In this video we are kicking off a new series looking at the entire process of scanning to part design using a Revopoint Mini2 3D scanner.

We are going to walk through important decisions such as "do you need to scan?", "how do you prepare for scanning?", and "how do you capture good scan data?".

In Part 1 we are going to define the project of scanning a transmission cover for an RC Truck so we can have a scan based design. We will remove the part, set up our scan, spray the part, and capture multiple scans. We will give you tips like how to scan using features and what to do if your scan loses tracking. How do you know if you got good scan data, and how to identify problems before you get stuck in the processing and modeling phases.

Remember that we are a Revopoint affiliate and we have worked out a deal to provide some discounts when purchasing a MIRACO, INSPIRE, or MINI2. Below you will find affiliate links with the discount codes applied for each of those scanners as well as the codes themselves if you would like to manually enter them. The discount will vary at Revopoint's discretion based on their current promotions.

In Part 2 we will be diving into the processing of our scan data. What do we need to do before we bring a scan into CAD and how do we know we have a "Good" result?

In Part 3 we will dive into Fusion and design a new transmission cover for the RC10 truck using our scan data as a template. It is a good workflow using critical features while exploring unique designs. We will print the part, test fit, and conclude the project.
