Shining 3D OptimScan Q12 High-Precision 3D Inspection Scanner

Redefining Industrial 3D Scanning Accuracy and Speed

The Shining 3D OptimScan Q12 stands as a new benchmark in high-precision 3D inspection solutions, purpose-built to meet the rigorous demands of industrial-quality assurance, reverse engineering, and automated measurement systems. This next-generation scanner combines cutting-edge optical hardware, intelligent scanning algorithms, and versatile deployment options—delivering unmatched accuracy, speed, and adaptability in diverse scanning scenarios.

Whether for aerospace, automotive, heavy machinery, or electronics manufacturing, the OptimScan Q12 is engineered to empower professionals with ultra-detailed 3D scanning and highly repeatable results.

Ultra-High Resolution with 4×12.3MP Cameras

At the heart of the OptimScan Q12 is a powerful quad-camera setup, featuring 4 × 12.3 megapixel high-resolution sensors. This multi-camera configuration ensures unparalleled accuracy in capturing even the finest surface details, edge definitions, and micro-geometric features of complex components. With this advanced imaging system, the scanner achieves an industry-leading accuracy of up to 0.005 mm, enabling it to reliably measure tight-tolerance parts where every micron counts.

By leveraging Shining 3D's refined 3D reconstruction algorithms and precision-calibrated hardware, the Q12 ensures stable repeatability, making it ideal for professional inspection and metrology applications.

Dual Scan Range: Seamless Versatility in a Click

One of the standout features of the OptimScan Q12 is its dual scan range, offering two switchable field-of-view configurations with a single click—no need to manually adjust the aperture or recalibrate the lens system:

• Large Range: 430 × 300 mm
• Small Range: 160 × 110 mm

This dual-scope functionality empowers users to scan both small intricate parts and large industrial components without changing equipment or setup. Scanned data from both ranges can be fused seamlessly within the software, allowing for maximum efficiency and accuracy across multi-scale objects.

Monocular-Stereo Fusion (MSF) for Enhanced Coverage

The Monocular-Stereo Fusion (MSF) capability further extends the data capture coverage by intelligently integrating stereo and monocular imaging. This innovative function improves data integrity and minimizes blind spots—especially useful for scanning objects with turning corners, grooves, and tight joints often found in mechanical assemblies and machined parts.

With MSF activated, users benefit from more complete and comprehensive datasets, reducing the need for re-scans or manual stitching.

High-Speed Data Capture with Multiple Exposure Modes

The OptimScan Q12 is powered by a dual-chip embedded computing module that drastically accelerates image acquisition and processing. Each scan takes less than one second per shot, capturing over 12 million data points in exceptional detail.

To streamline scanning across a wide variety of materials and surfaces—whether reflective, matte, or semi-transparent—the Q12 supports multiple exposure modes, including:

• Manual exposure for controlled lighting conditions
• Intelligent automatic exposure for optimal contrast on variable surface finishes
• Multi-frame HDR acquisition for complex geometries

This smart exposure system not only ensures better adaptability but also reduces scanning time, improving throughput in fast-paced industrial environments.

Compact, Portable, and Adaptable for Every Workflow

Despite its high-end performance, the OptimScan Q12 maintains a lightweight and compact design, weighing just 3.5 kg with overall dimensions of 366 × 162 × 132 mm. This makes it easily portable for on-site inspections, lab testing, or multi-location deployments.

It supports three levels of operational modes:

1. Manual Mode

Ideal for engineers or quality control specialists needing maximum flexibility. The handheld configuration allows for scanning objects in varied orientations.

2. Semi-Automated Mode

Pair it with a fixed tripod and a motorized turntable (up to 20 kg load capacity) for hands-free scanning with higher repeatability and efficiency—great for inspection of small-to-medium-sized parts in batches.

3. Fully Automated Mode

For high-throughput operations, the Q12 integrates seamlessly with robotic arms, enabling fully automated, repeatable 3D inspections in production lines.

End-to-End Automated Inspection System

OptimScan Q12 is more than just a scanner—it's a gateway to fully automated 3D inspection workflows. When integrated with SHINING 3D’s intelligent inspection ecosystem, users can perform:

1. Robot Path Setup – Pre-programmed robotic motion for consistent coverage
2. Automated 3D Scanning – Continuous scanning with real-time monitoring
3. Automated Data Analysis – Instant comparison with CAD or golden sample
4. Automated Report Generation – Intuitive reporting with deviation highlights

This automation saves hours of manual work, enhances repeatability, and significantly reduces inspection bottlenecks in manufacturing workflows.

Unmatched Technical Specifications
