The cost of 3D scanning a part can range from R1792.00 to R 17920.00 or more. Depending on the 3D scanning technology used, our rates range between R1792.00 and R3584.87 per hour. The cost is ultimately determined by the size and complexity of the 3D scanned part.
Is it worthwhile to invest in a 3D scanner?
While a high-resolution solution can cost anywhere from $20K to $170K or more, it’s important to remember that when it comes to quality, you don’t want to skimp on price. For many professional applications, the added resolution is worth the cost of a high-resolution 3D scanner.
How long does 3D scanning an object take?
The scanning process (along with post-processing of scan data) can take anywhere from half an hour to several hours, depending on the size, shape, and complexity of the object.
Can I use my phone to scan 3D objects?
Polycam is a popular 3D scanning app that was designed for iOS but is also compatible with Android devices. Polycam can create 3D models from a collection of photos. Alternatively, if your mobile device includes lidar, you can scan spaces in real time.
Can you scan something for 3D printing?
3D printers cannot copy or scan an object; however, if you scan an object with another tool, such as a 3D scanner or a simple scanner app on your phone, you can process it to 3D print on your printer.
