3D Scanners in Industry – Optimize Your Processes with Machines-3D

With over 10 years of experience, Machines-3D is a key player in the field of 3D printing and scanning. We support professionals in industry, dentistry, and education in their transition to advanced technologies by providing reliable and high-performance solutions tailored to their specific needs.

What is 3D Scanning?

3D scanners convert a physical object into a digital model, streamlining engineering, design, and quality control processes across various industries. Unlike 2D scanners, 3D scanners capture the full geometry of objects, enabling accurate three-dimensional representations.

Advanced technologies, such as the Freescan UE from Shining 3D, allow for the capture of millions of data points in seconds with micron-level precision (1 micron = 0.001 mm). These scanners can digitize objects of all sizes, from fingerprints to industrial engines, ensuring unmatched accuracy in 3D modeling.

3D Industrial Scanners and Software

While 3D scanners are highly precise instruments, specialized software is what optimizes workflow and maximizes the usability of captured data.

Solutions like Geomagic Control X, Verisurf Inspect, or Einsense Q provide ergonomic interfaces that allow users to:

✔ Process point clouds and generate functional models.

✔ Optimize polygonal meshes for CAD applications.

✔ Compare deviations between scanned parts and their 3D models.

✔ Conduct advanced metrology analyses to ensure part compliance.

Machines-3D helps you choose the right software to enhance your productivity and the accuracy of your analysis.

Applications of 3D Scanners in Industry

🔍 Quality Control

In a highly competitive market, precision and speed in quality control are essential. Using 3D scanners and advanced software, each part can be scanned in detail and compared to its specified tolerances. This allows for:

✔ Immediate defect detection.

✔ Reduced costs associated with waste.

✔ Improved measurement repeatability.

🛠 Prototyping and 3D Printing

3D scanning significantly enhances rapid prototyping and 3D printing. A physical object can be scanned and converted into an STL file, ready for high-precision 3D printing.

This technique helps:

✔ Speed up the design cycle by reducing iterations.

✔ Accurately reproduce existing parts without a CAD model.

✔ Facilitate product customization.

🔄 Reverse Engineering and CAD Design

One of the biggest challenges in engineering is recreating a CAD file from a physical product. With 3D scanning, it is possible to:

✔ Capture complex shapes with high precision.

✔ Generate CAD files for optimized production.

✔ Enhance maintenance and modernization of industrial equipment.

💨 CFD/FEA Simulation

Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) and Finite Element Analysis (FEA) simulations are used to test parts' resistance to heat, vibrations, and fluid dynamics. 3D scanners ensure ultra-precise models, making simulations more reliable for industries such as aerospace and automotive.
