Revopoint Auto Turntable for 3D Scanners Instruction Manual

1. Product Overview

The Revopoint Auto Turntable is an accessory designed to enhance the 3D scanning process for small to medium-sized objects. It provides a stable, rotating platform, allowing for comprehensive object capture without manual repositioning of the scanner.

• Easier Scans: Facilitates quick and easy 3D scanning of small to medium-sized objects by rotating the object, eliminating the need to move the scanner.
• Lightweight and Portable: Weighs approximately 315 g with a diameter of 125 mm, making it easy to transport. It supports a maximum load of 2.5 kg.
• Turntable Topper: Includes a topper with pre-placed marker points, which are crucial for scanning featureless objects by providing reference points for the 3D scanner.
• Compatibility: Designed to work seamlessly with all Revopoint 3D scanners for small and medium objects.

3. Setup Instructions

1. Unpack Components: Carefully remove the turntable base, turntable topper, and USB cable from the packaging.
2. Assemble Turntable Topper: Place the turntable topper onto the turntable base. Ensure it is seated correctly and securely. The topper is designed to fit precisely.
3. Position the Turntable: Place the assembled turntable on a stable, flat surface suitable for 3D scanning.
4. Connect Power: Connect the provided USB cable to the turntable's power input port. Connect the other end of the USB cable to a suitable USB power source (e.g., computer USB port, USB wall adapter).
5. Place Object: Position the object to be scanned centrally on the turntable topper. For featureless objects, the pre-marked points on the topper will assist the scanner in tracking.
6. Position 3D Scanner: Place your Revopoint 3D scanner on a stable tripod or stand next to the turntable, ensuring it has a clear view of the object and the turntable.

4. Operating Instructions

1. Power On: Once connected to power, the turntable should be ready for operation. Some models may have a power button or indicator light.
2. Initiate Scan: Launch your Revopoint 3D scanning software on your computer or mobile device.
3. Select Turntable Mode: Within the scanning software, select the appropriate scanning mode that utilizes a turntable. This mode often optimizes the scanning process for rotating objects.
4. Adjust Settings: Configure scanner settings such as exposure, resolution, and scanning speed as recommended by your scanner's manual or the software interface.
5. Start Scanning: Begin the scanning process through the software. The turntable will automatically rotate the object, allowing the scanner to capture data from all angles.
6. Monitor Progress: Observe the scanning progress in the software. Ensure the scanner maintains tracking of the object and the turntable's marker points (if applicable).
7. Complete Scan: Once the scan is complete, the turntable will stop rotating. You can then process the captured 3D data in your software.

5. Maintenance

• Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the turntable surface. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents that could damage the finish or marker points.
• Storage: Store the turntable in a dry, dust-free environment when not in use.
• Cable Care: Ensure the USB cable is not bent sharply or subjected to excessive strain to prevent damage.
• Marker Points: Keep the marker points on the turntable topper clean and free from obstruction to ensure optimal tracking by the 3D scanner.

6. Troubleshooting

• Turntable Not Rotating:
  • Check if the USB cable is securely connected to both the turntable and the power source.
  • Ensure the power source is active and providing sufficient power.
  • Verify that the scanning software has initiated the turntable rotation.
• Scanning Tracking Issues:
  • Ensure the object is placed centrally on the turntable.
  • Clean the marker points on the turntable topper if they appear dirty or obscured.
  • Adjust the lighting conditions in your scanning environment to avoid glare or shadows.
  • Refer to your Revopoint 3D scanner's manual for specific tracking troubleshooting.
• Unusual Noises:
  • Discontinue use and check for any obstructions or damage to the turntable mechanism.
  • If the issue persists, contact customer support.
