The collaboration expands market access and offers accurate, user-friendly design tools for professionals and small businesses.
Creaform, a business of AMETEK, Inc. and provider of automated and portable 3D measurement solutions, has entered into a strategic licensing agreement with HP to launch the new HP DesignScan—a professional-grade 3D scanning solution. This collaboration brings together HP’s experience in 3D printing and Creaform’s capabilities in 3D scanning to support industrial product development and additive manufacturing applications.

The collaboration is intended to support designers and 3D printing users by integrating 3D scanning with 3D printing workflows for efficient and accurate results.
The HP DesignScan is offered in two configurations to meet a range of needs: one includes the HP DesignScan 3D scanner for creating 3D digital representations of any objects, while the other is tailored for reverse engineering workflow, combining the HP DesignScan 3D scanner with HP Scan-to-CAD software. Specifically designed for professionals and skilled small business owners, the HP DesignScan offers unparalleled benefits such as the simplest and most intuitive 3D scanning experience, rapid path to CAD, and reliable accuracy.
Targeted towards small to mid-sized companies, product development teams, and reverse engineering departments, the HP DesignScan is ideal for applications involving industrial design and 3D printing. Featuring specifications such as accuracy up to 0.050 mm, mesh resolution of 0.250 mm, and a measurement rate of 1,250,000 measurements per second, this scanner is engineered to meet high standards while remaining accessible to a wide range of users. The device is equipped with color camera and a multi-function, intuitive touchscreen interface, ensuring seamless operation and enhanced usability.
