Macro Scanning in Modified FlexScan3D

[greenskynet]

in this topic I share some of my macro scans, which I do with my DIY scanner, using Modified version of FlexScan3D.
Macro Scanning is a particular field in 3D scanning that need more special considerations.
The Modified version of FlexScan3D overcomes super macro scans even with conventional equipment.

next Macro scan: Acacia fruit
it is like a leaf, but actually it is a fruit, containing several seeds in the pod.

Besides small details, this item was challenging to 3D scan due to its low thickness. its total thickness was less than 1mm (about 0.5mm).
it was scanned using my DIY 3D Scanner, in "Modified Version of FlexScan3D", using 6.3MP cameras.
For this scan I used my DIY 2-axis turntable, for automatic calibration and scanning process.

Macro scan: Pine Fruit .

it is less than a finger, and it has many deep features that make it a little challenging to 3D Scan, but my DIY scanner overcame this scan very well as always

The detail is excellent. Was this done with a modified pf60 projector? How do did you get the projection small enough and the cameras close enough to scan this small?
I haven't done macro scanning yet but am very curious.

The projector is my Casio projector with my modifications. I did huge modifications on it to solve many problems, like heatsinck and focus and ...

Ailanthus (Tree Of Heaven) Seed .

This seed is very thin and light weight, it flies with every little wind.

look at the fine details on the scan!

It was very delicate. The thickness may be less than 0.1mm.

I scanned it completely in both side. it is very challenging for such this thin small items!

Impressive!

That is a level if detail that most high end scanners would have difficulty reproducing.

New scan for reverse engineering

it is a small gear for a rare machine. My client asked me to make a clone of it.
scanned in modified version of FlexScan3D, using 6.3MP cameras.

I scanned it and after reverse engineering I must decide for the manufacturing method.
I think it is made by Die-Cast, but I may change the production method to Wire-Cut EDM
