D3D-s: 3D Jewelry Scanner

Super Retina Resolution

Our scanners have the industry's best resolution of 0.029 mm/pix and an accuracy of 0.010 mm, which makes the scanned object look exactly like the original. We call this Super Retina resolution because the scan result reveals details that are invisible to the naked eye. Our jewelry scanner is the best solution for scanning jewelry, shadow bands, and gemstones. Compare the 3D model scanned by our scanner and a more expensive SLS model.

Retina resolution

To demonstrate the difference in resolution, we printed a test model using a Phrozen Sonic XL 4K printer. We then scanned the model using a Medit T710 dental scanner, which has a proven accuracy of one micron at twice the price of our scanner. The printer's pixel size of 50 microns produces layers that can be seen when enlarged. Our jewelry scanner's high resolution makes these layers visible on the scanned model. Despite the high accuracy, the medical scanner generates a model with rounded corners that does not look like the original.

Scanning process

To scan a model, you need to mount it securely to avoid any movement during scanning.

Models also need to be coated with a special spray that makes them white. Two types of spray are available at present. The first is chalk-based and coats models in small particles of chalk. More modern sprays are specially formulated to dissolve in air over time.

Gemstone covered by spray

Our engineers designed this scanner specifically for small stones, so unlike other SLS scanners, its camera is oriented horizontally.

Conventional diamond scanners can only scan convex objects. The D3D-s captures every dimple and defect.

The D3D-s includes special stands for scanning gemstones simultaneously from two sides. The scanner tilts the table first to one side and then to the other.

The scanning process yields a 3D model that you can use to create jewelry in a CAD program. You can also showcase your models on your website.

The images above are of a 17-mm gemstone. Can the D3D-s handle very small items? Sure. Take a look at this scan of an M4 set screw.

3D-scanning miniatures

The D3D-s jewelry 3D scanner is also suitable for scanning miniatures. In fact, it is the best tool for copying a miniature. Only our scanner can provide a faithful reproduction that includes even the smallest details. Other scanners are simply unable to do this or cost ten times more. Look at the scan below. You can see all the defects and even marks from the mold.

High-Quality Equipment

We employ industrial-grade cameras and high-quality lenses, enabling us to deliver superior results. Combined with cutting-edge software based on unique algorithms, you'll receive quality that exceeds the cost of our 3D scanner, the D3D-s. This device is specifically designed to scan objects with retinal resolution, ensuring the finest detail is captured with precision.

Comparison with Competitors

We are not afraid of competition, so we have combined the features of jewelry scanners currently on the market into a comparative table for your convenience.

Comparison of D3D-s models

All mentioned trademarks belong to their respective owners.
1. The formula used for calculation was - Working area width (mm) / Camera resolution (pix).
2. The price is obtained from open sources and may differ from the current one, please clarify with the seller.
3. Actually, it's a toy scanner that advertises itself as professional, but you can see its actual performance in the comparison of the D3D-s and Revopoint Mini review.
4. This scanner has a high resolution only in a small area of approximately 40 mm; beyond this zone, the resolution significantly decreases.

Unique LED Line Technology

For this scanner, we developed unique scanning technology similar to that used for quality control in industrial production. Competitor scanners use SLS technology, which requires a digital projector and expensive cameras. The problem with a digital projector is that its price grows exponentially as its resolution increases. For example, you can find an SLS scanner that advertises its powerful 8MP cameras but actually has a very weak projector with a resolution of 0.8 MP. Real SLS scanners that really deliver quality results cost tens of thousands of dollars. Our scanner uses an analog LED line projector that has no resolution limitations and is much less expensive. The only drawback of our technology is the scanning speed. For example, it takes 10 minutes to scan a ring with our scanner. This means that our scanner is best suited for small studios where you only need to scan a few rings a day. The low price lets you quickly recoup your investment.

Minimum System Requirements

  • 64-bit Windows 8/10/11
  • 8 GB RAM
  • OpenGL 3.2 compatible graphics card with 2 GB RAM
  • Fast SSD (recommended)
  • 4GB of HDD free space
  • USB 3.x

Software

We developed software specifically for the D3D-s with lots of unique features. The software is currently available for Windows 8/10/11. Once the scanning is done, you'll get an STL file that you can open in any program that supports STL files, such as ZBRUSH, RhinoGold, MatrixGold, Jewelery cad dream and more.

Unlimited support

For your convenience, we have introduced unlimited online support. Ask us as many questions as necessary until you learn how to use the scanner confidently. We provide online training and quick support via WhatsApp. You will be assisted by one of the engineers who designed the scanner, so the information you get will be highly reliable. One hour is usually enough for us to explain how the scanner works. We are always happy to help you and admire your great results.
