Signs you really need 3D scanning3D scanning is becoming an essential component of many companies’ quality control strategies. If you haven’t started leveraging this rapid non-contact measurement technology yet, here are the key warning signs that indicate it’s time to dive into the world of scanning.

Desktop 3D scannersA desktop 3D scanner is a good option if you need to scan a number of small objects with the highest precision. The object is placed within the scanning system and is captured via an automatic or semi-automatic process. Easy to use, high accuracy and resolution, but the object size is limited.

Handheld 3D scannersProfessional handheld 3D scanners are fast, portable and intuitive to use. You can easily get round all the areas of an object and capture details from any angle and in almost any environment. Some handheld scanners need to be connected to a computer, others work autonomously, with a processor and screen onboard.

Scanning is Only Half of the EquationIt takes more than a good 3D scanner to get reliable measurements. You need the right software too. Selecting a 3D scanner is important, but it’s useless without software that can effectively work with point cloud data and let you get the information you need. There are three categories of software that are marketed to users of 3D scanners:

WHY YOU NEED 3D SCAN-NATIVE INSPECTION SOFTWARE
Measure features with GD&T6
Many people assume that it’s better to measure basic geometric features using a contact measurement system like a CMM. When you have a limited number of features to measure, that may be true. For more complex parts with dozens or hundreds of individual features, it will almost always be faster to scan and then use software to identify and measure those features.
Look for software that can automatically identify features in a 3D scan, filter the data intelligently to remove noise and take reliable, accurate measurements. You’ll speed up your inspections and be able to measure GD&T (Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing) on your scanned parts as well.
Artec 3D & 3D Systems EBOOK: IS 3D SCANNING RIGHT FOR YOUR INSPECTION NEEDS?
Create digital archives for future use7
Every part that you 3D scan becomes a digital record that you can keep well into the future. The best 3D scan-native software will save the scan data, nominal model, alignments, and every measurement you’ve taken on that part in one efficient file that won’t eat up unnecessary storage space. This makes it easy to go back to any part you’ve ever scanned to see exactly how the data was manipulated, what measurements were already taken, and take additional measurements whenever you need. Gone are the days of regretting not measuring more of your parts when you had them easily accessible.
In addition, the most advanced inspection software will learn your inspection routines and let you inspect every subsequently scanned part completely automatically.
