Laser tracker measurement is a portable approach to high-precision 3D inspection that is well suited to large parts and assembled structures. A laser tracker is a portable metrology instrument that measures the 3D coordinates of a target using a laser beam and a reflector. The instrument can be set up on the factory floor and […]
3D printing builds parts layer by layer from digital models. The technology has become popular across prototyping, production, art, and design, and it continues to play a larger role in manufacturing. But not every 3D printing process works the same way. FDM, SLS, and DMLS each use a different approach to material, and each […]
Onsite Faro arm laser 3d scanning for Dimensional Inspection Manufacturers in 2026 rely on industrial 3D scanning services to capture precise measurements of parts, tools, and assemblies. These services use high precision laser scanners, structured light, and industrial CT to collect millions of data points that form accurate digital models. From reverse engineering legacy components to performing […]
Industrial CT Scanning was introduced in 1972 when the invention of the CT Scanner was created. Godfrey Hounsfield’s invention later earned him a Nobel Prize in medicine. Although the original intent was for the medical field, the creation of industrial scanning has helped with the internal inspection of parts without any physical cutting needed. […]
As the world is progressing, technology is evolving rapidly. We are always ready to opt for the change and go for the betterment. Likewise, we have this technological innovation in the printing field; reverse engineering can help you to totally rethink your industrial process and help advance it. However, it is not easy to develop […]
Let’s talk about 3D printing, which is also known as additive manufacturing. This process of 3d printing involves the creation of a three-dimensional object or structure. It goes layer by layer with the help of digitally created designs. With the help of 3D printing services, you can make functional shapes and designs. Evolution of scanning […]
Blow molds are used for mainly containers, toys, or other molded objects that need to contain a volume of air or liquid in them. They only mold the outer shapes by blowing a hollow tube of molten plastic, which gets molded by the cavity shapes of the blow mold. Usually, there are two halves of […]
Applications 3D was approached with the challenge of organic 3D Scanning. Particularly the organic objects were horse bones that needed to be replicated for use in veterinary study programs. They required 3D scanning because they wanted to take the data and create 3D-printed replicas of the bones. This is because the 3D-printed parts will be […]
An important step in the product development cycle is the prototyping of a newly designed part, so that it can be reviewed for fit and function. The color and material properties of this prototype can be different than the the final molded or stamped part, but it provides the CAD designer with information about the […]
November 13, 2014 Applications 3D presented its equipment, products, and capabilities at the Amcon show in Novi, Michigan. The show is a manufacturing trade show where companies from all over come to show what they offer. This was another successful Amcon show, the booth was very popular for the technical personnel, as well as people […]
