About Holocreators
Holocreators offers 3D scanning of components using 3D computed tomography and other 3D metrology techniques. The company converts 3D scans (STL) into CAD formats (STEP) via reverse engineering – depending on requirements, through surface or parametric modeling. The methods include CT scanning in Standard and Ultra High Resolution, structured light scanning, laser scanning and photogrammetry. CT technology also enables the capture of complex internal geometries of X-ray-translucent metal components. Scans can be performed in-house or on-site at the customer's premises; results are delivered as STL, STEP, IGES or X_T. The service portfolio also includes consulting on the choice of the appropriate scanning technique. According to its own statements, Holocreators has almost a decade of experience in 3D scanning and offers its services via an online shop at fixed prices. Customer contact is available by phone and via a request form; the process ranges from data transfer through quotation, scanning and CAD preparation to the project report.
