AESUB 3D Scanning Spray 

AESUB is a spray formulated specifically to aid in 3D scanning. The spray imparts an even, thin, matte white surface finish onto the part allowing white light 3D scanners to resolve even the most challenging surfaces. It makes previously impossible to scan materials like glass, metal and clear plastics and rubbers a breeze. As well as providing a consistent scan surface for increased scan accuracy and easier feature tracking.

AESUB ORANGE is a long-lasting sublimating (Vanishing) Spray. An alternative to Blue, Orange provides a longer scanning window with an average sublimation time of 24 hours

AESUB Orange Spray

• Produces a white matte finish ideal for scanning with white light scanners (such as the Shining3D EinScan family)
• This is a long-lasting sublimation spray that leaves no residue and is easy to handle
• Dissipates in approximately 24 hours

Even with state-of-the-art scanners, it is necessary to apply matting spray in several application cases:

• Transparent parts
  As we are dealing with optical technologies, light needs to be reflected off the surface back into the sensor of the scanner. In case of a transparent surface, however, the light will go through the surface instead of being reflected by the same. In consequence, the scanner is not able to capture the surface structure.
  
• Reflective parts
  In case of reflective parts, such as a mirror, the light beams will be reflected in a focused way instead of in a diffused way. This means that the chance of a beam hitting the reflector of the scanner is greatly reduced and the scanner will only capture a fraction of the reflected light beams.
  
• Deep Pocket
  When the object to be scanned has deep pockets, the scanner receives a reflection from the walls of the pocket onto the bottom. This causes disturbance in the pattern of the light manifesting in the scan as “artifacts” or bad data.
  
• High quality and accuracy
  When quality and accuracy are important, AESUB aides in scanning by controlling for as many visual quality differences as possible, such as colour, reflection, texture, etc. The use of spray creates a matte, white coat reducing reflection and other inhomogeneities and thus provides ideal scanning conditions.
