ReverseEngineering.com has announced that its ScanToCAD Add-In is now an Autodesk certified app for Autodesk Inventor 2026.
The ScanToCAD app helps engineers and manufacturers to perform real-time 3D scanning, probing, modelling and inspection workflows entirely within the Inventor environment, eliminating the inefficiencies of external processes and data translation.
“Receiving Autodesk Certified App status for Inventor 2026 reinforces our commitment to delivering the most advanced and reliable reverse engineering tools in the industry,” said ReverseEngineering.com CEO Braxton Carter. “No other add-in delivers direct probing, scanning, and modelling within Inventor at this level.”
The ScanToCAD Add-In for Inventor offers universal hardware compatibility, including Faro, Nikon, Leica, Hexagon, Romer and MicroScribe hardware.
The software allows Inventor native data, bringing in the scan data to be edited directly in Inventor’s parametric feature tree, including large, complex datasets.
Inventor users can now directly integrate devices like the Faro Arm and Hexagon Absolute Arm for on-the-fly 3D measurement and reverse engineering, leveraging the full parametric power of Inventor in scan-driven workflows.
For hardware developers, ReverseEngineering.com has also announced that its API & SDK is now available, allowing 3D scanning equipment manufacturers to enable CAD-native applications for designers and engineers, including the growing market of Inventor professionals.
