3D Models

Artec Leo is often called in when the height of the object to be 3D scanned approximates that of a Yeti. Why?

This lion is one of two nearly identical bronze animals prowling alongside the steps of a town hall. Mounted on a pedestal, it was a bit hard to reach, but not for Leo — its namesake!

Lone Sailor Memorial • Leo

This bronze monument overlooking San Francisco Bay was captured in full daylight with Artec Leo in only 45 minutes, as the sun was rising up above the water.

Lu Yu • Space Spider

A statue of the Chinese Sage of Tea scanned with Artec Space Spider.

Magic Potion bottle • Space Spider

Need to scan a transparent object? Use an Artec 3D scanner. This model of a transparent magic potion bottle was created with Space Spider.

Medium-sized screw • Space Spider

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

Metal cutting blade • Space Spider

This cutting blade was a great training instrument for scanning thin objects.

Metal nut • Micro

A metal nut, just over 15 mm, easily scanned with Artec Micro in just two scans. Unlike handheld scanners, Micro was able to scan this piece without the need for any additional features or background.

Michel Rodange monument • Combo

This tall statue in central Luxembourg, which commemorates one of the most famous local writers, was easily captured using a synergy of the wireless handheld 3D scanner Artec Leo and the tripod-mounted laser scanner Artec Ray.

Motorcycle Crankcase • Space Spider

With its gleaming surface and elaborate details, including sharp edges, numerous holes and hard-to-reach notches, the crankcase could well be a pain for any scanning specialist, but not with Space Spider.

Motorcycle Upper Triple Clamp • Space Spider

Designed for working with small mechanical parts and organic shapes, Artec Space Spider managed to capture all the tiny elements, multiple holes of different diameters, shiny metallic finish, and hidden areas of this object.

Part of a mining machine • Leo

This 3D scanning project embodies a confluence of factors that could have complicated effective capture and reconstruction of the wild variety of shapes that needed to be captured and reconstructed in this case.

Pipe bend • Micro

A pipe bend, scanned with Artec Micro. It took only two scans using the simple trajectory to get the full shape of the pipe.

Plaster cast of teeth • Micro

This object is considered as «large» for trajectory purposes. Although we used only a «simple» type of trajectory, with fewer frames, all of the intricate curvatures were successfully captured.

Plastic bolt • Micro

Despite its complex geometry and reflective surface, this 1.5 cm plastic bolt was captured using the ultra-precise Artec Micro in just three scans.

Product part • Space Spider

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.

Pumpkin • Combo

To create this high-quality 3D model, both the interior and exterior of this bright orange pumpkin were scanned using Eva and Space Spider.

Screw • Micro

Small object — big challenge. How do you capture the thread of this 10 mm long screw using a 3D scanner?

Shampoo bottle cap • Micro

The cap was made of semi-transparent plastic and required a bit of dusting with an airbrush. Then it was mounted on the scanner’s rotating platform with a clamp. A couple of mouse clicks — and scanning commenced.

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.

Socket cap screw • Micro

This model of a tiny screw was captured with Artec Micro in just 6 minutes.

Spanner • Space Spider

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

Statue Dragonfly tamer • Eva

A bronze statue of a fairytale boy taming a giant dragonfly, made by famous sculptor Katib Mamedov. Dragonfly wings were a challenge since there was little surface on them, and no background to make it easier.

Stone corner piece • Eva Lite

An architectural piece, scanned with Eva Lite.There's plenty of clearly visible ornaments that makes tracking simple and reliable.
