With a new line of bicycle hubs and wheels on the market, Spark Wheel Works needed to get the most accurate measurements and models of their hubs for inspection and showcasing.
With their already sterling reputation for quality and passion for their craft, Spark Wheel Works offers truly customizable wheel sets for any condition on their website. Their commitment to design quality and precision caused them to try and come up with a more unique way to not only display their hub and wheel sets but for inspection purposes as well. The perfect solution? Arrival 3D’s 3D scanning services.
Arrival 3D Scanning Services: The Scanning Cycle
The scanning process began with our Faro Quantum articulated arm. The hubs themselves aren’t that large but contained a lot of precise detail. Orienting the hubs (front and back) on our mounting table in such a way where we were able to capture these minute details was essential. Firmly fastened to our scanning table, the hubs were scanned, leaving only a few areas around the end of the hub not captured. With a few passes of the arm at a point spacing of .01″, we were able to successfully capture the hub and model it to their specifications.
Now equipped with a 3D model of their hubs, Spark Wheel Works is now equipped to continue their pursuit of design perfection and have a truly unique e-commerce experience for its customers.
