How industrial 3D scanning can help manufacturing customers save 30% of quality inspection costs a year？

In manufacturing where profits are getting thinner and thinner, quality inspection is often the most easily ignored cost black hole. The traditional three-coordinate or fixture solution is not only expensive in equipment, but it takes 30-60 minutes for a single programming + clamping process. Once the product is iterated, tens of thousands of yuan will be added to the mold again. Think about SCANOLOGY's high-precision handheld laser scanning solution, changing "random inspection" into "full inspection" and "hours" into "minutes", providing B2B customers with a quantifiable cost-reduction path.

Saving equipment: One handheld scanner covers 0.2 m-4 m workpieces, eliminating the need for multiple inspection tools, and the hardware investment is reduced by 50%.

Labor saving: Single-piece scanning + automatic comparison report is completed in 5 minutes, which can reduce the number of quality inspection personnel by 2/3 under the same production capacity.

Saving rework: The real-time chromatogram is directly alarmed in the MES system, and defective products do not flow into the next process, and the rework rate drops by an average of 1.8 percentage points.

Saving space: The storage area of traditional inspection tools is>80 m². After digitalization, all templates are stored on the server, and there is "zero inventory" on site.

Taking an auto parts factory in East China as an example, it produces an annual output of 1.2 million brackets. After introducing the SCANOLOGY solution, the annual quality inspection cost is saved by approximately 2.18 million yuan, with an ROI≈5.2 months. Connecting the scan data with the SPC system can also generate PPAP and APQP report templates, increasing the one-time pass rate of customer review by 35%.

If you are looking for "visible" cost-reduction levers, 3D scanning is not a cost center, but a profit center.
