3D Scanning for Digital Manufacturing* (24 hours)

Banner_3D Scanning for Digital Manufacturing
*This is a non-WSQ module.

Introduction

3D scanning is the process of converting a physical object into a digital format, facilitating digitalisation in manufacturing. Using a 3D scanner, the shape and geometry of the object is collected from various angles and reconstructed, this results in a 3D model in digital format such as stl or stp file. The acquired 3D data can be used for:

  • First article inspection
  • Quantification of geometrical changes like deformation
  • CAD/CAM machining for production
  • Reverse engineering

This enables process and product optimization in a smart manufacturing environment. 

About the Programme

The attendees will become familiar with the principles of common 3D scanners based on laser, white light and x-ray technologies. Three-dimensional scanning approaches for both external and internal features, from simple to complex parts with varying surface finish will be described in detail. Common 3D measurements and simple reverse engineering approaches using will be explained.

This course consists of 3 full-day sessions including: a hands-on session using 3D scanners, data analysis, and reverse engineering. By the end of the course, the attendees will be able to recommend suitable 3D scanning technologies for their applications, and have a better appreciation for digital manufacturing. 

Who Should Attend

The course is suitable for those who are currently employed or wish to be employed in the manufacturing related fields. A typical candidate profile could be:

  • Quality control manager/engineer/technician
  • Process technician/engineer
  • Production supervisor/manager
  • Individuals and staff who are seeking capability improvement in terms of advanced and digital manufacturing



What our Trainees say

ASTAR_Icon_Business-19

Very good and structured course to provide more info on 3D scanning technologies. Engaging lessons that involve hands-on experience.
