💡 Field Tips: Getting the Most Out of Your 3D Scans

When using 3D scanners on-site, proper setup and data management make all the difference in accuracy and efficiency.

Here are a few best practices from our field team:

✅ Plan Your Scan Path – Map out the site and define scanning positions to ensure full coverage and minimize shadows.
✅ PanoCam Calibration – If using a PanoCam for color, run a quick calibration to ensure proper color overlay.
✅ Overlap & Reference Points – Overlap scans by 30–40% and use natural or placed targets to ensure optimal and accurate registration.
✅ Manage Data– Label scans clearly and back up data to a secure drive daily to prevent loss and confusion in post-processing.

For projects generating large volumes of scan data, HTS Advanced Solutions can support your workflow with secure processing services. Simply return the scanner with the data or upload files through a secure transfer site. Our team can process, register, and deliver the required deliverables ( RCP, LProj, E57, or PTX), helping keep your project on schedule without compromising accuracy.

At HTS Advanced Solutions, we provide the latest 3D scanners from FARO, Leica, and Trimble with nationwide rentals, competitive shipping, and 24/7 support to keep your projects on track.

💸 CapEx vs.OpEx: Making Smarter Equipment Decisions

Capital investments can tie up budgets, slow flexibility, and require long-term depreciation. Operational expenses, on the other hand, allow teams to stay agile and scale resources based on project demand.

With HTS Advanced Solutions equipment rentals, you can:

✔️Avoid large upfront CapEx investments
✔️ Convert equipment costs into predictable OpEx
✔️ Eliminate maintenance, calibration, and storage costs
✔️ Access the latest 3D scanning, metrology, and NDT technology when you need it
✔️ Scale up or down based on project scope

Renting enables financial flexibility while maintaining performance across short-term projects and changing workload demands. Learn more about CapEx vs OpEx here 👉 https://hts-3d.com/rent-vs-buy-3d-scanners-metrology-equipment/
