New to scanning, on a budget, or need portable color capture?
Honest, model-by-model picks — bring us your part and we’ll scan it on the exact Einstar that fits how you work and what you can spend.
Start on the most affordable, easy-to-use handheld in the line. The EINSTAR 2 makes full-color capture approachable from day one — no fixed rig to build, no steep learning curve — and we’ll walk your team through the software so you’re productive right away. Bring us a part and we’ll scan it so you can see the mesh before you buy.
See the scannerYou don’t need a five-figure system to get real 3D scans. The Einstar delivers portable, full-color handheld capture at an entry-level price that fits makerspaces, classrooms, and small shops — the accessible way into professional-grade quality. We’ll demo it on your use case and give you a straight recommendation.
See the scannerWhen the part won’t sit on a turntable and appearance matters, the lightweight Vega comes to the part — capturing geometry plus full-color texture you can take straight into your workflow. Fully portable, easy to learn, and priced for entry-level teams. Bring us the part and we’ll scan it free.
See the scannerSend us a part — we scan it free.
A real scan of your own part, on the Einstar you’re considering — before you spend a dollar. Bring it in or book a live demo; you get to see the mesh, the full-color capture, and a straight recommendation on which scanner fits — even if it’s the most affordable model in the line.
Sample scans are per part, by appointment, so we can dedicate the right scanner and show off what it captures. One representative part per qualified business; larger programs we scope case-by-case.
Every Einstar scanner we sell & support
From an $874 best-value handheld to the detailed Rockit flagship — all portable, all handheld, all capturing full color and running one easy Einstar software workflow, all supported from Michigan.
Affordable, portable, and full-color — the easy way in
The Einstar line is defined by accessibility — entry-level pricing, lightweight handheld portability, and full-color capture with easy software — then backed locally by Rev1.
The Einstar line brings professional-grade 3D scanning within reach — an affordable entry point for makers, educators, hobbyists, and small design shops who don’t need a five-figure system to get real, usable scans.
Every Einstar is a portable, handheld scanner you move around the part by hand — so you can take the scanner to large, fixed, or hard-to-reach subjects instead of bringing the part to a rig.
Across the range, Einstar scanners capture full-color texture along with geometry, driven by an approachable software workflow that’s easy to learn — so first-time users are productive quickly.

Frequently asked questions
Which Einstar fits me?
Taking your first step into 3D scanning or working on a tight budget: the EINSTAR 2 ($874) or Einstar ($959) make affordable, full-color handheld capture easy to learn. Want more capability while staying portable: the EINSTAR Vega ($1,599). Need the most detailed capture in the line: the flagship EINSTAR Rockit ($1,899). Every Einstar is handheld, captures full color, and runs the same easy workflow. Not sure? Bring us a part — we’ll scan it free and tell you which scanner to buy.
Einstar or EinScan — what’s the difference?
Einstar is the accessible, entry-level line: affordable, portable, easy-to-use handheld scanners with full-color capture, built for makers, educators, entry-level professionals, and small shops stepping into 3D scanning. The higher-end EinScan line adds more capability and a broader range — handheld, desktop, and wireless — for demanding reverse engineering, inspection, and healthcare work. Many customers start on Einstar and step up to EinScan later; we sell and support both, and a demo is the fastest way to tell which fits your parts and budget.
What does a free sample scan and demo include?
Bring us a representative part and we’ll scan it on the Einstar you’re considering — you get to see the mesh, the full-color capture, and the finished result before you spend a dollar. We also run a live demo of the scanner and the easy software workflow so you can judge the fit, and we give you a straight recommendation — even if it’s a lower-priced model. Sample scans are per part, by appointment.
How easy is the software to use?
Einstar scanners are built to be approachable. The software workflow takes you from live capture through alignment to a clean, watertight mesh, with an easy learning curve that suits first-time users — makers, students, and small teams alike. It’s the same friendly toolchain across the Einstar line, so what you learn on one scanner carries over to the next, and we cover it in training so your team is productive from day one.
What US support and financing come with it?
Business financing is available on approved credit across the Einstar line. Rev1 Technologies is your authorized US dealer and support: phone and video support, application help, training, and same-day quotes, all from Auburn Hills, Michigan — not an overseas ticket queue. SHINING 3D builds Einstar; Rev1 is your US dealer and service partner.
