Creaform Go!SCAN SPARK 3D Scanner (New) - Sale!

The Creaform SPARK 3D scanner is the current evolution of the Go!SCAN 20 and Go!SCAN 50. It is interesting to note that the Go!SCAN 20 was designed for small parts with intricate details, (143 x 108 mm scan area and 0.100 mm resolution), while the Go!SCAN 50 was a good match for 3D scanning medium to large-sized objects (recommended part size range of 0.3 – 3.0 m).

With the Go!SCAN SPARK, Creaform managed to significantly improve the Go!SCAN series’ performance and broaden its field of view. The SPARK is recommended for 3D scanning parts ranging from 0.1 m to 4 m, encompassing both of the previous Go!SCAN 20 and 50 versions.

The Go!SCAN SPARK mainly uses white structured light technology to acquire geometries, with the projection of 99 stripes. Its appearance reveals how it operates; out of the five circular elements stacked on its front, one is the light projector, one is the color camera (up to 200 DPI), and the remaining three are light cameras.

Like all structured light 3D scanners, the Go!SCAN SPARK does not operate under direct sunlight and works best indoors. Aside from these recommendations, no special lighting conditions are required, and once the 3D scanner is connected and powered up with the software running, it is possible to start 3D scanning right away.

The SPARK relies on a hybrid positioning technology that combines three 3D scanning methods: based on texture, based on geometry, and/or with markers/targets. The targets are small black and white stickers which help the scanner identify the underlying surfaces below them. This mode offers the ability to 3D scan even in very difficult conditions (lightning, color of objects, transparency) but at the cost of a longer setup process.

By default, targets and geometry are used. It is possible to configure different combinations and to acquire the object’s texture (colors).

The Go!SCAN SPARK is an excellent 3D scanner. Creaform managed to deliver a structured light 3D scanner that reaches almost the same performance as their previous best-in-class laser scanner, the HandySCAN 700, while offering color acquisition capabilities and a scanning speed of 1,500,000 measurements/second.

On paper, the Go!SCAN SPARK has almost no competitors. An even better performance would imply a heftier price tag, and going for a cheaper alternative implies a significant drop in terms of performance and power.

Its comprehensive and modular software suite makes it the best choice if you are not limited by budget. To our best knowledge, similar high-performance, handheld structured light 3D scanners do not exist.

The Go!SCAN SPARK comes with everything needed to use it, including:

• A cable with two connectors: one for the USB 3.0 connection to the computer, the other for power
• One power cable along with its AC/DC converter
• A calibration plate
• Two sets of targets
• One USB key with a VXElements software suite licence key
