3D scanning – Fast and precise measurement of objects
We offer precise 3D scanning of physical objects – either at our location or directly at yours. The scan creates a digital copy of the object, which can be used for everything from quality control and documentation to further development and production. Do you need to adapt, optimize, or recreate a component? In addition to scanning, we also offer product development and manufacturing, allowing you to go directly from idea to finished product.

Do you have a physical part you want to recreate, adapt or document? With 3D scanning, we can quickly and accurately create a digital copy that can be used for production, quality control or further development.
How does 3D scanning work?
Scanning
The object is scanned with advanced technology, which captures its geometry down to a precision of 0.02 mm.
Finishing
The digital model is cleaned and optimized, so that it can be used, for example, in CAD software or for 3D printing.
Application
The finished model can, for example, be used for design changes, production, or quality control.
Benefits of 3D scanning
Perfect for complex geometries that are otherwise difficult to measure.
Fast and precise digitization – Get an accurate digital model without manual measurement.
Fewer errors and time savings – No need for guesswork or manual reconstruction.
So what can 3D scanning be used for?
Reverse engineering
Recreation of worn, defective, or discontinued spare parts.3D scanning can achieve a perfect fit.
Custom modification
Tailored solutions for specific needs. Certain objects may be too geometrically complex for manual measurement; in such cases, 3D scanning offers a huge advantage.
Quality control
Check if a manufactured part matches the original design. With 3D scanning, it is possible to verify many measurement aspects of an item that would traditionally require very expensive machinery.

Frequently asked
What is 3D scanning, and how does it work?
3D scanning is a process of collecting data about the form and appearance of a physical object to create a digital 3D model. This is done using specialized equipment that captures the object's surface and converts it into digital data
What objects can be 3D scanned?
With our equipment, we can scan a wide range of objects, from small items measuring 10x10x10 mm to larger objects up to 4000x4000x4000 mm. This includes everything from small components to larger structures.
Is it possible to 3D scan in color?
Yes, thanks to a 48-megapixel RGB camera, we can create colorful and textured 3D models that accurately represent the object's appearance.
How long does a 3D scan take?
The time varies depending on the size and complexity of the object. With a scanning speed of up to 15 frames per second, smaller objects can be scanned in a few minutes, while larger or more complex objects can take several hours.
Can objects with reflective or dark surfaces be 3D scanned?
Yes, but these surfaces may require pre-treatment, such as the application of a matte spray, to ensure accurate scanning.
How do I receive the scanned data?
After the scan, we will deliver the digital 3D models electronically via email, download link, or on a physical device, depending on your preferences. We deliver the finished 3D models in standard formats such as PLY, OBJ, and STL, which are compatible with most 3D software applications.
How accurate are 3D scanned models?
The precision depends on the equipment used. With our equipment, we can achieve a precision of up to 0.02 mm, ensuring a high level of detail in the digital models. However, the average accuracy is expected to be 0.1 +- mm.
Is it possible to 3D scan humans or living beings?
Yes, we can scan humans and animals. However, it is important that the one being scanned can remain still during the process to ensure accurate results. The scan itself can easily last several minutes.
What is the cost of a 3D scan?
The price depends on several factors, including the object's size, complexity, and desired finishing services. Please contact us for a customized quote based on your specific needs. The basic price is DKK 600, including file post-processing.
Can I use my smartphone for 3D scanning?
Yes, there are several apps for both iOS and Android that allow you to use your smartphone's camera for 3D scanning. While these apps don't match the precision of professional 3D scanners, they are a good starting point for less demanding tasks. If you need higher resolution, you can benefit from using our 3D scanning service.
Is it possible to 3D scan furniture?
Yes, 3D scanning of furniture is possible and often used in design and manufacturing processes. By scanning existing furniture, designers can create precise digital models for reproduction or modification. This is especially useful for customisation and digital archiving of furniture designs.
Can you 3D scan a car?
Yes, it is possible to 3D scan a car. 3D scanning is used in the automotive industry for various purposes, including design, reverse engineering, and quality control. Modern 3D scanners can accurately capture complex shapes and surfaces, making them ideal for scanning vehicles.
How to 3D scan buildings or large structures?
3D scanning of buildings and large structures is typically performed using laser scanners or photogrammetry. These technologies capture detailed measurements of the structure, resulting in an accurate digital representation. This method is useful for architectural documentation, renovation projects, and Building Information Models (BIM).
Can 3D scanning damage my object?
No, 3D scanning is a non-contact method and will not damage your object. The process typically involves the use of light or laser, which are safe for most materials.
What is the difference between 3D scanning and photogrammetry?
3D scanning uses specialized equipment to capture an object's shape using laser or structured light, providing precise measurements. Photogrammetry, on the other hand, involves taking multiple photographs of an object from different angles and using software to create a 3D model. While photogrammetry can be more accessible, 3D scanning generally offers higher precision.
How can 3D scanning be used for quality control?
By 3D scanning a physical object and then comparing the collected digital data with the original 3D model (which defines the design specifications), any deviations or errors can be quickly identified. This method enables:
Precise error detection: Even small discrepancies between the object and the model can be detected, which is crucial in production processes with high demands for accuracy.
This approach is a valuable tool in modern quality control, as it combines advanced scanning technology with powerful digital analysis.
