Reverse Engineering / Reverse Engineering Service
PMA Parts Reverse Engineering Support
Deliver accurate PMA parts reverse engineering support with scan-to-CAD conversion that produces usable manufacturing files from physical components.

Zagnat converts 3D scans of PMA-eligible parts into editable CAD models suitable for further engineering or documentation needs.
Scan-to-CAD Workflow
High-resolution scans are aligned, surfaced, and exported as STEP or IGES files ready for your review.


- Upload scan data or part photographs.
- Receive confirmation and file review notes.
- Model creation focuses on critical dimensions and features.
- Files are delivered for your approval.
Project Fit
Ideal for PMA parts where original drawings are unavailable and a clean CAD model is required for analysis or reproduction planning. Minimum project value is $200.
