditions
(temperature, pressure, erosion, etc.) and
other parts used in the assemblies.
- Form: Develop a plan before the
