Product design & prototyping with 3D scans
From accessory to full enclosure: 3D scanning accelerates design whenever you have to work around an existing shape — a human body, a vehicle interior, a historical part or an already-built prototype.
Perfectly fitting designs
By scanning the existing environment first, you can design a new part that fits precisely — with no trial and error. Think of a custom bracket, an aerodynamic cowl, or a medical device that perfectly matches the patient.
Large objects? EinScan Libre
For vehicles, furniture, machinery or architectural elements the Libre is the right pick: metrology accuracy over metres. For smaller products and fine detail work the EinScan Rigil is faster and more flexible.
To prototype and production
The scan-to-CAD workflow feeds 3D printers, CNC machines or injection moulds directly, cutting the time from concept to working prototype from weeks to days.
Recommended scanners for this application
Shining EinScan Libre
Wireless 3D scanner with touchscreen and high accuracy. Quickly scans large objects and fine details, even on dark or reflective surfaces.
Shining EinScan Rigil
The Shining 3D EinScan Rigil series combines wireless freedom, hybrid light technology and three scan modes for fast, highly accurate 3D scans.
Related applications
Reverse engineering starts with an accurate 3D scan of an existing part. A professional Shining 3D EinScan scanner captures shape, dimensions and surfaces in minutes, ready to be converted into an editable CAD model.
3D scanning enables a fast and complete dimensional check of produced parts. A colour-coded deviation report against the CAD reference immediately reveals where tolerances are exceeded — far more complete than callipers or single-point CMM measurements.
3D scanning has become standard practice in museums, restoration studios and archaeological projects. Contact-free, safe for fragile objects, and with full colour and texture capture.
3D scanning replaces plaster and manual moulds in modern orthopaedics and prosthetics. Faster, more hygienic and more comfortable for the patient — and immediately available digitally for CAD and 3D printing.
