Industrial 3D models

Cube • Spider II

A watertight 3D-model of a plastic cube produced by ProtoLabs.

The texture of this 3D model of a Klemm L25d VIIR LX-MA airplane was created using the BPR render settings in Sketchfab. We used three main settings: specular, color and glossiness.

Airplane without texture • Ray

This Klemm L25d VIIR LX-MA airplane is an exhibit at the Aviation Museum in Mondorf-les-Bains, Luxeumbourg. Artec Ray was placed in 26 different positions around the airplane to make a complete 3D model.

Hub cap • Spider II

Captured with Artec Space Spider. This hub cap features a lot of rather flat monotone surfaces.

Makita case • Spider II

This section of plastic casing for an electric screwdriver is a very interesting object from a 3D scanning point of view.

Delphi compressor • Spider II

Owing to the grainy structure of its texture this compressor makes an excellent scanning object.

Carburetor • Spider II

The complex geometry of this carburetor makes it a very simple object to 3D scan!

Hydrant • Eva

This is a 3D model of a working hydrant on a street in Palo Alto, CA. To scan it, we used an Artec Eva connected to an Artec battery and a tablet for full scanning mobility.

Steering joint • Spider II

This part has a cylindrical shape, which is difficult for any scanner. But we found an easier way to scan it.

Stanley screwdriver • Spider II

Small ratcheting screwdriver scanned with the Artec spider. Scanned in two passes, both laying on its side.

Measuring tape • Spider II

This measuring tape was scanned as a potential demo object.

Eva • Spider II

Have you ever scanned a scanner? We have! There were a few areas on the scanner with little geometry and texture variation.

Panasonic GH4 • Spider II

We scanned our Panasonic GH4 with our Artec Space Spider. This was an untreated scan, so we scanned the camera as-is with no prep.

Ball joint • Spider II

A very simple part to scan and a good example of scanning holes.

Power drill • Spider II

Well used Ridgid power drill scanned with the Artec Spider.

Spanner • Spider II

A relatively easy object for scanning - the only challenges were its shiny surface (easily countered by anti-gloss spray) and the thin edges.

Product part • Spider II

Product part made of plastic. Scanning time was around 5 minutes, and post-processing took about 20 minutes. This is a good example of fast reverse engineering.

Transmission • Eva

An old transmission box, scanned with Eva. A good example of a challenging object, since it has a lot of deep holes.

Compressor • Spider II

This car compressor was placed on a rotating platform, which made scanning easy and fast. A very noticeable feature on this model is the holes.

Gear • Spider II

A good example of a symmetrical object, which is impossible for other scanners to capture without the application of stickers.

Medium-sized screw • Spider II

This screw was scanned with Artec Spider after being sprayed with gloss reducing powder. A pair of pliers held the bolt vertically.

Engine • Combo

The body of the engine and the larger details were scanned with Artec Eva. Spider was used to capture the more intricate geometry.

Smart car • Ray

The complete model of this Smart car was created from approximately 10-13 scans taken from various positions around all sides of the vehicle. We also took two scans from below, with the car raised on a car lifter.

Tower well valve • Eva

An early 1900’s tower well valve scanned on-site with Artec Eva, connected to a portable battery and a tablet.
