3D Scanning in Birmingham

Our professional 3D scanning Birmingham services are carried out by a team of experienced technicians, using the best technology available today.

Our 3D scanning service Birmingham is an effective process that collects 3D point cloud data of an object that can then be used to create detailed 3D models. 3D scanning allows accurate modelling of an impressive range of items, from aircraft components to entire vehicles.

3D scanning is undertaken by trained and qualified engineers using a wide range of 3D scanning tools, including hand-held scanners and laser trackers produced by companies such as Zeiss and Artec. Once 3D point data has been collected through 3D scanning, the data can be processed using specialist software and turned into accessible STL files or other formats, which are then provided to the customer.

Our team are adept at working with a range of clients, across a number of sectors and industries. There’s no project too big or too small for us to work on. Data from 3D scanning projects is used for design and production work, and it can be combined with 3D printing services to create detailed prototypes and physical models.

The results of previous scanning projects in Birmingham have been used by clients to create film sets and produce animated shows, to design new tools and parts, to create new medical instruments and aid in the design and development of products for retail. Whatever project you envisage, our Birmingham team is ready to help you scan it into reality.

Renting 3D Scanning Equipment

Central Scanning provides an extensive in-house 3D scanning service in Birmingham, but we also offer the option of renting 3D scanners. Renting equipment allows you to undertake 3D scanning projects independently, which is an excellent option if you need the scanning to take place on company property.

In addition to renting 3D scanning equipment in Birmingham, Central Scanning can provide rentals options for 3D printers, too. This allows your company to scan, model and print prototypes for on-site projects.

If renting 3D scanning equipment in Birmingham, our technicians always provide full training in the use of the systems being rented out. This allows your team to work safely and efficiently with the 3D scanners, to produce high quality and accurate results independently.
