Recreating obsolete and undocumented components to original specification — using precision measurement, CNC machining, and EDM capability. No drawing required.
When original drawings no longer exist, suppliers have disappeared, or components are no longer manufactured, Bradbri’s reverse engineering service is the solution. Our engineering team uses advanced measurement techniques to accurately capture the dimensions, geometry, and material properties of your existing component — then recreates it to original specification using our precision CNC machining and EDM capabilities.
From legacy mining equipment and obsolete industrial machinery to discontinued military vehicle components, we have successfully reverse engineered and recreated components that clients believed were impossible to replace. No drawing required — just bring us the part.
When original components are no longer manufactured and suppliers no longer exist, we measure, recreate, and manufacture the part to original specification — no drawing required.
Request a QuoteKeep ageing but critical machinery running — we reverse engineer and recreate parts for legacy industrial, mining, and defence equipment that is no longer supported by the original manufacturer.
Request a QuoteReverse engineering of discontinued or obsolete military and armoured vehicle components — recreated to original specification using advanced measurement and precision machining.
Request a QuoteUsing precision micrometers, verniers, dial indicators, and gauge blocks, our team accurately captures every dimension and feature of your component before manufacture begins.
Request a QuoteCritical industrial machinery breakdowns don't wait — we reverse engineer broken or worn components to get your production line or equipment back up and running as quickly as possible.
Request a QuoteWe don't just copy — we improve. Where the original component had design weaknesses, our engineering team can redesign and optimise while still maintaining full compatibility.
Request a QuoteNo drawing required — bring us the part and we'll take it from there.
When precision is non-negotiable, experience matters. Bradbri has spent decades engineering high-reliability mechanical components for defence, mining, and heavy industry — industries where every tolerance, every material specification, and every component is critical to the performance and safety of the systems they support.
Whether you need a reverse engineered obsolete component, a custom prototype developed from scratch, or a full production run of precision mechanical assemblies, Bradbri has the capability, the equipment, and the commitment to deliver to your exact specification — on time, every time. When you choose Bradbri, you choose an engineering partner that takes your requirements as seriously as you do.
From prototype to production, our team brings decades of precision engineering experience to every project. Tell us what you need machined, and we'll bring the equipment, the expertise, and the tolerances to match.
Reverse engineering is the process of recreating an existing component without a drawing. Our engineering team uses precision measurement equipment — micrometers, verniers, dial indicators, and gauge blocks — to accurately capture every dimension and feature of the original part. We then manufacture a new component to those exact captured specifications using our CNC machining and EDM capabilities.
No drawing is required. Simply bring us the original component — or send it to our Boksburg facility — and our engineering team will measure, document, and manufacture a direct replacement to the original specification. No drawing, no problem.
We reverse engineer any component that falls within our CNC machining, CNC turning, or EDM wire cutting capability — including shafts, gears, bushes, housings, brackets, driveline components, steering components, and complex multi-feature parts for defence, mining, industrial, and commercial vehicle applications.
Yes. Where the original component had design weaknesses that caused premature failure or poor performance, we can redesign and optimise the component while maintaining full compatibility with the original application — delivering a better part than the one it replaces.
Lead time depends on the complexity of the component and current workload. Contact us with your component or a description of your requirement and we will provide an accurate lead time with your quotation. We respond to all enquiries within 1 business day.
Yes. Once we have reverse engineered and documented a component, we can manufacture any quantity — from a single replacement to an ongoing batch supply. The captured specification is retained for future production runs, eliminating the need to re-measure on subsequent orders.
