Precision and versatility in 3D scanning
The CR-Scan Otter is an infrared structural light scanner that captures even the smallest details with an accuracy of up to 0,02 millimeters. The Otter even scans black or metallic objects without having to help. At the same time, a 24-bit color camera ensures that even fine color nuances are clearly reproduced.
One of the main features of the CR-Scan Otter is its large scanning area, which puts most competitors in its price range to shame. It can scan objects from 10 x 10 x 10 millimeters up to 2 x 2 x 2 meters in size from a distance of 110 millimeters to 1,2 meters. This makes it versatile, whether in the hobby sector, for example when scanning model components, or in professional applications such as industrial design.
When it comes to the software, Creality places great emphasis on a user-friendly working environment so that even 3D scanning beginners can get started quickly. OBJ, STL and PLY are supported as output formats. This means that the scans can be further processed in almost all 3D programs.
The speed is also impressive. With up to 20 images per second, even large scans are completed quickly. This saves time and makes the scanner efficient. Shaky hands are counteracted with an integrated motion sensor and real-time 3D imaging.
