Case Study

Steelstruct: Reducing Heavy Machinery Inspection from Days to Hours

"We chose the FreeScan Trak Nova for its versatility, portability because it's wireless, and because it's also metrology grade. It caters to our wide range of applications, from mine site to workshop, from small parts to very large parts. Other solutions that I've used in the past would have taken days to achieve the same task, and it now takes mere hours with the FreeScan Trak Nova."

Tristan Barrie, Senior Engineer, Steelstruct.

Babylon Engineering: Scaling Up to Full-Vehicle Digitization

"The Nova gives us a wider range of capabilities, more flexibility, and the vision to do bigger parts, larger areas, and full automobiles. The product itself is highly efficient, very accurate, and robust. The software also marries well with the hardware, so you have fewer bugs, and even quite large files are easily handled with the Nova."

Saad, Babylon Engineering.

Case Study

FH Aachen: Digitizing a Full-Scale Aircraft

"The 3D scanning of a whole aircraft is very challenging. We needed to scan the propeller with high resolution, and capture the body, wings, and flaps in different positions to simulate aerodynamics. By combining the FreeScan Trak Nova scanner and tracker without any restrictive cables, we were able to get the high-detail data we needed of the whole airplane efficiently."

Mohamed Firas M'Baya, PhD Student & Joita Christian-Gabriel, Application Engineer

Frequently Asked Questions

Looking for something specific? Let us know, and we’ll be happy to assist you.

How can I enhance the level of detail in a scan data?

Since the FreeScan Trak Nova features two scanning sensors, you can first perform a large-area scan with UE Nova and then refine specific areas by switching to TE Nova for higher-resolution scanning. If using only TE Nova, the software offers Partial HD scanning, allowing resolution enhancement for intricate regions.

What are the advantages of FreeScan Trak Nova?

FreeScan Trak Nova provides an optimal solution for small businesses or individual users who require high-quality scanning without the need for marker registration. Its tracking volume is well-suited for single-room setups. Additionally, it supports UE Nova for large-scale scanning, enabling efficient measurement of extensive parts.

What is the battery life in wireless mode?

In wireless mode, TE Nova can operate for up to 2.5 hours, while UE Nova lasts approximately 1 hour. Both devices use standard swappable batteries, enabling continuous scanning without interruptions.

How can accuracy be improved when scanning large parts?

The system utilizes SHINING 3D’s patented video-based photogrammetry technology to enhance overall accuracy. UE Nova supports a maximum photogrammetry working distance of 3.5 meters, enabling efficient capture and generation of global marker files for improved precision.

Is a router required for wireless mode? Can the system connect directly to a computer via a wireless connection?

A Wi-Fi router is necessary for operating the system in wireless mode. SHINING 3D includes a router in the package, but if you prefer to use your own, we recommend a Wi-Fi 6 router for optimal performance.

How often should the system be calibrated?

It is recommended to calibrate the system every two weeks. Additionally, if there are changes in operating temperature, location, or other environmental factors, calibration should be performed before scanning to ensure optimal accuracy.
