3D Scanning for Automotive Industry
Innovation and cutting-edge technology have always been the driving forces behind advancements in the automotive industry. One such breakthrough is 3D scanning, a revolutionary technique that empowers designers, manufacturers, and repair technicians to obtain precise and intricate measurements of physical objects in three dimensions.
At its core, 3D scanning involves using specialized equipment like laser scanners to meticulously capture the shape, size, and surface characteristics of objects. This invaluable data serves as the foundation for creating digital models that have a myriad of applications.
Another important use of 3D scanning in the automotive industry is for quality control and inspection. By scanning components during the manufacturing process, manufacturers can ensure that they meet the required specifications and tolerances. Any deviations from the desired measurements can be quickly identified and addressed, helping to prevent defects and reduce waste.
With our metrology grade scanner that meets VDI/VDE 2634 part 3 standard and is ISO 17025 certified, we can scan automotive parts and assemblies to micron accuracy and provide traceable dimensional analysis using Polyworks Inspector software. Certified by PTB (Physikalisch-Technische Bundesanstalt), Polyworks Inspector meets latest ASME and ISO standards and offers a suite of 3D Metrology functions.
3D scanning plays a pivotal role in vehicle maintenance and repair. V3D Technologies can scan damaged components and generate digital models that aid in 3D printing replacement parts. This is particularly valuable when dealing with rare or difficult-to-find components that may not be readily available through conventional channels.
