This professional-grade, portable 3D scanner is the ideal solution for teachers looking to show students the benefit of hand-held 3D scanners and their use in real-life applications, such as reverse engineering, industrial design, and quality control.

Easy to set up and use by teachers and students of all levels, ACADEMIA 50 uses structured white-light technology to scan objects made of any material, surface type or colour. Its technical specifications highlight its performance levels, with an accuracy of up to 0.250 mm (0.010 in.) and a measurement resolution of up to 0.250 mm (0.010 in.).

ACADEMIA 3D scanners are part of a turnkey educational solution that includes 50 free seats of scan-to-CAD and inspection software to show students how to address any conventional or innovative engineering workflow, a five-year ACADEMIA Customer Care Plan, and self-training documentation. Creaform offers teachers a free Creaform ACADEMIA Sample Kit that gives academics didactic material to enhance their curricula.

Creaform also recently launched Go!SCAN SPARK and HandySCAN BLACK for researchers in science and engineering, applied sciences, and more. These two new 3D scanners put metrology-grade 3D measurement technologies into the hands of researchers for any type of project, regardless of complexity. The same industry-leading software, customer care plan, and documentation are available with these 3D scanners.
