We will introduce 3D printing using data scanned by an X-ray CT device.
We performed a CT scan of the target object (a plastic cup) using an X-ray CT device and attempted to output it with a 3D printer. By simply converting the CT scan data to STL, it is possible to easily perform reverse engineering of parts without drawings. <Process Steps> [Step 1] Scanning the sample with the X-ray CT device. [Step 2] Converting the scan data to STL using VG STUDIO MAX. [Step 3] Checking the state of the mesh and making corrections if there are any issues such as damage. [Step 4] 3D modeling using a resin 3D printer. The material used is ONYX (carbon fiber reinforced nylon).

basic information
This time, we scanned the shape of a cup using an X-ray CT scanner, but since there is no internal shape, a laser scanner can also perform a similar task. While the X-ray CT scanner excels at obtaining data on the internal shape of samples, the laser scanner is skilled at capturing data on the external shape. Therefore, by combining the two types of scanners, it becomes possible to accurately obtain data on both the external and internal shapes.

Company information
To support the digitalization of the development and manufacturing processes in manufacturing, we provide a one-stop service for a series of technical services from "reverse engineering" to "prototyping and processing" to "evaluation and experimentation." To implement new processing technologies and production techniques such as 3D scanning, reverse engineering, 3D printing, and resin molding in actual sites, extensive verification and evaluation are required. By outsourcing these processes to us, we believe it will lead to a more effective use of your management resources. Please take advantage of our technical support services for the development, design, prototyping, and evaluation processes in manufacturing, built on the expertise we have cultivated over 20 years of supporting manufacturing development and contract evaluation services.
