▤ Summary

3D scanners are extremely valuable tools that offer time and money saving benefits, but sometimes the object being scanned can provide some challenges. Watch the video below to learn how to accurately capture hole dimensions with a 3D scanner. In this case, I am going to use a couple of little wooden dowel pins with the correct diameter inserted into each of the holes. One quick sketch and an extrude feature to add some extra geometry to my model, and I can export to Geomagic Control X, my QA software of choice. Our applications experts have years of experience working with various types of scanners in a wide variety of industries.
