What We Offer

Professional Metrology Services

Using handheld portable structured light scanning equipment, WAGNUM delivers a full range of on-site metrology services — from single-part inspection to large-scale facility documentation.

🔬

Dimensional Inspection

Full-surface comparison of manufactured parts against nominal CAD geometry or engineering drawings. Identify dimensional deviations, verify tolerances, and document results for incoming inspection, final acceptance, and supplier qualification.

Part Inspection Tolerance Verification
📋

First Article Inspection (FAI)

Comprehensive first-article documentation verifying that your production process can consistently produce parts conforming to all engineering requirements. Accelerates new part and supplier approval with thorough dimensional reporting.

Supplier Qualification Production Sign-Off
🔄

Reverse Engineering

Capture the precise geometry of legacy parts, tooling, fixtures, or molds with no existing CAD data. We generate high-quality point clouds and polygon meshes that your engineering team or our partners can convert into accurate, fully editable CAD models — ready for redesign, manufacturing, or reproduction.

🏗️

As-Built Documentation

Create accurate 3D records of existing structures, equipment, piping, or facilities as they actually exist today. Essential for facility planning, retrofit design, and maintaining current documentation for aging infrastructure. Eliminates measurement errors in engineering and design work.

Point Cloud Plant Documentation Facility Planning
⚙️

Assembly Fit & Alignment Verification

Verify that mating components will assemble correctly before committing to final assembly. Identify interference conditions, validate clearances, check datum alignment, and confirm that complex assemblies meet design intent — catching problems before they become costly rework or field failures.

About WAGNUM

Metrology That Comes to You

WAGNUM is an independent, Portland-based 3D scanning and metrology services company built on a straightforward principle: precision dimensional measurement should happen where your parts are — not somewhere across the country. We bring professional-grade structured light scanning equipment directly to your facility, so you get faster results, zero shipping risk, and no disruption to your production schedule.

  • Handheld Portable Equipment

    We operate professional handheld structured light scanning systems — the same class of technology trusted by aerospace and precision manufacturers — capable of capturing complex surface geometries quickly and accurately in real-world production environments.

  • No Shipping. No Downtime. No Guessing.

    Your parts stay where they are. WAGNUM eliminates shipping risk, transit damage, lead time, and the uncertainty of sending critical components off-site. We schedule around your production calendar and work within your facility's safety and access requirements.

  • Pacific Northwest Local

    Based in Portland, Oregon, with rapid response throughout the Metro area and project-based travel across Oregon, Washington, and Idaho. We're in your time zone, familiar with regional industry, and available when you need us.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

New to on-site 3D scanning? Here are answers to the questions we hear most often.

How accurate is structured light 3D scanning?

Portable structured light scanners operate in the sub-millimeter range — typically 0.02–0.05 mm point accuracy under controlled conditions, making them well-suited for dimensional inspection and quality control applications in manufacturing and aerospace environments.

How long does an on-site scan take?

Scan time depends on part complexity, size, and the number of components. A single medium-complexity machined part may take 1–2 hours including setup and data processing. Larger jobs, as-built captures, or multi-part inspection runs are scoped individually. We'll estimate time requirements as part of your quote.

Do you need CAD data to perform an inspection?

Not always. For dimensional inspection we compare your part to nominal CAD geometry, so a CAD file is helpful. For reverse engineering or as-built documentation, we work without existing CAD — that's the point. We can also work from drawings alone for basic dimensional checks.

What size parts can you scan?

Handheld structured light systems are versatile — we can scan parts ranging from small machined components (a few inches) up to large assemblies, vehicles, equipment, or architectural features. Very large structures may require multiple registration setups, which we account for in scoping and quoting.

What deliverables will I receive?

Standard deliverables include a professional PDF inspection report. Depending on your project, we also provide point cloud files, 3D mesh/STL data, and files in STEP, IGES, or other formats needed for your engineering workflow.

Do you serve clients outside Portland?

Absolutely. Our primary zone is the Portland Metro area, but we serve clients throughout Oregon, Washington, and Idaho. We also travel for larger projects beyond those boundaries — just let us know your location and we'll include any travel in your transparent quote.
