Abstract

3D scanning technologies are potential tools for increasing productivity, accuracy, and ensuring high product quality. Laser triangulation-based 3D scanning has a wide range of applications in quality control, measurement, and reverse engineering, thereby making processes more efficient. The major advantage of this technology lies in its resolution and precision. However, it is highly sensitive to the surface and color of an object. This study presents the influence of surface and color of an object on the quality of the 3D scan model. The objects of scanning were coated with glossy and matte lacquer. The Range Vision Smart 3D scanner was used, which provided a scan in the form of a stereolithographic file, using the corresponding ScanCenter NG 2022.1 software.
