SHINING3D Inspect delivers a seamless non-contact measurement experience directly on the FreeScan Omni — the world’s first standalone inspection-ready metrology scanner. Load an inspection template, scan the part, and get a full color-mapped inspection result without ever leaving the scanner interface. No PC required at the point of measurement. Results are clear, visual, and instantly actionable on the floor.
Create an inspection template once from your nominal CAD model — define the features to check, set tolerances, configure the report layout. From that point on, any operator can run a fully compliant inspection of that part in minutes. The template handles alignment, feature extraction, measurement, and reporting automatically. Critical for production environments where inspection repeatability is a quality requirement, not a nice-to-have.
SHINING3D Inspect isn’t locked to SHINING 3D hardware. Import scan data from any metrology-grade scanner that outputs STL, OBJ, or PTX format — including CMM point clouds. Multiple alignment methods let you register the scan to nominal precisely: best-fit, RPS (Reference Point System), datum-based, and 3-2-1 alignment. The right alignment method for the right part, every time.
Full-field inspection overlays a color deviation map across the entire scanned surface against the nominal CAD model. Every point on the part is measured and colored — green for in-tolerance, red/orange for over, blue for under. Cross-section analysis cuts through the 3D model at any plane to reveal internal profile deviations. 2D comparison views pull dimensional callouts from section curves for drawing-style reporting.
Auto Inspect is SHINING3D Inspect’s integrated automation engine. Queue multiple scan files, assign a single inspection template, and the system processes every part sequentially — aligning, measuring, comparing to nominal, and generating individual inspection reports. The batch queue shows real-time status for every part: Inspecting, Completed, Succeeded, or flagged for review. Built for production environments where manual inspection throughput creates bottlenecks.
Auto Inspect scales to whatever volume your operation demands. First Article Inspection (FAI) on a single part, go/no-go screening on a batch of 50, or overnight processing of hundreds of parts from CNC or casting operations. Every run produces individual reports per part, a batch summary, and exportable CSV data for SPC (Statistical Process Control) integration. When a part fails, you know immediately — and you have the data to prove it.
