Standard 3D Scanning Service

Overview

Standard 3D scanning provides a fast and accurate method for capturing the three-dimensional data of physical objects. It is an essential tool in product design, quality inspection, and prototype development. Whether for small to medium components or complex geometries, professional scanning equipment enables precise digital processing to generate high-accuracy models. The resulting data can be directly applied to CAD design, 3D printing, CNC machining, or reverse engineering, helping to shorten development cycles, enhance design precision, and reduce production risks. This service is ideal for businesses and individuals requiring long-term data preservation or subsequent modification, serving a wide range of applications across industrial, research, and educational fields.

Discover Our Core Strengths

1

Precision Capture

Utilizing high-accuracy 3D scanning technology, we capture complete geometric shapes and fine surface details with exceptional precision
 regardless of size or structural complexity  ensuring reliable and accurate data output.

High Precision Scanning
2

Efficient Workflow

Our process enables rapid data acquisition, allowing scanned models or parts to be digitally repaired and modified directly on the computer. This streamlines design and manufacturing, supports faster iteration, and reduces overall time and cost.

3

Versatile Applications

3D scanned models can be visualized, edited, and used across digital platforms — including VR, AR, and animation — providing flexibility for creative and technical applications.

Industrial 3D Scanning

Simple Five-Step Scanning Process

1

Object Evaluation

Assess the object’s size, material, and precision requirements to determine the most suitable scanning solution.

2

Surface Preparation

For reflective or transparent materials, surface treatment or powder coating is applied to ensure scanning accuracy.

3

Data Scanning

Capture complete geometric data and surface details using high-precision 3D scanners.

4

Data Processing

Clean, align, and reconstruct point cloud data to generate a complete 3D model.

5

Model Output

Export the model in formats such as STL, OBJ, or PLY for use in design, 3D printing, or visualization.

Option 4


Obtain both the digital file and the 3D printed output produced from the scanned model.

Scanning Guidelines

 To ensure a smooth and accurate scanning process, please note the following:

Scanning Plan
Provide Reference Photos and Dimensions

Send multi-angle photos and approximate size for a quick quotation.

Size Limitations

Minimum object size: 5 cm³. Contact us for special cases.

Object Color

Black, transparent, or reflective items need powder coating for best results.

Frequently Asked Questions

Standard 3D scanning is designed for digitizing general products, models, and objects, using professional scanning equipment to quickly generate accurate 3D models.
Suitable for:
•3D Printing
Display and presentation purposes
• Basic model archiving
• Visual reference
• Simple reverse engineering
Compared to high-precision industrial-grade solutions, this option offers lower costs and faster turnaround times.
General accuracy is approximately ±0.1mm to ±0.3mm, depending on the size of the object, surface material, and scanning method.
Suitable for most display, design, printing, and basic engineering purposes.
If precision assembly or moulding is involved, it is recommended to choose a high precision scanning plan.
Common examples include:
• Figures / Models
• Sculptures
• Daily Items
• Industrial Parts
• Casing Products
• Toys
• Artworks
Generally not recommended for ultra-small precision parts or projects with extremely high tolerance requirements.
The standard file formats for submission are STL, OBJ, and PLY, which can be used for design, 3D printing, or display. If other formats are required, please specify when placing the order, and the AIO Studio technical team will output according to the intended use.
Yes.
Please refer to our Full-Color 3D Scanning Service page for more details.
For website display, AR, or animation applications, a full-color scanning solution is recommended.
Yes, but some materials will increase scanning difficulty, such as:
• Black Glossy Materials
• Transparent Glass / Plastic Parts
• Metallic Mirror
Such objects generally require the use of professional scanning spray powder for surface treatment to enhance scanning results. The spray powder can be cleaned off and will not permanently affect the object.
Basic scanning will include:
• Mesh Cleanup
• Basic Hole Filling
• Noise Cleaning
However, if you require:
• High Precision Model Repair
• Production-Grade Model
• Surface Reconstruction
• STEP Engineering File
Then additional post-processing will be required.
The maximum size for scanned objects is 60cm × 60cm × 60cm, and the minimum is 5cm × 5cm × 5cm. If the object size exceeds this range or has special requirements, please feel free to inquire in advance.
Yes, but with limitations. If the object contains holes or hollow structures deeper than 5mm, areas that are not illuminated will have missing surfaces and cannot be scanned. The final file will be displayed as a solid 3D graphic and will not include the object's surface colour.
The applications are extremely broad, covering fields such as architectural engineering, automotive parts, toy models, ceramic sculptures, electronic products, animation production, film props, art installations, urban planning, and virtual reality, suitable for both businesses and individuals.
The standard turnaround time is 7 working days; for urgent requests, there are options for 2 working days and same-day rush service. Same-day rush must be delivered by 12 noon and can be picked up by 8 PM the same day, please inform us in advance.
We offer asite scanning service, we can send staff to the designated location for scanning services. Suitable for:
• Large items
• Equipment that is inconvenient to move
• On-site installations
• Exhibits
On-site services will be quoted based on location and project content.
Charges depend on the plan, starting from a minimum of $200. Plan one: retrieve the file (STL/OBJ formats, etc.) after scanning is completed; plan two: modifications or processing according to specified requirements; plan three: if scanning is not possible, manual precision measurement by technicians; plan four: direct 3D printing after scanning, obtaining both the file and the finished product.
Please provide the following information:
• Photos of the item (multiple angles)
• Dimensions
• Quantity
• Purpose (printing / display / engineering, etc.)
• Whether post-processing is required
We will provide a preliminary assessment and suggested plan after receiving the information.
