Revolutionising Automotive Styling With 3D Scanning

The objective of introducing 3D scanning at TRC was to revolutionise its automotive styling process by enhancing productivity, efficiency, and precision.

Recognising the need for agility and efficiency in product development, TRC strategically decided to incorporate additive manufacturing into its workflow. By integrating a Creaform HandySCAN laser scanner and advanced CAD software alongside 3D printers, TRC has revolutionised its design process from scan to product. This transition has not only accelerated production timelines but has also enabled TRC to tackle complex surfaces with precision.

Products can be scanned in-house, allowing for seamless digitisation and refinement using CAD software. For instance, the design of the new wide arch kit for the Audi R8 exemplifies this streamlined approach, where precise scanning and CAD modelling result in a perfect fit and finish. Moreover, the HandySCAN’s versatility enables it to handle many materials encountered in automotive styling, ranging from painted car exteriors to textured interiors and ABS plastic panels.
