With strong installed capacity in Portugal and Spain, NM3D supports companies from the product development phase to final quality control in production, offering advanced, reliable technical services adapted to industrial reality.

The solution or technology

X-Ray Inspection and Industrial Computed Tomography

Seeing beyond the surface

X-ray and industrial Computed Tomography inspection services enable analysis of the interior of parts and assemblies without any destruction, providing critical information that is not accessible through conventional methods.

These services enable companies to:

  • detect internal defects such as porosity, cracks or inclusions
  • validate internal channels and complex geometries
  • measure internal dimensions with high precision
  • analyze assembled components without disassembly
  • correlate defects with production processes

Dimensional metrology and quality control

Precision that supports decisions

NM3D provides advanced dimensional metrology services, ensuring reliable, traceable measurements aligned with the most demanding industrial requirements.

Metrology services include:

  • dimensional inspection of parts and assemblies
  • validation of first articles and pre-series
  • quality control in production
  • measurement of large parts
  • measurements in laboratory or directly at customer facilities

3D Scanning and Reverse Engineering

Transforming real parts into digital data

3D scanning and reverse engineering services enable capture of the real geometry of parts with high level of detail, even for large components, complex surfaces or hard-to-reach areas.

NM3D supports companies in:

  • reverse engineering of parts without CAD model
  • comparison between theoretical model and actual part
  • analysis of deformations, wear and geometric deviations
  • digital documentation of existing components

Additive manufacturing and industrial prototyping

From idea to functional part

In the area of additive manufacturing and 3D printing, NM3D provides industrial services with capacity to produce large parts, functional prototypes, small series and technical components.

Additive manufacturing services enable:

  • accelerate product development
  • validate geometries and functionalities
  • produce functional parts for real use
  • reduce initial industrialization costs

Large format production capability enables response to projects requiring scale, robustness and flexibility, differentiating NM3D in this type of service.

Complementary services to ensure operational continuity

In addition to technical services, NM3D provides:

  • programming and integration of measurement processes
  • accredited maintenance and calibration
  • specialized technical support, on-site and remote

This continuous support ensures that customers maintain performance, precision and reliability over time.
