Applications of Optix 400H <<Previous

The Optix 400H is derived from Optix 400M and has a high resolution lens which can provide more detailed feature definition than the Optix 400M. It is suitable for small and medium size parts scanning and serves as a middle solution between the Optix 400S and 400M.

The Optix 400H provides a high accuracy and may be used to image targets ranging from 100mm (4") to 400mm (16") in size. Additionally, larger targets may be imaged by combining multiple scans, which is easily accomplished using our software.

Typically, the largest market for 3D graphics is manufacturing. The product development process incorporates 3D graphics in all phases - from conceptual design, detailed part and assembly design to shop floor manufacturing. Within these areas are specialized requirements that can benefit from the application of 3D graphics. Digital design proliferates on the desktop. However, there is an untapped opportunity to provide this market with a practical way to convert physical models into digital models. This process has application in the following areas and is closely related to computer-aided design (CAD), computer-aided engineering (CAE), and computer-aided manufacturing (CAM):


  • Retrofitting, modification
• New product design using existing physical model as a basis
• Tooling from physical model
• Verifying the geometry of manufactured parts, which is an essential part of modern quality assurance and process control methods
• Pattern regeneration
• Rapid prototyping

Many applications exist for 3DD scanners in the medical field including:
 
  • Forensics
  • Prosthetic design
  • Reconstructive surgery
