From Physical Geometry
to Engineering Solutions.
Rootstock Systems combines engineering design, 3D scanning, reverse engineering and product development to turn real-world geometry into practical, manufacturable solutions.
What we do
Engineering built around the real world.
Whether the starting point is a physical component, a vehicle, an existing product or a new concept, we build the engineering information needed to move it forward.
↺
Reverse Engineering
Turn existing components and vehicle geometry into usable engineering data, models and drawings.
CAD
Product Development
Develop practical concepts, CAD models and manufacturable solutions from requirements through refinement.
Vehicle engineering
Geometry that fits the vehicle.
Rootstock is developing a specialist capability around panel vans and special-purpose vehicle applications, including campervan and ambulance conversions.
✓
Vehicle geometry captureCapture difficult-to-measure surfaces and interfaces.
✓
CAD reconstructionCreate engineering models from physical geometry.
✓
Custom componentsDevelop parts and equipment around the actual vehicle.
Applications
VW Crafter · Mercedes Sprinter · Special-purpose vehicles
Our engineering approach is particularly suited to conversion projects where accurate vehicle geometry is essential to the design.
