1. Is it the size and weight that can be fixed on the 2-axis arm?
- The object size exceeds 100mm or
- If the weight exceeds 3kg, scan with the other scanners is recommended

2. Judging whether spray is applied to the object surface
- Spray is recommended when the material is shiny, transparent or black
* It is less shiny, and in the case of black matte material, scanning may be possible.
We recommend that you do a 1-shot scan test without spray before spraying.
Spray application
** For darker materials, the brighter you set, the more data you may acquire.
