EinScan Libre is fully wireless

Jan. 13, 2025
The scanner from Shining 3D has a built-in screen and on-board processor.

EinScan Libre Shining 3D’s new fully wireless, stand-alone 3D scanner can measure molded parts made of a variety of materials and textures, with sizes ranging from about 4 inches to almost 33 feet. It features a 48-megapixel camera and flexible operating modes with laser and infrared light sources, and works at distances of up to about 5 feet. 

What’s new? The scanner, which came out in the fall.  

Benefits Convenient, high-speed scanning. The EinScan Libre has its own charging dock, a built-in 5.5-inch screen and on-board processor, so users don’t need cables or a laptop to use it, though the scanner can be paired with a laptop for post-processing.
