Using 3D Scanning in Art

3D scanning can be used to measure objects of art in order to assess their 3D dimensions accurately.

How to Improve, Optimize, and Accelerate First Article Inspection

First article inspection (FAI) is a crucial step in the manufacturing process. The quality control (QC) team needs to optimize this phase of inspection in order to limit the back and forth between conception and fabrication. The QC team must not only correctly identify the defects, but also provide relevant data, measurements, and results for solving the identified problems.

How to Get Started with Product Reverse Engineering?

The main—if not the sole—purpose of reverse engineering is to gain knowledge about the design and development steps shrouded in the guise of a finished product. But what is backwards engineering if not a means to address practical issues such as machine downtime, part replacement, and maintenance or repair challenges?

3D Scans Without Limits of Shapes and Surfaces
