BEST PLUG AND PLAY SCANNER
The SOL 3D scanner provides an affordable, easy-to-use solution for creating digital copies of real-world objects.
It uses a combination of laser triangulation and white light technology. This hybrid approach provides a maximum accuracy of 0.1 mm.
You can also choose between near and far scanning positions.
The SOL features an automatic turntable, making the 3D scanning process automated. The rotating table is able to support a maximum weight of 2 kg.
WHAT'S IN THE BOX?
* SOL 3D scanner
* Black-out tent to place your scanner in
* Black-out cover to cover the tent while scanning
* 2 USB cables to connect to USB 3.0 ports
* A duck - the scan target for your first scan
HIGH ACCURACY AUTOMATED 3D SCANNER
SOL PRO 3D scanner from Scan Dimension is a high accuracy desktop scanner for small and mid-sized objects.
Choose to focus on accuracy or speed with a simple mouse click. The high accuracy scanning mode scans your objects with an accuracy of up to 0.05 mm, while the turbo scanning mode takes just 8 minutes to complete a 360° scanning pass – including calibration and meshing. Note that speed in 3D scanning always depends on computer hardware and object complexity so be sure to check the system requirements.
This versatile, yet easily operated, scanner integrates seamlessly into any 3D workflow where the precision and quality make it a perfect partner for quality assurance, product inspection, prototyping, and a qualified addition to 3D printing tasks.

SOFTWARE INCLUDED
SOL PRO 3D scanner includes the highly automated software, SOL PRO Creator that delivers finished 3D scanning results with no need for manual alignment or removing of unwanted artefacts from the scans. Aligning up to 5 scanning passes and meshing are fully automated. The intuitive software includes an innovative option for optimized scanning of objects with dark or partially dark surfaces. And, if your object has trouble finding a stable position on the turntable, just tick the ‘Unstable object’ box.
SOL PRO Viewer software lets you view the 3D scanned models in different renderings and export to various third-party 3D software for further editing, measuring or 3D printing.
TECHNOLOGY
The scanner uses a combination of laser triangulation and white light technology. Texture and colors are captured with a camera with an 8 MP optically compensated resolution.

3D SCANNING LIMITATIONS
Apart from the object size limitations specific to SOL PRO, there are some well-known general challenges that you need to consider when 3D scanning:
- Moving or touching a 3D scanner while scanning will most likely result in inaccurate or failed scan
- Objects that change shape while scanning
- Holes in objects not visible to the camera
- Shiny or translucent surfaces
- Possible solution: Spray the object with a 3D developer spray - The meshing of scanning passes from two or more orientations may be problematic with symmetrical objects
- Possible solution: Attach something to the object to make the shape asymmetrica
