Did you know that historical statues also benefit from the creation of a 3D model? Dimensions and every last detail of the object can be digitized and used for future restoration work. Due to the size of the Captain Cook statue, the 3D laser scanner ZEISS T-SCAN hawk 2 proved to be a suitable tool for this task.
At MarineShaft, 3D inspection of large maritime components has been introduced. To provide more efficient repair solutions and enable new services for their customers, the service provider uses the hand-held 3D laser scanner ZEISS T-SCAN hawk 2 as well as TRITOP photogrammetry.
Follow our Australian partner Scan-Xpress while 3D scanning and 3D inspecting the Great Melbourne Telescope. They are using the powerful 3D scanner ATOS Q which manages this huge project easily.
Vehicles of all kinds must be checked for possible defects when in use. This also applies to sailing boats that take part in regattas. Read here how 3D scanning supports the quality assurance process of important boat structures.
In this article our partner CAD Micro shows us how ATOS Q is supporting reverse engineering processes. With the mobile scanner, a throttle is scanned and the generated stl data used for precise 3d printing.
With the latest software release of 2023 come a variety of new and helpful features for 3D scanning. For example, in ZEISS INSPECT, creating a CAD out of a mesh is now possible via the surfacing function.
Midwest Metrology from our global partner network was off to a big task in the construction industry. Take a look at how they are 3D scanning large water pumps for repair purposes.
Scan-Xpress from our #HandsOnMetrology partner network takes us onto a yacht in the Australian port. They show how easy 3D scanning a transparant windshield is performed with just a few little tweaks.
The automotive industry is one of the most competitive fields in the world, under constant pressure to improve quality, cut costs, and boost efficiency. One technology that has proven to be a valuable tool in achieving these goals is 3D scanning. In this article, we look at how and why 3D scanning is used for quality control in the automotive sector and the advantages it offers.
Historic architecture is often seen as an important part of our cultural heritage. Preserving it for future generations is a vital task. One way to achieve this goal is through restoration. It involves the process of returning a building to its original state by repairing or reconstructing damaged or missing parts. 3D scanning technology supports in this case with the collection of data necessary for the rework of hundreds years worth of history.
