Latest news and resources on 3D scanning and measurement technologies
3D scanning is a fast way to collect surface measurements from physical objects into 3D digital form accurately with repeatable results. 3D scanners are becoming more widely adopted due to their affordability and versatility. Many industries use 3D scanning as part of their processes to improve efficiency and product quality.
This guide explains the flexibility of 3D scanning technology and its uses in different industry applications including reverse engineering and quality inspection.

3D scanning is great for preserving large collections into digital format. With the popularity of 3D scanning on the rise, more people are capturing physical objects into digital 3D models for archiving. Sketchfab is leading the movement by creating a platform to allow anyone to publish and share digital 3D models online. We share our 3D content on Sketchfab through our GoMeasure3D account.
Sketchfab is a firm believer that the easier it is to share cultural artifacts, the easier it is to learn about our cultural heritage and roots. To support this cause, they are offering free business accounts to all cultural institutions. Organizations like the British Museum and the Metropolitan Museum of Art are already on board. To learn more about this initiative, please go to Sketchfab’s website.

It is challenging to scan parts that are shiny, dark, or transparent using a 3D scanner that uses light as a projection source. Light scatters when scanning these difficult surfaces. These two videos explain and demonstrate how to prepare these types of parts for 3D scanning. A developer aerosol spray is handy in coating parts. It sprays a white powdery substance to create a matte surface finish. The white powder can be wiped off easily after scanning. Watch the videos to learn more.
