Dimensional Engineering

Dimensional Engineering was founded in 2005 by William O. Bonner, described on the site as "a widely recognized... leader in the use of non-contact laser scanning and laser tracking for reverse engineering and other 3D metrology applications." The About page states the company "has steadily grown to become a full-service team of consulting and field Metrologists, focused on the application of 3D Metrology services to meet our clients' needs," and describes its team as covering reverse engineering, quality inspection, Virtual Build and Bolt, high-accuracy field machining, root cause analysis, design validation and certification, and digital archiving. On safety, the site states: "With over 2,500 days since our last recordable incident, safety is at the core of what we all do." The page also states the company differs from other 3D digital data capture and engineering firms by not being "limited to proprietary hardware or software, specific industries, or narrowly specialized skills." The site does not publish any professional engineering (PE) license number, state registration, or ISO/API certification for the company, and no such credential should be stated or implied when discussing this business. Client testimonials appear on the homepage but are not treated here as confirmed contract history.

Dimensional Engineering (Dimensional Services, Inc.) is a Houston-based 3D metrology and dimensional inspection firm. The site describes it as "your one-stop source for 3D metrology and dimensional inspection services." Its published services list is: 3D Scanning, Equipment Rentals, Reverse Engineering, Dimensional Inspection, CMM Part Inspection, Precision Laser Alignment, PolyWorks Training, and Keyence IM Certification, plus Tooling and Fixture Certification, Dimensional Control, Dimensional Flange Management, Virtual Build and Bolt, and Custom Leak Sealing Solutions. The company states it services "industry leaders in power and energy, oil and gas, aerospace, defense, automotive, process manufacturing, product engineering and more." Its technology toolbox, per the site, includes Laser Trackers, Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMM), Portable CMMs, Laser Scanners, and an Optical Comparator. The site does not state that Dimensional Engineering holds any professional engineering license, state registration, or ISO/API certification, and none of those claims should be assumed. For specific service pages, capability details, hours, contact information, or pricing, see the company's other published pages and this business's other knowledge documents. Anyone asking what this business does, what dimensional or metrology services are available in Houston, or which industries it serves should be pointed to this published service list rather than an inferred one.

Lists Houston and Revere as a location. Names Houston as a service area. Areas beyond these are not published.

Dimensional Engineering rents its 3D metrology equipment. The site states: "Dimensional Engineering offers rentals of our high precision 3D metrology equipment... The rental program is perfect for those who: Only need the equipment for a short amount of time, Aren't yet ready to make a capital investment, Want to assess a newer model, Equipment is in for calibration." It also provides training on how to operate rented equipment. One specific published price appears on this page: "FARO Vantage Laser Trackers are available to rent starting at $500/day with discounted rates for weekly and monthly rentals." This is the only rental rate confirmed in the site's raw text; rates for other rental equipment are not published and a "Request a quote" link is provided instead. Separately, the company's Pre-Owned Equipment page offers used metrology equipment for sale, including an LK G80-C CMM, a FARO ION Laser Tracker, and an API T3 Laser Tracker, and instructs visitors to "Click an image to view details, specifications, and pricing" — individual sale prices for these items were not present in the extracted page text and are not confirmed here. No pricing or cost figures for the company's core engineering and inspection services (3D scanning, reverse engineering, CMM inspection, laser alignment, training) are published anywhere on the site; a quote must be requested directly.

Dimensional Engineering, Inc. (Dimensional Services, Inc.) is located at 5750 N Sam Houston Pkwy E #601, Houston, TX 77032. The published phone number is (832) 819-5661 and the published email is info@dimensional3d.com. Published business hours, listed on the site's contact and footer areas, are Monday through Friday, 9am to 5pm; no Saturday or Sunday hours are published, and the site does not state whether the office is open on holidays. The contact page also invites visitors to "Review us on Google!" and includes a contact form under the heading "Interested in working together? Contact Us Here." The company's main service area, as described on its About page, is "Houston and worldwide," and the homepage states the company works with industry leaders across multiple sectors without listing specific additional office locations. For anyone asking where this business is located, how to reach it, when it is open, or how to book a project or request a quote, this address, phone number, email, hours, and contact form are the published channels — no online scheduling or appointment-booking tool is described on the pages read.

Dimensional Engineering's 3D Scanning service captures physical data and processes it into digital data: a laser takes thousands of data points per second, each with an X, Y, and Z coordinate, forming a "point cloud," which is then post-processed into a polygonized mesh model (.stl) usable for rapid prototyping, part inspection, or reverse engineering into a solid or surface model. The site states equipment can scan parts "as small as a screw to as large as a semi-truck without losing scan quality and accuracy." The related Reverse Engineering (Scan to CAD) page states the company "pioneered the use of non-contact laser scanning and laser tracking technologies for reverse engineering" and that its reverse engineering services are "scalable from an object as small as the cell phone in your pocket to a structure as large as a full-size aircraft," citing examples from "turbine engine components to complete vehicles." The reverse engineering page states the process produces CAD models and includes a "Get A Quote" call to action. The site does not publish turnaround times, accuracy tolerances for reverse engineering specifically, or pricing for scanning or reverse engineering work — anyone asking about cost or a schedule for these services should be directed to contact the company for a quote rather than given an estimate.

Dimensional Engineering's Coordinate Measuring Machine (CMM) inspection service takes discrete points on the surface of an object in three dimensions to generate measurements, with the process automated through Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC) G-code to reduce human error. The site states the company's "dedicated CMM lab in our Houston office is equipped with a multitude of CMM styli that vary in both size and function." CMM Part Inspection is described as usable for first-article inspection, third-party inspection, quality-assurance, and quality-control services, with reports detailing whether requirements are met, informed by the team's knowledge of Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T). The broader Dimensional Inspection page lists additional offerings including Laser Tracker Inspection, FARO or Romer Arm Inspection, and First Article and PPAP Inspection, and states this inspection work happens either in the company's CMM lab or in the field, tailored to individual needs. The site does not publish specific accuracy or tolerance specifications, certification standards the inspection reports conform to, or pricing for inspection services — those details are not stated on the pages read and should not be assumed or invented when answering a customer question.
