Accuracy is often one of the first specifications people compare when choosing a 3D scanner. A scanner rated at 0.02 millimeters may seem automatically better than one rated at 0.05 or 0.1 millimeters … read more

One of the most important decisions in a 3D scanning project happens before the final mesh is created: should the object be captured as one continuous scan, or should it be divided into several smalle … read more

Automotive 3D scanning covers a wide range of projects. A restoration shop digitizing an entire classic vehicle has very different needs from a fabricator scanning an engine component, a designer capt … read more

For many manufacturers, 3D inspection has traditionally been a multi-step process. First, the part needs to be scanned or measured. Then the data has to be transferred to a workstation. From there, th … read more

Markers in 3D Scanning In 3D scanning, tracking is what allows the scanner to understand where it is as it moves around an object. Each new section of scan data needs to line up with the data already … read more
