TAKING YOUR FIRST 3D SCAN 

Determine the clearance distance between your scanner and your target 
object using the table below. 
Place the object to be scanned at approximately the same clearance distance 
away from the 3D scanner. This ensures that the cameras will be focused to 
get the most amount of data out of a scan.

Navigate to the  

Project

 tab in FlexScan3D and you should be able to see the 

object in the live feed of the camera window on the bottom right of the screen.

angle looking down on the object.
