3D Scanners / 3D Scanning Software

3D Scanner Information

Owning a 3D scanner enables you to scan parts on-site and on-demand. We have experience with every major system on the market, and can even create custom solutions. As part of our 3D scanning product selection process, we'll consult with you every step of the way to determine the best scanner that fits your needs and budget. Below is a sampling of 3D scanner technology available on the market today that we often provide our clients with.

• 3Shape Scanners

  3Shape scanners are an excellent choice for automatic desktop scanning of small objects. Used mainly in the dental, hearing aid, and jewelry industries, the systems capture precise three-dimensional data quickly and easily for items up to 3 cubic inches. The automatic setup speeds production of complex parts at an economical cost.

• Artec™ MH and MHT 3D Scanners

  Easy-to-use Artec™ MD and MHT 3D scanners give our customers great low-cost systems with excellent scanning capabilities. High-speed video technology captures three-dimensional full-color textured images and can be used for both motion and still measurements.

• Artec™ 3D Scanners, Model S, M, L

  The cost-effective Artec 3D Scanners, Model S, M, L allow digitizing via high-speed video of a broad size range of objects. Portable and easy to use, the Models S, M, and L can capture still and motion measurements in black-and-white.

• Large Volume Metrology

  The FARO Photon scanner can quickly capture surface data of very large objects from a range of up to 25 meters. More about the FARO Photon Scanner.

• FARO FA-Series

  The FARO® 7-axis Platinum, Titanium, Quantum or Advantage arms are ultra-affordable and easy-to-use. The high-accuracy Laser Design SLP laser probes combined with a FARO system make an ideal match for laser scanning on all types of parts. Available as a completely integrated system or as a retrofit kit, the FA-Series scanners are the ideal choice for portable laser scanning applications.

• Handyscan 3D REVscan

  The versatile Handyscan 3D REVscan is the first truly portable handheld laser scanner, requiring no more than a user and laptop to operate. Being the only self-positioning handheld scanner in the market, the REVscan 3D laser scanner offers quality scanning for many applications.

• Handyscan 3D EXAscan

  The new, powerful EXAscan 3D laser scanner from Handyscan 3D is equipped with a third high definition camera which greatly increases the scanning resolution as well as the data acquisition accuracy. The EXAscan 3D laser scanner is a high resolution, portable scanning solution for many applications.

• Konica Minolta VIVID 9i / 910

  The Konica Minolta VIVID 9i in the most advanced scanner in the VIVID line of 3D laser scanners. The VIVID 9i is truly a jack of all trades, able to scan objects from very small to very large - all with incredible accuracy and resolution.

Scanning Software Information

Choosing the right software is an important decision. We work with many major 3D scanning, quality inspection, and reverse engineering software packages on a daily basis and consult with no hidden agenda. As part of our product selection process, we leverage our expertise to help you pick the right software that fits your engineering needs. Below is a sampling of related software available on the market today that we often provide our clients with.

• 3D Scanning Software

  Easily control your new scanner, manipulate scan data and create watertight polymesh models with easy to learn 3D Scanning Software from one of our partners.

• Reverse Engineering Software

  Automatically create a shrinkwrap model or manually surface to capture design intent. Create full CAD models directly from scan data using Reverse Engineering Software.

• Quality Inspection Software

  Data obtained by 3D laser scanning is ideal for detecting warpage and other defects which are viewed with user-friendly HTML reports generated by Quality Inspection Software.

• Other Software

  These unique software packages just don't fit into the above categories. Blade analysis and viewer software are examples of Other Software.
