Prinpit Showcase Metrox/Mini2

As a passionate archer, I design grips for the various recurve bows. For this I need scans of the original grips and the corresponding centre pieces as a basis.
So far the grips have been scanned in several views (Mini2 or MetroX) and then merged in Revoscan.
Now there is the option of controlling the 2-axis turntable via Revoscan.
I have found various tools in MAKERWORLD that allow me to capture the complex handles in one scan.
I have printed the extensions for the 2-axis turntable from the following parts.

Thank you both very much for your ideas!

I designed various parts myself, such as the centre plate with the thread and the magnets. The upper ring was modified with through holes.

Below is an idea of the possibilities.

And here is the setup with the part to be scanned:

The handle was scanned in 5 rounds -30° / -15° / 0° / 15° / 30° in 7° steps in full-field mode.

Further processing took place in:

  • Alignment in GOM Inspect
  • Removal of the scan holder in Meshmixer or FUSION360

My suggestions to the development team:
It would be fantastic if it were possible to specify whether the scan should be clockwise or counter-clockwise for each round of the turntable.

Great design and scan! We will pass along your suggestions, thank you.

2nd round
I also need the riser for testing and presentation purposes.
I used the crosslaser mode for this.

The riser: (shiny red, with many holes, undercut and free-form surfaces)
Material: aluminium, milled and anodised

The preparation
The holder and scan markers were largely designed by me

Both scans were then automatically merged. (for my purposes I only need the centre part, so the ends were cut off).

Below is the part completed in Revoscan, which is still being reworked in Blender to create a stand.

Especially with such complex parts, the preparation, design and creation of tools is very important.

For the technically interested:
30051 frames were rendered for the first scan and 21896 frames for the second scan.
The creation of the point cloud took approx. 9 minutes in both cases.

Here are the specs of my PC:

  • INTEL I9-10900 CPU
  • 64GBytes DDR4 Ram
  • NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4070 12GByte

That’s great scan, I see you had not much issues with the red color when using Laser mode or you used spray ?

Thanks for sharing !

No spray, just crosslaser mode with marker tracking.
