3D digitisation is intended for data representation of physical models in virtual space.

The selection of the digitisation procedure is primarily oriented toward the object’s characteristics and the desired data quality. A surface scanner is appropriate for external geometries, whereas CT or micro CT is suitable for internal structures.

The following applications are possible as a result of the use of 3D digitisation:

• Quality assurance: comparison of finished objects with CAD target data.
• Reverse engineering: preparation of the basic data set of an object for further processing in CAx systems.
• Epitheses: with 3D surface scanners, faces and castings of missing parts are digitised in order to be able to preform further planning steps with this data basis.
