| | + | Artec Spider |
| | + | |
| | + | #Connection & Power |
| | + | ##Check USB cable is securely connected to both scanner and computer. |
| | + | ##Confirm the blue LED on the scanner is lit. |
| | + | ##Try a different USB port (preferably USB 3.0) and avoid hubs. |
| | + | #Software Setup |
| | + | ##Ensure Artec Studio is updated to the latest version. |
| | + | ##Select the Spider in the device list before starting a scan. |
| | + | #Calibration & Warm-Up |
| | + | ##Let the Spider warm up for 10–15 minutes before scanning—its structured light projector is sensitive to temperature. |
| | + | ##Perform a calibration using the supplied calibration panel if scans show distortion or misalignment. |
| | + | #Scanning Conditions |
| | + | ##Keep the scanner 20–30 cm from the object for optimal resolution. |
| | + | ##Maintain smooth, steady movement—avoid jerky panning. |
| | + | #Tracking Issues |
| | + | ##Add tracking markers or place the object on a textured background if tracking is lost. |
| | + | ##Reduce object or turntable movement during scanning. |
| | + | |
| | + | Artec Eva |
| | + | |
| | + | #Connection & Power |
| | + | ##Verify USB 3.0 cable is fully seated—Eva draws more power than Spider. |
| | + | ##Check for the green LED on the scanner head. |
| | + | #Software Setup |
| | + | ##Update Artec Studio to the latest version. |
| | + | ##Select Eva from the scanner list in the software. |
| | + | #Calibration |
| | + | ##Eva does not require frequent warm-up, but recalibrate if geometry appears distorted. |
| | + | #Scanning Conditions |
| | + | ##Maintain 40–100 cm distance from the object. |
| | + | ##Ensure good, even lighting; avoid strong shadows or direct sunlight. |
| | + | #Tracking Stability |
| | + | ##Scan with a background that has texture; plain walls or empty tables can cause tracking loss. |
| | + | ##Use larger sweeps to capture big surfaces and avoid sudden movements. |
| | + | #Performance & Data Handling |
| | + | ##Close other software to give more resources to Artec Studio. |
| | + | ##Save large scans frequently to avoid data loss. |
| | + | ##If lag occurs, reduce capture resolution or scan sections separately and align later. |
