Sintered components were manufactured by SLM and ADAM technologies, while their surface was analyzed using a progressive optical measurement method. To examine the possibility of reverse engineering, the components were optically scanned with a laser scanner and compared to their CAD model. Based on empirical experience, to scan opti-cally the metal and lustrous surfaces is a challenge. The components were manufactured from anti-corrosion materials 17-4 PH and 316L-0407.
