The listed family company is in its sixth generation and has served fire departments for more than 150 years. A strong customer focus, innovative strength and reliability are Rosenbauer’s key assets.

When the firetruck manoeuvred into our office´s driveway everyone wanted to take a look at this massive vehicle. The Team from Rosenbauer Group Karlsruhe coming to pay a visit to SHINING 3D on that day, delivered an elaborate introduction to how firetrucks are tailored on demand adapted to the specific requirements of the customers. The team came to the SHINING 3D EMEA headquarters to explore the capabilities of the EinScan Pro HD 3D Scanner.

Goal: 3D Scanning vehicle parts and equipment to enhance the 3D design process

In the process of equipping a truck with the tools requested by the customer, Rosenbauer started to go fully digital for the fitting of all the equipment into the vehicle. The digital models of the requested products to be integrated in the truck are fitted into the virtual vehicle in Keyshot. This allows the Rosenbauer Team to react fast on customer´s comments and requirements of change in the customization journey. It also saved them a great deal of time to go fully digital.  Sometimes the original drawings and model data of products are too complicated to obtain or simply not available. This issue can be resolved with the EinScan Pro HD to guarantee a smooth and seamless design of a custom firetruck.

Fast, reliable and authentic acquisition of object characteristics is handled at ease by the EinScan Pro HD Multifunctional Handheld 3D Scanner. With the assistance of the latest 3D scanning technology by SHINING 3D, Rosenbauer was able to fill the gap of missing product details. Let´s take a closer look at the workflow in detail:

Upon the arrival of the Rosenbauer Team, the EinScan Pro HD has been set up with a dedicated work station. Due to its versatile and flexible handling, creating a perfect setting for 3D scanning of different areas, tools and equipment of the firetruck only took a few minutes.

Rosenbauer uses scan data to tailor products on clients request

By using the EinScan Pro HD to scan various parts of the firetruck, it is possible to obtain authentic and precise 3D data of the objects, which are perfectly suitable for rendering in Keyshot and thus are the perfect match for the application requirements of the Rosenbauer Team.

This project proves evidence that the EinScan Pro HD is the ideal companion to capture highly accurate 3D data of a multitude of different objects empowering the users to take the next step on their digital technology journey.
