INNOVATIVE TECHNOLOGY – The unique combination of white light technology, laser triangulation, and a special calibration process allow the SOL 3D scanner to reach an impressive 0.05 mm accuracy with texture feature. The camera picks up the texture, the laser collects its geometry. The turntable can support a maximum weight of 4.4 lbs (2 Kg). The near and far scanning modes allow you to obtain very fine detailed scans.
USABILITY – The SOL PRO 3D scanner is one of the most accurate 3D desktop scanners on the market. It integrates seamlessly into your 3D workflow where the scanner’s precision and quality make it a perfect partner for your quality assurance, product inspection or 3D printing tasks. With only four pieces that attach with thumb screws, getting the SOL PRO scanner setup is a breeze. The software is intuitive and there is no need to manually mesh alignments.
SEAMLESS – We continue to strive for perfection and work tirelessly to make the entire process seamless. The Scan Dimension engineering team focused on developing an incredibly easy-to-use scanner. To start a scan, users simply place an object on a turntable, place it within the included tent, and press a button — the laser, camera, and software do the rest. You can rescan your object from different angles to make sure all the geometry and texture is collected and the software will mesh it.
EXPERIENCE BEHIND THE INNOVATION – Scan Dimension is a division of the scanning heavyweight, Global Scanning, a Danish-based technology firm with about 30 years of experience in the image-capturing sector. This collective experience is behind the engineering of SOL and SOL PRO, which was designed to be, above all, portable, affordable, easy to use, and precise.

Buyer Guide 3D Scanners

3D scanners are an important tool for creating a digital copy of an object to use as a template. They come in all shapes and sizes, from handheld scanners that can copy small objects, to larger scanners that scan large objects, such as standard-sized cars.

Consider the object to be scanned (size, shape, material).
Consider the purpose of the scan. You may scan an object for personal use, or for a group project, in which case you’ll want to look for scanners that work well for both small and large objects, and that work with different materials.
Consider the scanner’s features.
Consider your intended environment. For example, if you’re scanning small objects, a handheld scanner may be all you need. But if you’re scanning something large or hard to scan, consider a large scanning device.
Consider your budget. Scanners can be pricey, so you’ll want to consider your starting budget when deciding which scanner is right for you.
Consider your level of expertise. If you’re just starting out, you may want to invest in a handheld scanner. That’s cheaper than a large scanning device and requires no prior knowledge.
Consider support. Some scanners have built-in support, while others don’t. You may want to consider support options if you’re new to 3D scanning.

How to choose 3D Scanners

There are a lot of 3D scanning options on the market today, so how do you choose the right one for your business? We broke down the factors you should consider before making a purchase:

How large is the area you want to be scanned? If you want to scan large areas, you’ll probably want to invest in a larger scanning device that has a greater resolution.
How many surfaces are in the area you want to scan? If you want to scan an entire building, having multiple scanners will allow you to scan different sections of the building and stitch them together.
How accurate is the scan? The accuracy of the scan will determine how realistic your end products will be.
How much data do you need? For 3D scanning, the more data you collect, the more usable the final products will be.
How accurate do you need the final model to be? If you want high accuracy, you may want to invest in more expensive scanning devices that can capture extremely fine details and textures.
What type of end product do you need? If you need models, we recommend choosing a 3D scanning device that can produce files that can be used to create 3D models. If you need objects, we recommend choosing a 3D scanning device that can produce files that can be used to create physical objects.
How far away is the area you want to scan? Some 3D scanning devices, like laser scanners, require external light sources and reflectors to function properly.
How long will the scan take? Some 3D scanning devices, like 3D scanners, require users to stand in a specific location while the scan is taking place.
How accurate do you need the scan to be? The depth of the scan will determine the accuracy of the models.
What material do you need to scan? To effectively scan an object, the material must be conductive.

How to maintain 3D Scanners

If youre the owner of a 3D scanner, its important to know how to properly maintain it. Just like other machines, 3D scanners do require a bit of maintenance. Otherwise, they will start to malfunction.

Keep it clean. While its possible to clean your 3D scanner yourself, its more effective if you hire a professional to clean your scanner for you. Dirt and dust can easily clog your 3D scanner, leading to performance issues.
Adjust your scanners settings. Your 3D scanner is programmed for optimal performance, so you dont want to damage your scanner by exposing it to too much heat or cold. To adjust your scanners settings, youll need to unscrew the scanners lid and use the manufacturers manual to adjust the settings accordingly.
Tighten your screws. Sometimes, the screws that hold your 3D scanner together can become loose. To tighten your screws, use a pair of pliers or a pair of needle-nose pliers.
Keep spare parts on hand.
