Sculpteo Launches Professional 3D Scanning Service for Reverse Engineering

From Physical to Digital — and Back Again

Sculpteo, the Paris-based 3D printing service bureau, has launched a new professional 3D scanning service designed to help companies digitize complex objects with high-precision industrial-grade accuracy, speed, and flexibility.

The new service enables businesses to transform physical objects into high-resolution digital files, supporting applications such as prototyping, archiving, and on-demand manufacturing. Customers can send or drop off their objects to Sculpteo's factory near Paris, where they are scanned and converted into ready-to-use 3D mesh files.

Tailored to Every Part

Sculpteo's scanning process is tailored to the size and complexity of each part. Small components are captured using an automated scanning system with a rotating platform to ensure every angle is recorded. For larger or more complex shapes, a manual scanning approach guarantees precise detail capture.

All digital files are professionally edited and ready for use, with optional CAD-ready formats available for projects requiring editable geometry.

End-to-End Solution

Alexandre d'Orsetti, CEO of Sculpteo, said: "We are pleased to be able to expand our offering to create a complete end-to-end solution for clients. We can now offer a complete service from scanning objects right through to 3D printing them at scale."

The service is priced based on part size, complexity, and required resolution.
