As manufacturing becomes more data-driven, the ability to quickly capture accurate 3D data from real-world objects is becoming increasingly important. At MACH 2026, we'll be demonstrating how advanced 3D scanning from Artec 3D is helping engineers accelerate workflows across reverse engineering, inspection, and product development. With Artec specialists joining us on the stand, visitors will [...]
The Hidden Cost of Missing CAD Data In-house 3D scanning is becoming a critical capability for manufacturers looking to reduce downtime and regain control of legacy parts. When a component fails and no CAD file exists, production slows, engineers react, and outsourcing delays begin to stack up. In many manufacturing businesses, the biggest bottleneck isn’t [...]
In-house 3D scanning is becoming a core capability for manufacturers looking to reduce downtime, accelerate reverse engineering, and regain control of legacy parts. But beyond the concept, what does in-house 3D scanning actually look like inside a real engineering environment? Modern manufacturing runs on digital data. Yet in many facilities, critical parts still exist only [...]
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 [...]
