3D Laser Scanning & Metrology Experts in the UK
At Qualis Engineering, we specialise in delivering precision-driven 3D scanning, metrology, and reverse engineering solutions tailored to the motorsport, automotive, aerospace, and marine industries. With over a decade of experience in cutting-edge manufacturing sectors, we utilise advanced optical metrology equipment to transform physical objects into highly accurate 3D digital models. Our portable systems achieve 0.030mm accuracy, enabling us to operate effectively in challenging environments while maintaining dynamic referencing and temperature monitoring. We focus on bridging the gap between design and manufacture, ensuring quality is embedded at every stage of production. Our services include first-article inspections, part-to-CAD comparisons, and non-destructive testing, alongside bespoke CAD design solutions from concept sketches to technical drawings.We also provide tailored training in geometric tolerancing, metrology tools, and operational quality strategies to enhance industry knowledge. Our recruitment solutions offer skilled quality inspection support for temporary or permanent placements, addressing workforce fluctuations. By prioritising quality, time, and cost efficiency, we help organisations streamline operations and reduce manufacturing waste. Our commitment to innovation and client-centric flexibility ensures we adapt to meet specific project requirements, whether for historic restoration, prototype modelling, or bespoke packaging design. With a proven track record in delivering high-precision engineering services, we aim to be a trusted partner in advancing design and quality assurance processes across the UK.

Services
3D Laser Scanning
Our 3D laser scanning services capture highly accurate digital models of physical components using portable optical equipment. With 0.030mm precision, we enable part-to-CAD comparisons, non-destructive testing, and reverse engineering for industries requiring exact replicas or design modifications. This technology supports applications from prototype modelling to historic preservation.
Metrology
We provide contactless metrology services for complex geometric features and freeform surfaces. Using equipment conforming to ISO17025 and VDI/VDE 2634 standards, we perform first-article inspections, part-to-part comparisons, and non-destructive testing. Our portable systems ensure precision in challenging environments, supporting quality assurance across manufacturing sectors.
Reverse Engineering
Reverse engineering converts physical parts into editable CAD models, preserving design intent for remanufacturing or modification. We extract data from 3D scans to create native CAD entities, enabling tooling design, interference analysis, and historic restoration. This service bridges legacy components with modern manufacturing processes.
CAD Design
From concept sketches to BS8888-compliant technical drawings, our CAD design services support product development across industries. We integrate reverse-engineered data or initial ideas into solid models, assemblies, and manufacturing documentation, ensuring designs meet functional and production requirements.
Training Courses
We deliver tailored training in geometric tolerancing, metrology tools, and operational quality strategies. Courses are designed for inspectors, designers, and manufacturing teams, focusing on practical skills like GD&T application, CMM operation, and quality management. Training can be conducted on-site or at local venues.
