Desktop 3D Scanner

 
 
 
 
 

  Optimized for 3D Printing
With just two clicks, the MakerBot Digitizer Desktop 3D Scanner’s easy to use, yet sophisticated software creates clean, watertight 3D models that are ready to 3D print. We’ve optimized the whole process to work seamlessly with MakerBot Replicator Desktop 3D Printers, but you get standard design files to use on the 3D printer of your choice. You don’t need any design or 3D modeling skills to get started, and it all happens in just minutes.

The New Standard in Desktop 3D Printing

A FAST AND EASY WAY TO CREATE 3D MODELS

   REMAKE YOUR WORLD
     
Quickly turn the things in your world into 3D models that you can modify, improve,
share, and 3D print.
   When you scan an object, you give it a brand new life in the digital world. The
MakerBot Digitizer Desktop 3D Scanner outputs standard 3D file formats so that you
can improve, shape, mold, twist, animate, and transform objects in a third-party 3D
modeling program.
     
OPTIMIZED FOR 3D PRINTING
  

SHARE IT
     
With just two clicks, the MakerBot® Digitizer™ Desktop 3D Scanner's easy to use, yet
sophisticated software creates clean, watertight 3D models that are ready to 3D
print. We've optimized the whole process to work seamlessly with MakerBot®
Replicator® Desktop 3D Printers, but you get standard design files to use on the 3D
printer of your choice. You don't need any design or 3D modeling skills to get
started, and it all happens in just minutes..
   Sharing is central to the Next Industrial Revolution, so we built it directly into the
MakerBot Digitizer experience. Send your 3D design files to friends, family, and
colleagues, or easily upload them to Thingiverse.com, the largest community for
sharing 3D designs.
     
    CREATE BETTER 3D MODELS
     
    Behind the two-click simplicity is a powerful and complex reconstruction
process. MakerWare™ for Digitizer contains an algorithm that connects hundreds of thousands of points into a seamless digital mesh in just seconds. There’s no
patching, stitching, or repairing required, so you can skip straight to your creative
process. We’ve worked hard to create software that saves you time.
MakerBot® MultiScan™ Technology allows you to scan objects from multiple angles
to capture the top, bottom, and hidden parts of your object. You can then “merge”
them together to create the best possible 3D model.
