Understanding the Process of 3D Scanning for Engineers

At Technast, we are experts in advanced design and manufacturing, serving clients across Canada, especially in Toronto, Mississauga, and the GTA. One of our specialties is designing intricate futuristic 3D printed objects for high-end retail and scientific use. In this blog post, we're going to delve into the process of 3D scanning, a crucial component of our 3D printing workflow.

What is 3D Scanning?

3D scanning is a technology that captures the shape of physical objects using a line of laser light. This technology is used to quickly capture precise measurements of complex shapes that are then used to create 3D models. These models can be used in a variety of applications, from creating custom license plate frames to jewelry prototyping.

How Does 3D Scanning Work?

The 3D scanning process involves several steps:

• Data acquisition: This is the actual scanning process. The scanner uses a laser light to capture the shape and appearance of the object.
• Data processing: The raw data captured by the scanner is processed using advanced software to create a 3D model.
• Post-processing: The 3D model is refined and optimized for the intended use.
