Are you in the market for a desktop 3D scanner? Looking for something that offers good, reliable performance at a reasonable price?
Our stationary EinScan solutions may be just what you need. With the EinScan-SP V2 and the EinScan-SE V2, you'll experience smooth workflows and obtain precise 3D data.
The best desktop 3D scanner is the one that fits your use case. Use our product selector (no email required) to help figure out the right balance between specs and price.
You can also take your time and look at dozens of user case studies and stories for inspiration. SHINING 3D users all around the world are using their desktop 3D scanners for Art & Heritage, Design,Healthcare, Manufacturing & Reverse Engineering, andResearch & Education applications.
All you have to do is place your object on the automatic turntable, and the software takes control. It can order the turntable to pivot at a given amount of degrees – say, 40 degrees – for an optimal amount of scans.
Plus, you don't need to worry about losing track when flipping objects over. Our intelligent software will recognize the object's features and automatically merge the scans.
Our desktop 3D scanners, the EinScan-SE V2 and SP V2, use structured light technology. This works by projecting a light pattern onto the object. The 3D scanner’s camera then takes a picture of the illuminated object, registering the pattern’s deformation.
By comparing the original pattern to the deformed one, the 3D scanner software is able to determine the object’s 3D shape.
The process, which takes a few seconds, repeats several times for each of the object's sides.
Once each face has been scanned, you obtain a 3D point cloud with hundreds of thousands of points. These XYZ coordinates form triangles which, together, form a 3D mesh.
Choosing SHINING 3D is choosing expertise, innovation, and exceptional customer experience. In 2015, after over 10 years of developing 3D digitizing technologies for industrial clients, we decided to pour our knowledge and experience into more accessible products. The EinScan series was born, with the EinScan-S.
Thousands of schools, small businesses, and makers have been able to access 3D scanning through the EinScan series.
And we’ve also learned a lot along the way. Our team keeps improving both hardware and software based on our users’ most common pain points. More features, cleaner UX, better translations, enhanced ergonomics – we’re on a mission to provide you with the best desktop 3D scanning experience.
Today, we’re offering our third generation of desktop 3D scanners: the EinScan-SE V2 and SP V2.
Our application engineers are here to help.
