Preparation

Make some preparations when scanning different objects.

Markers

Markers shall be placed to models. If the device fails to recognize markers, it will not emit laser lines in the Laser Mode.

  • Place the markers evenly and randomly.
  • Four markers are required for the alignment at communal areas.
  • Ensure that the device's camera can scan at least 4 markers within the normal scanning range.
  • Please place small markers on the edges or at small facets of the model.
  • Do not place the markers on the surface with high curvature.
  • Do not use damaged or incomplete markers.
  • Do not use greasy, dusty, or dirty markers.

note

  • 3 mm markers are the minimum markers recognized in the Laser Mode.
  • 6 mm markers are the minimum markers recognized in the IR Mode.

Coded Targets

Coded targets are used to automatically form cutting planes during scanning, eliminating the need for manual creation.

Note

  • Coded targets do not participate in alignment during scanning.
  • No new markers will be generated below the cutting planes.
  • Cutting planes formed by coded targets will not disappear even after the original coded targets are removed.
  • Once six cutting planes exist, coded targets are no longer automatically identified as a new cutting plane.

Caution

Only Laser Mode supports automatic cutting plane generation.

For Portrait Scan

Specific requirements:

  1. Hairstyle: Please keep it as neat as possible and avoid hairstyles with loose strands or bangs; comb the hair before scanning.
  2. Clothing: Avoid wearing dark or reflective clothing (such as black leather shoes); do not wear accessories or glasses that may cause reflections.
  3. Posture: Since the scanned object(s) should remain as still as possible during the scanning process, a comfortable and easy-to-maintain posture is suggested before the scan begins.

For Special Objects

Spray the washable or specified imaging agent on the transparent, shiny or reflective model before scanning.

Note

Types of objects not recommended for scanning:

  • Soft material object that cannot be hung.
  • Moving or vibrating objects. Frequent changes in the coordinates of such objects will result in poor scanning quality.
