Can’t seem to get it to scan anything… Can’t seem to get it to scan anything right except the duck that came with it. Will try again but seriously thinking of returning it.

Best 3D scanner I have used I bought the SOL 3D scanner because I needed to scan spare parts for my Robots.I chose the SOL because I really liked how thorough and complete the information and documentation was. I emailed the company and asked questions and they were more than happy to get into a discussion with me. I think that was really great and missing with most companies now. I actually timed myself, and from the moment I opened the box, assembled it, downloaded from the website and installed all the software, connected to my computer, calibrated it and scanned my first object, saved the STL file to an SD card and started printing on the 3D printer, it only took 56 minutes. And it was perfect. The image was crystal clear, the shape and color was correct. Then when I was all done, it took 28 seconds to disconnect and pack away into a backpack. What I really like is how very well thought out this scanner is. They thought of everything. They even included the pop-up case that you put the scanner in so that the scan is in complete darkness. It makes a big difference indeed. I have scanned and printed several spare parts already. This has saved me so much time and money. Without this, I would have to design those parts that were given to me on the 3D modeler and it would have taken me days, instead of a few minutes. I highly recommend this for anyone that needs to 3D scan small to medium sized objects. It is miles ahead of any 3D scanners I have tried that were less than $1500. An excellent deal.

To be honest I expected more from this… To be honest I expected more from this scanner. First the good, It can make nice detailed scans if the object is not symmetrical and within the size specs, non reflective, not black, etc. and now comes the big IF I think the scanner is very capable on the hardware side, but the Software in my opinion is terrible. There is no way to help the software aligning the single scans. The first run of an object looks mostly amazing but after the second the alignment is off pretty much every time and the object looks out of shape. If you run like 3 scans it could work fine and then the fourth something is off and the software cannot merge with the fourth scan and there is no chance to restart that one scan again, you have to start from the beginning ( or use the misshaped outcome) and as scanning is not very fast, I killed several weekends trying to scan a single object. I got a super expensive scan spray, added clay on symmetrical objects but to no avail. I bought the scanner used so either maybe it is damaged and someone scammed me or this scanner is a Monday device :( I really wish the software would be a bit more advanced with more options, also the Software wasnt updated since 2021 if the Name of the install file corresponds to the last date the Software was updated.

Excellent product for an excellent… Excellent product for an excellent price! do 3 or more scans to get better results.

Scan is very slow even for small… Scan is very slow even for small objects. Software is plain and lacks automatic update feature.
