| | + | Artec Spider – Troubleshooting Checklist |
| | + | (High-precision, small-object scanner) |
| | + | |
| | + | #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 |
| | + | |
| | + | *Ensure the object is matte—apply 3D scanning spray if it’s shiny or transparent. |
| | + | |
| | + | *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. |
