3d scanner price image
Ella. H
I would like to create a 3D database (files readable in AutoCad or 3DsMax) of an important collection of antic statues of the museum i work in.
But i don't know what tools / equipement i need, and how much it cost. Help me please, i need it.
Answer
3D scanners are available including smaller scale with finer detail that would require moving the pieces to the scanner and larger scale where laser beams scan from semiportable devices that can be taken to the statues.
I would expect the former to cost $500 to $1000 and the latter to range upward from there.
The problem is that costs will vary by your location and the services available locally. An area with a number of firms making 3D scans for parts reproduction, etc. will have better opportunities than one in the boondocks.
This search for "3D scanning Dallas" produces about as many prime choices as I expected

with prices from a miniature USB item under $90 to $9000 hardware and many services - I expect that there will be some distortion of what I saw as Google tries to force items from your area into the search, but Dallas should provide a sample and you can check out both your immediate area and the nearest big city if you are not in one.

how can 3D model is able to replica? using machine?
kryslian88
i was wondering if any of vinyl statues that are replica by using machine technology if is that so then what kind of machine? and what are the price?
use scanning or digital cameras all of the perspectives of the 3D models to make replicas too?
Answer
there are scanners that read a 3 d figure (this is often how small scale figures are reproduced much much larger) Molds are then made (for multiples like the junk from China we buy at Walmart) from metal, and there are machines that squirt resin or liquid plastic into the molds. They then run down a conveyer and are dumped out into big boxes, packed up and shipped out around the world. These machines are very costly, but produce the product at a penny or less each, and then we buy this crap for $10-$150, so if they sell oh, say 10,000 of them they have paid for their machine...
if you want to reproduce your own art work, go to a model maker (in phone book) and ask how much it would be to make molds, and then you can go to a plastics fabricator who does this for other people. Unless you have plenty of capital to start up your own factory.
If you want to just reproduce 100 or so, then yo can learn to make your own molds from a book and make them yourself with liquid resin.
