Faro Arm & Laser Probe: Reverse Engineering Introduction

[@bunchofcreativity7741]

Your contents are really unique and useful, thank you for the video 🤝

Thank you Dean for helping me understand the feral arm. I’ve never had the opportunity to use one but would love to. You’re a great help!

[@RDeanOdell]

Thanks so much!

Excelente! Actualmente se usar Faro para dimensionales tradicionales en 2D y con estos vídeos estoy aprendiendo a escáner ya que tendré un nuevo empleo donde tienen este escáner, muchas gracias por tu contenido!

Should the faro arm be able to stand alone while you scan, without you having to hold it while you can?

[@marcokurek2654]

you should do more videos on using the faro arm

I enjoy your video a lot. Thanks for interesting video.

Thanks!

Just wanted to share a few experiences from my experience with laser scanning and reverse engineering: a.) If you are scanning plastic injection molded parts, create and provide a straightening fixture for the scanning company. b.) If the scanning company has the "software" that can directly convert mesh face files into a parametric solid(actual SW file) pay them. c.) It's worth it, even if it's $1,000-2,000 a file. It will take you about a week or longer to convert a "mesh surface model" into a solid part, because of the "slow data". d.) Seriously, it takes 30s to 2 minutes between every mouse click or a simple rotation of the model. e.) It doesn't matter how much you "turn off" resources and decimate mesh counts. f.) Only, if you already created the solid model from hand measurements of the part and you want to superimpose with a laser scanned image would it be worth it.

Great Video!

So in case i want to scan a car's floor and i'm focused just in a certain area. How can i use the clipping plane?

[@RDeanOdell]

Hi, all you need is three points in space, so you could establish 3 points in air a little over the floor so you don’t pick up any points above.

How to select the same size of the original size that we already scanned.

Sweet stuff

[@RDeanOdell]

Thanks!

[@cjwehner]

Well done! Always wondered how to scan things for a 3D printer! Now do a kidney.

[@RDeanOdell]

Hi! Great to see a comment from you. I can’t help with the kidney without legal issues, but I think it could be done.

[@upstatenewyorkers8977]

Awesome

[@RDeanOdell]

Great to hear!

[@dotcom3063]

Can you just tell us how to scan the under places without moving any object.
