Creaform, a provider of 3D measurement solutions, will present its latest developments in 3D scanning at Formnext 2024. The trade fair, which is considered the most important platform for additive manufacturing and industrial 3D printing, offers Creaform the opportunity to demonstrate the potential applications of its technologies in various industries.
The HandySCAN 3D|SILVER series will be at the centre of the presentation. This portable scanner is characterised by its ability to capture 3D data quickly and accurately. The device has already proven itself in practice in various applications. For example, the company Polyaéro used the scanner for the reverse engineering of aircraft components. The ability to scan complex parts on site without dismantling them proved to be particularly advantageous.
APWORKS, a specialist in 3D-printed metal parts, uses the HandySCAN 3D|SILVER series for quality control. By scanning each printed part, the company ensures that the final products meet strict design tolerances. This method makes it possible to recognise potential errors early on in the production process and avoid costly rework.
In addition to the SILVER series, Creaform will also present the HandySCAN 3D|MAX and HandySCAN 3D|BLACK series. These are designed for scanning larger objects and capturing intricate details in complex geometries respectively. For users with a limited budget, Creaform will present the Peel 3D scanner, which delivers professional results despite its favourable price.
An important aspect of Creaform’s technology is the VXelements software platform. It processes the scan data using advanced algorithms and enables immediate visualisation of the captured data. This feature is particularly valuable for quickly identifying and resolving design or production issues.
