6. 3D Scanning and printing

6.a. 3D Scanning

For 3D Scanning we use SENSE 3D Scanner to scan offset pipe reducer

Opening Scanning software and choosing Small Object to start scanning object

The scanner is verifying the part and we try to focus the part within the green rectangle

Scanning the part by rotating the part during the scanning process to cover all part sides

Scanner setup using tri pod and rotating stool to maintain constant distance between scanner and part and eliminate any variances in distance or angle

6.b. 3D Printing:
