3D Scanningspray from REFLECON®
3D scanning technology is revolutionising many parts of industry. In manufacturing, healthcare, automotive, engineering – 3D scanning can be used in many industries to increase productivity, reduce costs, make products better or develop new products.
What do you need 3D scanning sprays for?
3D scanning sprays are used for matting and antireflection coating of highly reflective, mirror-like, transparent and very dark surfaces. This enables them to be scanned better in optical measurement (e.g. 3D laser scanning) technology and complex geometries to be measured more precisely and quickly. Especially when 3D scanning components, the sprays prove to be indispensable. The REFLECON® 3D scanning spray is sprayed onto the surfaces beforehand.
What types of matting sprays are there?
Basically, there are two types of 3D scanning sprays:
- Sublimating scanning sprays (our REFLECON® TARNISH – TYPE 1)
- Permanent scanning sprays (our REFLECON® TARNISH – TYPE 2)
Sublimating 3D scanning sprays are particularly suitable for large objects, for paint layers and plastics.
Since the applied spray evaporates after a while, it does not have to be removed over a large area.
Thus, it is also advantageous for objects that are difficult to clean, including small or delicate objects.
Permanent 3D scanning sprays are well suited for non-coated objects, metals, non-metals and thermoplastics.
When applied, a fine white layer of powder forms that must be removed later. Removal is effortless using a cloth,
brush or simply water. The permanent spray is particularly recommended for time-intensive scanning processes,
as it does not automatically evaporate.
Fields of application for the 3D scanning spray from REFLECON®
Optical measurement (e.g. 3D laser scanning) is used in various sectors of industry. The following industrial sectors are typical:
- Aerospace
- Space technology
- Automotive
- Medical technology (for example in prosthesis construction)
- General industrial applications such as mechanical engineering
- Culture and art
The process of optical measurement (e.g. 3D laser scanning) and the 3D scanning sprays are used in surface inspection, optical testing and measurement, reverse engineering, quality control and research and development.
3D scanning objects: For what materials are 3D scanning sprays suitable?
REFLECON® scanning sprays are suitable for a variety of materials, such as:
- Glass
- Metals and non-metals

Additional accessories for your 3D processes – from reference points to print bed maintenance
REFLECON® reference points – precise alignment during 3D scanning
The new REFLECON® reference points are the ideal complement to our scanning sprays. They are used in 3D digitisation with optical measuring systems and serve to precisely align structured light or laser scanners. They facilitate precise positioning and the registration of multiple individual images, especially for complex objects or larger scanning areas.
Your advantages:
Compatible with common 3D scanners
High adhesive strength, removable without leaving residue
Available in different sizes and contrasts
Ideal for industrial applications, quality assurance and reverse engineering
REFLECON® reference points provide the ideal basis for accurate measurement results and efficient scanning processes – especially when used in combination with our proven scanning sprays.
REFLECON® 3D Build Plate Cleaner – cleanliness for precise printing processes
The REFLECON® Build Plate Cleaner is a standalone solution for cleaning print beds in FDM, SLA or other 3D printing processes.
