3D SCANNERZ PORTABLE

The new version of this device is smaller than the last, 109mm x 18mm x 24mm, and weighs about 65 g. The only equipment you will need for this 3D scanner to work is an iPad, then once you have downloaded the app Skanect Pro, it will work instantly. The Structure Sensor solution adds precise 3D vision to your mobile device, enabling 3D scanning among other features. The product is lightweight measuring 41 x 157 x 61 mm with a weight of 238 g.

The manufacturer also provides XYZScan Handy, a scanning and post-editing software to edit your models after scanning. The scan resolution is also superior to the 1.0A, between 0.2 and 1.5 mm with an operating range ranging from 25 to 60 cm. With a wider scanning range than its younger sibling the 1.0 A, the scanner can scan objects that are 5 x 5 x 5 ~ 100 x 100 x 200 cm using an Intel® RealSense™ Camera.

3D SCANNERZ PORTABLE

Taiwanese manufacturer, XYZprinting, currently offers 5 scanners, though today we will focus on one of their more low-cost 3D scanners, the portable and high-resolution 3D Scanner 2.0. Several affordable solutions, compared to professional scanners which are much more expensive, are available today to allow many users to bring their projects to life: whether you are a maker, a teacher or an industry leader, on of these low cost 3D scanners is bound to suit your needs! Easy to handle and transport, we have chosen some 3D scanners under $8,000 (€7,000), sorted by increasing price. 3D scanners are based on two main technologies – laser triangulation and structured light – which will allow to obtain more or less precise details depending on the chosen device. It captures data that is then transformed into a 3D model which can then be 3D printed. 3D scanning is often used in the additive manufacturing (AM) sector to design a 3D model more easily than via modeling software.
