The Scan Handling module transforms an unstructured high-density point cloud into an optimized 3D surface model in 2-3 minutes. The following operations can all be performed automatically but the user always remains in control of the process.

Noise reduction
Noise and outliers are automatically removed from the imported point cloud for optimal quality.

Smart point cloud reduction
The system reduces the size of the point cloud while preserving a high level of detail in the relevant high-curvature areas.

Triangulation
Fast triangulation of point cloud data to create an accurate 3D surface.

Decimation
It is possible to further reduce the number of triangles that shape the 3D last model while preserving the accurate geometry in high-curvature areas.

Removal of holes and artefacts
Shoe lasts often have holes and artefacts that need to be removed from the 3D model. Advanced tools are used to automatically detect and remove holes and artefacts from the model's surface to produce a smooth and accurate 3D last model.

Plane cutting
Using a plane-cutting tool, it is easy to remove unwanted areas of the 3D last model, such as the top part of the last.
