3D Scanner
From the real world to the 3D digital model with the most advanced and complete technology
From the real world to the 3D CAD model
Through 3D scanning, it is possible to acquire the three-dimensional surfaces of a physical object aimed at generating the CAD model, which is essential for detecting the 3D shape of the component for which CAD files of the object are not available, with considerable reduction of costs and times for the development of increasingly innovative products.
The advantages of 3D scanning
Speed
The process of 3D scanning an object or environment is very quick.
Accuracy
Create the 3D CAD drawing of your product in detail without leaving anything out.
Ease of use
Scanning an object with 3D scanners is really simple and accessible to everyone.
Versatility
It adapts to different fields of application, meeting the needs of producers.
Why use 3D scanning
3D scanning, when it is necessary
Scanning is essential to detect the 3D shape of the component for which the CAD file is not available. 3D scanning technology can also be used for the digital acquisition of the surfaces of an object for the purpose of geometric comparison with the nominal model. This process allows you to obtain dimensional certification with the aim of Quality Control of the object itself.
Thanks to 3D scanners, CAD design becomes incredibly faster as the exact shape of objects is acquired in the form of point clouds or triangular meshes, thus reducing the time that would have been necessary to design the component from scratch.
Reverse Engineering
Reverse engineering is the procedure of reconstructing the 3D model and CAD design of a physical object through measurements. Thanks to 3D scanning, any component can be measured and reconstructed in all its parts with accurate digital measurement techniques and in a very short time compared to what can be done with manual measurement methods.
Additionally, scan-to-CAD software allows you to clean, align and optimize the acquired data and extract dimensional information from the mesh before transferring it to the CAD software.
