Thanks again for yet another great upload. Very informative and without beating about the bush. Quick question: there is an option (visible on the right pane on 8:00, for example) called "semi-rigid object" - is that for objects that can deform slightly when they are being turned on the other side? And what this option does anyways? Does it somehow compensate for these deviations in geometry or something?
Hey Andrey, Semi Rigid is turned on when you are 3D scanning objects that may move slightly. Typically when scanning a persons foot, arm, etc. Theoretically it could also work when your part slightly deforms as well. Too much deformation and the scanner might lose its position. It's always good to put at least 3 targets on the object as a place you can go back to and start scanning again.
I am doing a lot of research on understanding the scanners ( white light, Laser etc) but there are many grey areas that companies do not share. In your opinion is Arctec LEO achieves the same quality and accuracy as CREAFORM GO Scan spark?
Hi PK. In many ways they serve different markets. The Leo is great for archeology, art, statues, historical preservation and similar items. The GoSCAN Spark is meant for industrial design, product development, reverse engineering and even inspection. The GoSCAN Spark has a much higher resolution and is much more accurate and can even be used for inspection for some customers. If you are serious about purchasing one of these 3D scanners have your local representative visit you (or a live web demo) and do a real "live" benchmark. Pick out a few parts that are typical of what you do and have them 3D scan them. Also make sure you see the entire process of 3D scanning, post processing and exporting of an STL file. There are major differences between these scanners in regards to post processing speed. Also have them scan a ball bar or gage block and look at the accuracy. If either company doesn't want to do that I think you will have your answer.
With software like VXModel or Design X you can offset the scan and create a water tight shell at whatever thickness you want. This would be then ready to 3D print.

@@EMS3D Thank you for the explanation)
Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Work😇😇😇 i like it and hope we collaboration later

Hey how would you then transfer the scan to create a printed shell for creating moulds

how to reverse engineer this scan
Hi Mehfoozz, we would autosurface this model. Here is a video that may help. ua-cam.com/video/_skxR4IGVV4/v-deo.html
