ZEISS Reverse Engineering
ZEISS Reverse Engineering provides you with everything you need.
Scan your components with ZEISS INSPECT or other software and import the STL or PLY data and ASCII formats into ZEISS Reverse Engineering. In just a few well-guided steps, a highly accurate CAD model is created that you can export in common formats such as IGES, STEP or SAT. Software that allows you to complete your tasks quickly and easily.

- Guided workflow
- High accuracy
- Effective functions
- Digital CAD twin
- For control geometries and organic models
- Efficient polygon editing
- Simple operation


Geometric components
Reverse engineering for geometric shapes? Simply export your data to ZEISS Reverse Engineering and start designing, combining, extracting and adjusting. The software guides you through the entire process and you create exactly the result you need.
Free-form surfaces
Use a wide range of functions to achieve maximum accuracy for free-form surfaces. To convert your data, use “Surface approximation to points”, for example. The software then guides you step by step through the process until your shape is created.


Organic shapes
Whether you want to create a CAD model with an organic shape, take further steps for reverse engineering or design – you only need a few steps. Watch the video to find out more.
Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
Wann verwende ich ZEISS Reverse Engineering?
The software is a cost-effective and efficient tool for reconstructing polygon data into a closed CAD model. The software is suitable for the reverse engineering of regular geometries as well as free-form, organic models.
We would be happy to advise you on your specific application – we look forward to hearing from you. Just send a short e-mail to 3d-scan@westcam.at.
Welche typischen Anwendungsfelder bedient ZEISS Reverse Engineering?
The software is very often used for the reconstruction of existing physical parts into a CAD model. A rigid link to the original polygon data is not absolutely necessary and geometric changes can be easily introduced. The possible applications are diverse and range from mechanical engineering applications, injection molding and metal casting to the reconstruction of sheet metal components and many other fields of application.
