Garador/B&D CADP opener part reverse engineered from a broken sample.
A client dropped off a broken Garador/B&D CADP Auto Sectional Door opener component. Quality3Ds recreated the part in CAD and printed the replacement in PA6-CF carbon-fibre nylon.
The problem
The original sectional door opener part had failed, and the client needed a practical replacement from the physical sample rather than a rough visual copy.
The broken part was measured and rebuilt as a clean CAD model, then printed in PA6-CF for a tougher functional prototype/replacement than standard PLA.
Project scope
Reverse engineering, CAD recreation, printability review, and PA6-CF carbon-fibre nylon printing from a client-supplied broken part.
CAD and printed result
The project required a faithful CAD rebuild with small clip features, mounting details, and a practical material choice for the finished print.
Where this helps
Broken mechanical plastics
Useful for suitable plastic clips, brackets, covers, guides, and opener components.
CAD gives control
Once modelled, dimensions can be adjusted for fit, clearance, and stronger print orientation.
Engineering material option
PA6-CF can be used where a tougher printed material is a better fit than basic PLA.
