Creaform HandySCAN Black Detailed Demonstration

[@joetke]

Incredible device. A great technical achievement indeed. CONGRATS! gorgeous design and definitely great knowledge of object scanning. Amazingly just a bunch of viewers... What's the heck? This video is an academy-award contender in its special category!

[@magnumrubber4391]

What a great tool. Are these scanners safe to take on a plane as hand carry? As we will need to be able to travel with them to various locations around the world.

[@EMS3D]

Yes, we travel with these 3D scanners all the time. The smaller scanners like the HandySCAN we carry onto the plane and the larger ones we check as baggage. All Creaform 3D scanners come in Pelican cases with plenty of foam for protection.

For a 0.5mm scan that finish is incredible.

[@EMS3D]

Thanks. Yes the Creaform system and software and very impressive. And to think you can go all the way down to .1mm as shown in this video. kzbin.info/www/bejne/aKjSq41tjc-rrKs

I just have to say, if you are looking for a 3d scanner, you are doing yourself a disservice if you don't speak with Mark/EMS. We have experienced excellent customer service with everyone from Mark (the owner) to the application engineers and even the office manager. Regarding the HandyScan Black, we only have one complaint - that we didn't purchase these instead of the Faro arms back when we first started up. I used to view having to use targets as a negative aspect, but now that I have seen the light, I don't see much use in scanning with the Faro. Big props to Mark and his team. Go check them out!

[@EMS3D]

Thanks for the kind words. I'm glad to hear you are enjoying your HandySCAN Black.

[@therustdigger]

Hi, very cool review! What type of dots are used with the Handyscan? thanks

[@EMS3D]

6 mm retro-reflective with a 10 mm contrast. We also have our SpeedTarget Tape - learn more in this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/l5mUnqSBmJhsqdE

[@azmaljamal]

Is it possible to use for plastic injection molding steel?. As for this type of steel it is more shiny than the one you scanned in the video.

[@EMS3D]

Yes it should be able to 3D scan it.

[@kapilsharma9999]

What is the need to put the target dots over the object to scan?

[@EMS3D]

Hi Kapil, the targets are used for the scanners positioning. The video goes into great detail on how this works.

[@salimalalal5903]

Is there a scanner that goes inside an opaque cavity from the inside

[@EMS3D]

Industrial CT Scanners may be able to do that.

[@salimalalal5903]

The tomography scanner is banned from being sold in my country

@@EMS3D Dear sir, can you send me any file that I ask you for money and consider me a favor from your honorable person

[@ANTIWOKE]

I am looking to scan 3D objects to make them game asset ready, meaning low triangle amounts. Is there a retopology/cleanup function in the software where the scanned 3D model gets reduced or cleaned up in triangle size until several thousand triangles, but keeps its accurate shape?

[@EMS3D]

Yes there is a decimate tool in VX Elements that allows you to reduce the triangle count.

[@timloney2251]

Ok, once you get your polygonal model what software are you putting that into to get your NURBS patch? Also can this be turned into a solid model after filling the holes and regeneration of Radii etc. and which CAD software do you recommend with it.

[@EMS3D]

Hey Tim, there are many options as to which reverse engineering software you want to use to create surface and/or solid model geometry. Here is a video we made comparing four different reverse engineering software programs kzbin.info/www/bejne/ppmyXqyXnaymjMk

@@EMS3D Thank you for the quick reply, I will check it out.

[@timloney2251]

I did watch the video, I greatly appreciate the effort you are putting into these videos, very informative! I will be going through the other videos as well.

[@tstanley01]

@@EMS3D Design X is top of the line, but it is expensive, and if you want to use the live transfer feature, you have to have a copy of the software you are wanting to transfer into installed on that computer as well. If you transfer into several different softwares (solidworks, inventor, etc.), it can get very expensive...

[@chiquyetpt]

This JOb is so good I want to build this cad model for your evaluation, Can you send me the STL data.

[@ThomasShue]

How much is that scanner?

[@EMS3D]

Hi Thomas, pricing varies by county, options, etc. If in the US feel free to contact us directly for pricing. Otherwise contact your local reseller.

[@SmoggyTurnip]

$19900 to $29900. So difficult to say that isn't it?

[@davidsharma3147]

[@spyro440]

Wish the scanner could track itself without tracking dots like modern VR headsets. Lighthouse + Vive tracker should do it.

[@EMS3D]

Hi Rupert, the only way to track itself with the accuracy it can achieve (25 microns /.0009") targets are required. We have 3D scanners that don't require any targets and use geometry but they are not as accurate.
