3D Scanning Tips & Tricks for Targets

Image
  3D Scanning Tips & Tricks for Targets The EinScan 3D Scanners are very fast, accurate, and powerful machines when it comes down to scanning capabilities. The only tricky thing that can cause trouble for the users is having to put the tracking targets on the part before you can scan anything. Also the issue of having to take them off afterwards. Usually, this isn’t much of a problem for average-sized parts that are only a couple of feet across. But if the part you are scanning is too small to have targets placed on it properly or if the parts are really big, like a boat or large metal casting it can slow down the process. For the convenience of the users,  Reverse Engineering Service  by Mako GmbH have come up with ways to speed up the process of adding and removing targets. Here are some ideas you can use to help speed up your pre/post scan rituals: The easiest place to start is with the Size of the targets, either 3mm or 6mm in diameter, and how sticky they are. If you want to b

Industrial usage of Reverse Engineering

  Industrial usage of reverse engineering in various fields Reverse Engineering is being applied to generate CAD files. Specialized software is used with CMM and a touch probe in two demonstration experiments. Advantages of the technique include immediate feedback, data reduction, direct generation of geometry and higher precision of the final product. Reverse Engineering in manufacturing and engineering is used to find out how equipment or products are made and work. Reverse Engineering in manufacturing and engineering is used for a wide variety of reasons. By taking apart engineering equipment or a manufactured product and discovering the materials it is made from and how it works, we can help a business determine and improve production processes, enhance product effectiveness, and protect patents. The process is also used to discover how a ‘legacy’ (i.e very old) component or product operates and is necessary when the original technical drawings and material information are no longe

Steps involved in Reverse Engineering

  Reverse Engineering: From construction steps to final output During the reverse engineering process, we need to generate the CAD file in the software best suited for each task. During this process, we should work regularly inside the program and save the construction history of all the steps we take. You can access that history as part of the ready data. Following are the guidelines set by experts in the industry  Reverse Engineering Service . If you want to be flawless in the reverse engineering process, you must follow these instructions. Reverse Engineering with Parametric features While doing reverse engineering manually, we are able to generate parametric features wherever useful. These features can be used on parts with regular geometry in every CAD software. Parametric features are very beneficial when working with CAD files. The data sources we generally work with: 3D scans – for example clay models, as explained in the sample above Simulations – FEM, ANSYS or material flow i

Process of Reverse Enginering

What is the Process of Reverse Engineering? Every step of reverse engineering process begins with choosing the right CAD software to suit your specifications. The Reverse Engineering Service  team uses the best software of your choice to rebuild your source file into high quality CAD data. They dedicate a team of highly qualified, experienced and dedicated engineers to take on your project. The project team decides the details of the reverse engineering process and agree on the quickest and most precise way of remodeling. Accurate reverse engineering work done by hand Reverse engineering is done by hand. Before starting to rebuild pointcloud data, structures, geometries and functionalities have to be considered. 3D Scanners scan quickly and precisely, but no matter how good they are, there will still be slight tolerances between the 3D scan and the real part. In the example below for instance, if you want a hole that is 50mm, manual measurement ensures that everything is correct

Which 3D scanner is best suited for your project?

The 3D scanner market is a diverse space with a wide range of products that come in all shapes, sizes, capabilities, and prices. Such choice, while a great thing in itself, can make sorting the goods from the ordinary a difficult task. Whether you’re looking for the perfect entry-level scanner suitable for consumers or hobbyists, a more powerful machine with better software and workflows, or an industrial-level 3D scanner that can handle advanced tasks like quality control, reverse engineering, and maintenance, we’re confident you’ll find a scanner in this list that is up for the task and budget at hand. If you are still uncertain about which scanner to use, contact a professional leader in Reverse Engineering and CAD software. For 3D scanning of your items, we recommend state of the art 3D scan device from  Shining3D ,  Creaform, Solutionix or GOM.   Shining EinScan Pro 2X Plus This scanner features: ·         High scanning speeds: (Handheld HD Scan) 20fps 1,100,000 points / s and (H

Digital Jetzt funding program & investment funding up to 55% for SMEs by Federal Govt. of Germany

The Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy (BMWi) supports small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with the program "Digital Jetzt - Investment Funding for SMEs " so that medium-sized companies can exploit the economic potential of digitization. The program offers financial grants and aims to encourage companies to invest more in digital technologies and in the qualification of their employees. More and more medium-sized companies are recognizing: Digitization opens up new economic opportunities. In addition, digital technologies enable new business models, intelligent work and production processes, more effective customer acquisition and better networking, for example with suppliers. Digital skills and digitally trained employees are therefore a decisive factor for economic success.   “Medium-sized companies in particular can benefit from the digital age. The Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Energy supports you with the new funding program "Digital
