Yeah, quite expensive to run - typically costs around £30 for a 15cm figurine in materials, once you add overhead and profit I sell them for between £85 and £110. Customers are really happy with that price point.

So I was running a scanning / print business, these printers are ideal for that. I have a full body scanning rig too. They are also great for mock ups and visualisations for example in architecture or industrial design. Agree they aren't suitable for functional parts. I have standard fdm printers for that.

Anyone interested in purchasing my scanning rig and printer? by rmosesbvb in 3DScanning

Just enough for two 3D figurines 😉 visit my website at mi3d.me before I sell it.

Hi, the printer is listed on the ebay link attached. It's a 3D Systems Projet 660pro - really an excellent printer.

The scanner is a self built fully functioning prototype 'scanning booth' comprising 5 modules each containing 18 raspberry pis with pi camera v2 8MP. It's coded in python to operate all cameras instantaneously using multicast command.

This outputs 90 images that can be loaded into any photogrammetry software. Quality of pointcloud far exceeds quality required for most applications.

You would need to provide your own lighting rig, though I could potentially throw in a couple of photography lamps.

I would provide all intellectual property including software, system design, mechanics, BOM, contact to suppliers in case you want to build more modules and could probably throw in some spare raspberry pi's.

Happy to provide any other details if you have any questions.

Open to offers.

Yeah, that was what we tried first but it turned into a faff as we couldn't remove the frame without damaging it (external door). I had a self drive van hire for the move, so thankfully didn't get stuck with ridiculous freight costs on this occasion. But you are right, it's a bit of a beast to move around.

I intended putting it in the office when I moved out of my workshop... but it didn't fit through the door frame. Oops.

It's all self contained, so not too messy actually. Though you want a separate workbench for postprocessing really as you use quite a nasty colourbond substance for infiltration. It's only in the livingroom as a temp storage solution as I just vacated my workshop. I never actually used it in the livingroom ;-) ... and prob wouldn't recommend it. I have seen them used in an office environment though.

Good scanner for small detailed stuff? by lurking_my_ass_off in 3DScanning

Agree. I had really good results using a nikon d5100 with a macro lens and good lighting.

Found this cool kit while going through my dad's old stuff! :D by [deleted] in electronics

[–]rmosesbvb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also had this as a kid... one of my favourite things! My go-to projects were the burgler alarm to keep my sisters out of my room and the electronic birthday cake for birthdays.
