Einscan 3D Scanners FAQ

The term “3D imaging” refers to techniques that allow two-dimensional (2D) imaging sensors to capture and store 3D data about the physical world around us. The EinScan-S desktop 3D scanner uses structured-light phase-shifting technology to acquire the 3D coordinates (x y z) of real-world objects. Structured-light imaging extracts the 3D surface shape based on the information received from a projected structured-light pattern. The EinScan-S proprietary structured-light algorithms feature high-speed scanning, lower noise and finer details when compared to laser scanning technology.

EinScan-SE : ≤0.1mm

EinScan-SP : ≤0.05mm

EinScan-Pro : 0.1mm/0.3mm/0.05mm/0.05mm

EinScan-Pro+ : 0.1mm/0.3mm/0.05mm/0.05mm

EinScan-SE : 200mm*150mm

EinScan-SP : 200mm*150mm

EinScan-Pro : 210mm*150mm

EinScan-Pro+ : 300mm*170mm

Compared with competitively-priced laser scanners, the EinScan delivers better capture accuracy, less noise and better detail acquisition. Furthermore, the EinScan uses white light to ensure a safe working environment for users. Laser light can damage eyes but white light technology can be used without requiring any eye protection.

The EinScan-SE and SP are capable of scanning a wide variety of differently sized objects. The maximum automatic scan envelope is

700mm x 700mm x700mm/200mm x 200mm x 200mm for EinScan-SE and

1200mm x 1200mm x 1200mm/200mm x 200mm x 200mm for EinScan-Sp.

The EinScan is capable of scanning both dark and brightly colored objects because the software is equipped with a High Dynamic Range (HDR) scanning mode. HDR enables the capture of a wider range of real-world lighting scenarios for 3D imaging. The EinScan is an affordable solution for capturing objects of almost any color, including those with black and shiny surfaces.

The EinScan outputs data in STL, OBJ.

• STL (Stereo Lithography) is supported by most software packages and is widely used for rapid prototyping, 3D printing and CAD/CAM. STL files describe the surface geometry of a three-dimensional object but they do not convey color, texture or other common CAD model attributes.

• OBJ files are used to convey both the geometry and material data including color and texture.

Yes, the EinScan has built-in model simplification which enables direct printing of very large data sets.
