Creaform Presents the Perfect 3D Scanning Solution for 3D Printing Applications

LÉVIS, Quebec, May 14, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

    Creaform's new Go!SCAN 3D scanners and VXmodel software provide the ideal, fully
integrated, professional-grade solution to capture real-world objects and send them to any
3D printer or CAD software.

    Creaform, a worldwide leader in portable 3D measurement solutions and 3D engineering
services, today presented the most versatile, portable and easy-to-use solution to create
reliable 3D content-to-print from existing objects
[http://www.creaform3d.com/en/metrology-solutions/vxmodel-and-goscan-3d-perfect-partner-3d-printers ]
. The Go!SCAN 3D white-light 3D scanners and VXmodel, a 3D scan-to-print
software module are the ideal solution for professionals in 3D printing and additive
manufacturing.

    When combining a handheld Go!SCAN 3D scanner

with VXmodel
[http://www.creaform3d.com/en/metrology-solutions/vxmodel-scan-cad-software-module ] and
its 3D-scan-to-print functionalities, users can scan any 3D object, clean up their meshes,
make them watertight, and quickly generate print-ready files. Thanks to VXmodel, they can
bypass the unnecessary post-treatment steps as well as quickly and easily prepare their
files to be printed in 3D.

    Go!SCAN 3D scanners & VXmodel software offer a wealth of benefits, including:

       
        - High speed 3D scanning: Typical objects are scanned in 5 minutes or less.
        - Professional-grade measurements: Accuracy of up to 0.1 mm (0.004 in.) and
          resolution of up to 0.2 mm (0.008 in.).
        - Full-color 3D models: Users can easily and simultaneously capture high-quality
          geometry and colors.
        - All the functionalities needed to prepare scan models for 3D printing:
          alignment, geometrical entities and cross-sections, mesh improvement, mesh editing,
          and more!
        - Independent solutions: Works perfectly with any 3D printer.
        - Complete and integrated support: Rely on Creaform's seasoned 3D scanning
          expertise and worldwide support.

    "Creaform's unique Go!SCAN 3D and VXmodel module are the perfect complement for
engineering and CAD professionals that use a 3D printer," said Francois Leclerc, Product
Manager. "The duo's seamless and quick integration with any 3D printing or CAD process
means that users no longer need to rely on third-party post-treatment software. This
enables them to get the job done faster. With the Go!SCAN 3D and VXmodel, they ultimately
get the optimal scan-to-print solution!"
