3D Scanners

The best scanner depends on part size, detail and surface, so there is no single answer. For engineering parts, handheld laser or structured light scanners such as Shining 3D FreeScan and EinScan models are common choices, while EinStar suits easier, portable scanning. Make3D, an official distributor of Shining 3D in Singapore, can match a model to your part. WhatsApp us for a recommendation.

Make3D carries Shining 3D (FreeScan, EinScan and EinStar ranges), 3DMakerPro and FJD Trion LiDAR scanners in Singapore, and acts as an official distributor. These cover industrial metrology, professional reverse engineering, entry-level scanning and large-area LiDAR surveying. Browse the brand pages or WhatsApp us to compare models and book a demo.

Structured light scanners project patterns to capture fine surface detail, laser scanners sweep laser lines across a part, and LiDAR measures distance with laser pulses to map large spaces and outdoor scenes. Make3D’s range includes all three, from Shining 3D FreeScan and EinScan to FJD Trion LiDAR. We can help you pick one for your use case.

Yes, you can arrange a demo with Make3D before buying. Tell us your application, such as reverse engineering, inspection or surveying, and our team will suggest suitable scanners and set up a demo at our Kallang office or on-site, which is the best way to see how a model handles your own parts. Contact us on WhatsApp to book.

Yes, Make3D sells an inspection solution that pairs Shining 3D FreeScan metrology scanners with SHINING3D Inspect software. Your QC team can check parts against CAD and generate colour deviation maps, GD&T checks and inspection reports in-house, for production, precision manufacturing, aviation MRO and automotive work. Speak to us on WhatsApp for a demo and free quotation.

3D scanner prices rise with accuracy and capability: entry-level structured-light scanners for 3D printing and hobby use, professional handheld laser scanners for reverse engineering, metrology-grade scanners for quality inspection, and LiDAR scanners for buildings and sites. Software, wireless operation and training also affect the price. We quote per application: tell us what you need to scan and how accurate it must be, and we will recommend up to three options. Read our guide: How to choose a 3D scanner in Singapore.

For engineering parts that you want to reprint or rebuild in CAD, the Shining 3D EinScan Rigil is our first recommendation: blue laser accuracy with fast handheld scanning. On a tighter budget the EinScan Rigil Lite or EinStar 2 covers smaller parts. For inspection-grade results, look at the FreeScan range. We can scan a sample of your part during a demo so you can compare.
