Hello everyone!
It’s a 3D-scanning time!
Are you ready for it?
Here i’ll publish my first scans with a MINI 2 3D-scanner.
If you like my showcases, you can support me and buy Mini 2 by the links below:

I want to start with an easily recognizable thing - it is airpods.
First of all, i want to focus you on precision of a MINI 2. So, let’s chek our dimensions:
It is 5.75mm.
Here you can see a 3D-scanned with MINI 2 Model:
And here i checked this dimension in software:
WOW! It’s 5.7573!
Now i am hesitate, what tool is more accurate, my 0.05mm graded caliper or a MINI2 with it’s 0.02 single shot precision?

The next one is a pendant in the shape of a dragon wing.
I did make two scans and then, i combined them in Revo Scan 5.4.2 software
Then i made a mesh model
And cleaned up in Meshmixer
Here you can see a dimensions measured by a caliper and in a software:
This model could be used for 3D-printing in a castable resin.

Logitech Pebble M350 Casing.
I made a scan of top and bottom parts.
Mouse width measured by a caliper is 58.85mm
3D-Models.
Bottom part:
Top part:
After scanning process and merging, i cleaned models in the Meshmixer.
Now, we are ready to make a measurements:
Model width was measured in meshmixer and it is 58.85752mm.
It differ from a caliper value by 58.85752-58.85 = 0.00752mm

3D Scanning an assembly of a lego gears.
For the time economy, i put three different gears on a shaft and made a scan of the assembly.
I didn’t use any mating spray on it. Here is a setup:
Here is a model:

Here is a black object. It is a tire from a toy car.
I put some mating spray on it.

This is a drone Impeller. It is tiny and it has a complex surface. Lets scan it!
I made a two different scans and merged them by points in a Revo Scan software.
Here is a model.

And the last - it is recreation in a nylon like resin on mSLA 3D-printer:

The next one scan - it is a 3/4 adapter for a manometer.
I measured a 24.05mm distance with a caliper.
Here is a scanning process:
I made two scans and merged them:
Look at this! It captured an inner surface very well!
And here are dimensions measured in the software:
24.05mm was measured by a caliper
24.02mm was measured in a software

3D-Scanning and 3D printing a door keys.
Here is a scanning process:
The result:
I recreated them in a nylon like resin on a mSLA 3D printer:
And yeah, they are able to open a door!

Using MINI 2 for reverse engineering a small gear for a rare actuator.
3D scanning process:
Measuring of the shaft with a caliper:
It is between 2.1 and 2.15mm.
I made two models and merged them in a Revo Scan 5.4.2
The result:
Measuring a shaft in a software:
It is 2.116mm.
Reverse engineered model:
3D printed in a nylon like resin:
Installed into a reductor:
Dimension accuracy is perfect!
Measured by a caliper diameter is 2.1-2.15mm
Software shows 2.116mm.

3D Scanning a skull from a medical university.
To be or not to be that is the question!
I put it on a transparent holder that is invisible for a 3D-scanner.
Most difficult part of a scanning was to get a perfect scanning distance. Most of the time i hold scanner manually and tried to reach “excellent” zone.
And here are the results.

Here is a synthes medical gearbox housing.
I put a mating spray on it (IPA+powder).
3D-scanning in a feature mode:
As you can see, there is only a small amount of powder on a model surface. But, mini 2 is able to capture details without a problems.
The result:
As you can see, MINI 2 was able to capture a thread:
And here are dimension comparisons.
Measured by a caliper:
Width = 26.9mm
Measured in a software:
Width = 26.9008mm
Difference = 26.9008-26.9 = 0.008mm!!!
Measured by a caliper:
Diameter is 7.9mm
Measured in a software:
Diameter is 7,845mm
Difference = 7.9-7.845 = 0,055mm!!!
This is really amazing accuracy!

Incredible results, just what you need when working with small objects.
How are the initial fused point clouds coming out? Are they relatively clean or do they require some work?

Thanks! It strongly depends on distance and model shape. On my opinion, point clouds are much cleaner than what i got with mini-1. So, yes, models are relatively clean.

Hello everyone!
Here is another one mini-2 case.
It is a Mercedes-Benz GLK air deflector panel. The goal is to adapt this model to a 2008 version of Mercedes.

Thank you for sharing it!The results looks great!
May I ask how you divided it into two parts for the scanning? Did you scan the front and back?
And, what reverse engineering software are you using?
