Surface finish analysis is one of the most common applications of nano measurement, primarily because this field requires a high level of precision. Specialized equipment is necessary because traditional dimensional inspection technology is not able to capture surface characteristics such as texture, sharpness, flatness, and wear at the Nano level.
As a manufacturing executive or quality control director, you don’t always need to understand the rigorous details of every procedure that occurs during or after the production process. In fact, the necessary steps are sometimes so specialized that outsourcing them to a qualified provider makes more sense.
When people engage outsourced 3D scanning services, they don’t always know what happens behind the scenes. You might hand over your sample, describe the type of data output you need and leave the rest to the experts. Although there isn’t necessarily anything wrong with this scenario, the more you know about the 3D scanning process, the more you can be sure that the service you are getting is the best fit for your application.
3D scanning can be employed for a wide range of applications because it is a versatile technology that can be used for objects with various sizes, shapes, and surface characteristics. Although each application has different requirements, the core concept behind the technology remains the same: Dimensional coordinate data is collected and processed using point cloud software.
