I just deleted a long confusing question and explanation. So here's a slightly simpler one. also I'm not to sure what section i should have posts this on. So moderator feel free to move to the appropriate spot.
Who here uses 3D scanning and probing equipment?
What hardware do you use for smaller things? eg. Ferro, Romer,Nikon... do you mix and match Romer arm Ferro head?
What software do you use? eg. Polyworks, Rapidform... I'm looking for a full parametric model when all is said and done.
what hard ware do u use for larger things. eg. Surphaser, a white light scanner...
And what software do you use for that? eg Geomagic...
I need to be able to reverse engineer smaller piece parts and assemblies from shoe box size to to larger, lets say 2'x2'x8'. with the arm
And also scan exteriors of vehicles with the Surphaser.
I know this is a huge question but i could use some advise as I'm putting together a proposal for a new Metrology department.
