Two Worlds of 3D Scanning: What Really Separates Consumer 3D Scanners from Metrology-Grade 3D Scanners

  • 3D scanning has recently grown rapidly to cover a wider market with two main types emerging: consumer and metrology-grade scanners.
  • Consumer scanners prioritize portability, ease of use, and affordability, while metrology-grade scanners focus on accuracy and reliable measurements for industrial inspections and quality control.
  • Metrology-Grade scanners not only digitize objects but also determine the trustworthiness and reliability of measurements beyond simple digitization.
  • Industrial scanners, such as those from SHINING 3D with ISO/IEC 17025-accredited laboratories, ensure measurement results meet strict industry standards and exemplify the industrial focus on measurement accuracy.
