APM Offers high quality 3D scanning
services for a wide variety of applications
and needs.
The results of scanning can
be offered as copious point cloud data or
orderly sections along principal planes or
parallel to any user defined plane. Point
cloud can also given as tessellated STL file.
The point cloud data generated
can be reliably read into all industry standard
CAD packages for further processing.
The scan data can be used for
–
• Reverse Engineering
• Part Inspection and CAD Comparison
• Input for Analysis
• Quality Analysis
• Rapid Prototyping
• Rapid Milling
APM uses ATOS Optical non – contact
white light scanning system and TRITOP Photogrammetry
system from M/s Gom mbH, Germany for 3D-Scanning.
This technology is currently considered the
best in the field of 3d-scanning due to various
advantages-
• Points are scanned on the surface
of the part hence no complex compensation
is required and so errors due to wrong compensation
are avoided.
• A wide variety of parts
and materials can be easily scanned including
metal, wood, plastic, glass, epoxy, modeling
clay, soft materials like foam, rubber etc
• A wide range of size
can be accommodated on a white light scanner
varying from 5mm to 10000mm ( yes it is 10000
mm or 10m)
• A very high density
of point cloud data is generated
• The process is many times faster than
conventional contact type methods.
• As part orientation can be changed
during the process so scanning of all sides
of the part can be done without expensive
fixturing.
• It is possible to scan
the inner details of parts like castings etc
after cutting, without loosing the datum.
• There is no limitation
on the job weight so heavy parts like dies
and moulds, complete two wheelers and four
wheelers can be easily scanned.
• The system is portable
and can move to the site for scanning.
