3D Scanning Services:
Also known as 3D Imaging, 3D Scanning is the process of obtaining digital
shape information of a geometry with non contact imaging systems. This
process creates what is known as "point cloud" data that can be used for
many purposes. Scanners can capture thousands of points within seconds. If
an object is too large to scan in one take, the scan data can be joined
together with special processing software as long as each scan contains
at least some of the adjacent data.
Absolute Geometries will scan your geometry with our non-contact scanning
system to create point cloud, STL or NURBS surface data.
We can also supply the following services:
Existing Geometry is scanned so that a previously unavailable CAD model
can be created.
The scan data is overlayed with the original CAD data or previous scan data to
determine differences.
Scans of Rapid Prototyping parts are compared to the original .STL file to determine
if the proper build parameters are being used.
