See Every Detail. Solve Every Problem.
High-precision inspection and reverse engineering for PCBs, stencils, emulsion screens, phototools, and complex electronics.
Precision Inspection & Reverse Engineering for Complex Electronics
For 30+ years, ScanCAD has helped manufacturers, engineers, and repair teams see more, solve more, and waste less.
Our systems turn high-resolution optical scans into powerful data you can trust — for inspection, measurement, troubleshooting, and complete PCB reverse engineering.

What we do
Reverse Engineer Any PCB
Recreate complete manufacturing data — even from old, unsupported, or damaged circuit boards. We capture every trace, via, and layer, producing clean CAD files and documentation compatible with all major EDA tools.
Stencil & Screen Inspection
Catch problems before they hit production. Quickly verify aperture size, position, and quality for laser-cut, e-form, emulsion, and hybrid stencils or screens.
Automated Optical Inspection & Measurement
Instantly inspect and measure flat parts with micron-level accuracy. Detect defects, verify features, and compare parts against golden data — all in seconds.
Process Verification
Ensure incoming PCBs, stencils, and flat parts match your specifications. Ideal for high-mix manufacturing and environments where quality and repeatability matter.
Services that go further
PCB Reverse Engineering Services — Done-for-you extraction of layout, layers, schematics, and full manufacturing packages.
Quality & Dimensional Analysis — Independent confirmation of critical features across boards, films, stencils, and other flat parts.
Failure Analysis — Pinpoint shorts, opens, overheating and layer-to-layer faults — even deep inside multilayer boards.
Obsolescence & Redesign Support — Replace discontinued parts, replicate legacy assemblies, or strengthen existing designs.
Dataset Modernization Services – Digitization and modernization of legacy films, PDFs, and original artwork into accurate, clean, and fully usable digital datasets for long-term access, analysis, and reuse.
