Conversion & Reverse Engineering
PDF to CAD conversion services
Legacy PDFs, scans and paper drawings redrawn as native, editable CAD files.
The problem
Some of your product line only exists as scanned drawings or PDFs. Every change means redrawing by hand, and nobody can reuse the geometry.
What we do
- Redrawing from PDF, scans and paper prints
- Output as native 2D (DWG) or 3D (SOLIDWORKS) files
- Your title block, layers and standards applied
- Flags for unclear dimensions or conflicts in the source
What you get
- Native DWG or SOLIDWORKS files
- A list of source issues found during conversion
You own the deliverables, in native files, once paid. Your engineers review and approve all work.
Good fit when…
- Drawings exist only as PDF or paper
- You want to bring an older product line into your CAD system
- You plan to automate products that have no native files
How it works
How a project runs
Step 1: Scope
A call, then a written Statement of Work with scope, schedule and price.
Step 2: Kickoff
You share standards, templates and files. We confirm the plan.
Step 3: Work overnight
Send work at the end of your day. Review it at the start of the next.
Step 4: Review weekly
Weekly alignment against the SOW. Anything off-scope is fixed free.
Questions about PDF / Paper to CAD
Is the conversion traced or redrawn?
Redrawn. Files are built as clean, dimensioned CAD, not traced images, so they can be edited like any other drawing.
