Adopting new manufacturing technology often sparks the same questions: How long will this take to learn? What if we get it wrong? Will our team actually use it? At Mark3D, we've heard these concerns from engineering teams across aerospace, automotive, and industrial sectors. And with the explosion of digital workflow - industrial 3D printing, AI-assisted [...]
The automotive industry is evolving faster than ever. Whether improving product performance, reducing lead times, solving supply-chain challenges, or acceleating R&D, digital workflows are now central to staying competitive. At the heart of this shift are two enabling technologies: high-resolution 3D scanning and industrial additive manfuacturing. Together they close the loop between physical and digital, [...]
Broaden Scanner Applications Beyond Just Printing When most people think about 3D scanners, they imagine capturing an object to 3D print a replica. While that's certainly one application, it barely scratches the surface of what industrial-grade scanning can do. In reality, high-precision 3D scanning has become a critical tool in modern manufacturing, especially in reverse [...]
How Scanning + Printing Completes the Loop In modern manufacturing, speed, accuracy, and adaptability are everything. The ability to move seamlessly between the physical and digital worlds has become a competitive advantage. Enter the scan-modify-print workflow. A complete digital manufacturing loop that enables engineers, designers, and technicians to reverse-engineer, improve, and reproduce parts faster than [...]
At Mark3D UK, we're committed to helping manufacturers build stronger, smarter digital workflows. Alongside our range of Markforged composite and metal 3D printers, we're pleased to announce that we are now an official distributor of the Artec range of professional 3D scanners. This addition allows us to offer customers a more complete digital manufacturing workflow [...]
The 3D scanning world just got a major upgrade. Artec 3D has launched Artec Studio 20 (AS20) - the latest version of its powerful 3D data capture and processing software, and it’s packed with new features designed to save time, boost accuracy, and unlock more creative possibilities for engineers, designers, and manufacturers. Already known as [...]
Additive manufacturing (AM) is reshaping how we design, prototype, and produce parts with unparalleled precision and flexibility. But even the most advanced 3D printing workflows can stumble when digital and physical worlds don’t align with millimetre-level accuracy. That’s where high-precision 3D scanning becomes the essential missing link, providing reliable, actionable data to hone every step [...]
