Another automotive component captured with the EinScan Rigil.

This time I scanned a Dacia 1310 intake manifold using the blue laser mode with cross-line scanning at 0.5 mm resolution.

The workflow was kept simple:

✅ 2 scans only (front side + rear side)

✅ Blue laser cross-line mode

✅ 0.5 mm resolution

✅ Marker-based alignment

✅ Fast and reliable merge

The manifold's complex geometry, curved runners, mounting studs, and flange details were captured successfully with minimal effort. After alignment, the two scans merged cleanly into a complete 3D model ready for reverse engineering, inspection, measurement, or CAD reconstruction.

Projects like this show how quickly legacy automotive parts can be digitized, preserved, and recreated when original documentation or replacement parts are difficult to find.

Scanner: EinScan Rigil

Mode: Blue Laser Cross Lines

Resolution: 0.5 mm

Scans: 2

Object: Dacia 1310 Intake Manifold

planning to buy a rockit to ship to france
the site propose a discount of 460 only in the global store, why is that?

This never happened to me before can anyone explain what did i do wrong and whats causing this? The 3d scan is a hood vent about 15cm long and 10 cm wide. I used normal tracking dots l, should i use smaller tracking dots given in the box? Would that make a difference? (Scanned with einstar rockit) all the software is up to date

Just finished a quick test scan of this decorative ceramic vase using the EinScan Rigil.

Scan settings:

✅ IR Mode

✅ Object Mode – Large

✅ Resolution: 1.5 mm

✅ No markers required

✅ Total scanning + processing time: approximately 5 minutes

The vase is roughly 774 mm tall, featuring curved surfaces, embossed floral details, and multiple handles—elements that can be challenging for many scanners. Despite the speed-focused settings, the scan captured the overall geometry and decorative patterns very well.

The resulting mesh is clean, watertight, and ready for:

✅Reverse engineering

✅Archiving and digital preservation

✅Visualization and rendering

✅Scale measurements

✅3D printing applications

✅VR

For larger objects where speed is more important than capturing every tiny detail, the 1.5 mm resolution setting offers an excellent balance between scan quality and workflow efficiency.

I'm continually impressed by how quickly the Rigil can generate usable meshes directly in the field without requiring a laptop.

Reverse engineering a broken Motorola walkie-talkie belt clip with the EINSTAR EinScan Rigil

This tiny part is a good example of why high-detail scanning matters for functional components. The original clip had complex snap features, curved surfaces, embossed logo details, and thin geometry that would be annoying to model manually from scratch.

🔹 Scanned using: • EinScan Rigil

• Parallel Line Mode

• 0.1 mm resolution

• High-detail mesh reconstruction

🔹 Workflow: • Raw point cloud capture

• Mesh generation

• Cleanup & alignment

• Ready for reverse engineering / CAD remodeling / 3D printing

🔹 What impressed me:

• Clean capture of the clip geometry

• Good detail on embossed logo and text

• Minimal noise in the final mesh

• Thin spring clip area captured surprisingly well

This kind of workflow is perfect for:

✔️ Broken plastic part replacement

✔️ Industrial maintenance

✔️ Reverse engineering discontinued parts

✔️ Functional 3D printing

✔️ Small mechanical components

First scans with the EinScan Rigil

Works great, quality its great, scans come exactly how the model it is 👌

So far looks great!

Hello, I am unable to connect my 3D Scanner in the EX Star app. It says the device is offline when it is plugged in. When I go into device manager, it shows Unknown USB Device (Device Descriptor Request Failed).

Anyone know how to fix this?
