EinScan Rigil 3-In-1 3D Scanner

EinScan Rigil (V1.2)

The EinScan Rigil is a professional handheld laser 3D scanner designed for demanding workflows in reverse engineering, industrial inspection, product design, and digital archiving. The latest Rigil V1.2 update introduces improved scanning performance, expanded standalone functionality, and marker-free laser scanning workflows, giving users greater freedom when capturing objects in the field or workshop.

Equipped with a tri-mode scanning system—Single Line, Cross Line, and Multi Line—the Rigil adapts to different object geometries while maintaining high precision and stable tracking. Combined with hybrid light technology, integrated computing hardware, and wireless connectivity, the Rigil enables accurate, high-speed 3D capture without the complexity typically associated with industrial 3D scanning systems.

Rigil V1.2 – All-in-One Scanning, Evolved

The latest EinScan Rigil V1.2 update enhances the scanner’s standalone workflow and expands its tracking capabilities. One of the most important improvements is the introduction of marker-free laser scanning in standalone mode, allowing users to capture objects without applying reference markers while working directly from the scanner’s onboard interface.

V1.2 also introduces multi-project alignment in standalone mode, making it easier to merge multiple scans directly on the device without requiring a connected PC. This greatly improves flexibility when scanning large objects, complex assemblies, or multi-angle capture workflows in field environments.

Scanning performance has also been significantly improved. The updated engine increases overall efficiency by up to 50%, while the new 25+25 crossed laser line configuration improves coverage and tracking stability. In PC mode, parallel laser scanning can improve efficiency by up to 60%, while marker-free laser scanning workflows can achieve up to 250% faster scanning performance in suitable scenarios.

Rigil V1.2 Update – New Capabilities

Alongside these new capabilities, the V1.2 update also delivers improved scan stability, tracking reliability, and processing performance across the entire scanning workflow. These optimisations help maintain accurate alignment during longer scanning sessions and reduce the likelihood of drift when capturing complex geometries.

This is particularly valuable when scanning large objects, reflective surfaces, or detailed mechanical components where maintaining tracking consistency is essential. Faster data processing also helps produce smoother scanning sessions with fewer interruptions during capture, making the EinScan Rigil an even more capable tool for engineers, inspection technicians, and reverse engineering specialists working both in the lab and in field environments.

Tri-Mode Laser Scanning

EinScan Rigil features three dedicated scanning modes—Single Line, Cross Line, and Multi Line—making it adaptable for a wide range of scanning applications. Each mode is designed for different scanning scenarios, allowing users to balance speed, detail capture, and tracking stability depending on the geometry of the object being scanned.

Single-line scanning is ideal for capturing fine features and sharp edges, while cross-line scanning improves tracking performance across complex shapes. Multi-line scanning enables rapid data acquisition for larger surfaces such as automotive body panels, industrial components, or sculptural objects. Together, these modes allow operators to maintain consistent scan quality across a wide variety of surfaces and geometries.

Hybrid Light Source

The Rigil combines structured infrared scanning with blue laser technology to maximise surface compatibility and reduce scan errors. This hybrid approach allows the scanner to operate effectively across a wide range of materials including dark surfaces, reflective coatings, and complex textures.

By intelligently switching between scanning technologies, the Rigil can maintain accurate geometry capture without requiring excessive surface preparation. This makes it well suited for automotive inspection, tooling verification, product development, and reverse engineering workflows where scan reliability and efficiency are essential.

High-Definition Laser Mode

The HD Laser Mode delivers scanning accuracy of up to 0.04 mm with point resolution down to 0.05 mm. This level of precision allows the scanner to capture intricate surface details and sharp edges required for engineering analysis and reverse engineering tasks.

This mode is particularly useful for inspecting mechanical components, scanning tooling parts, capturing heritage artefacts, or creating accurate CAD references. High-density scan data enables engineers to generate reliable digital models with minimal post-processing.

Full Colour Texture Capture

Rigil includes an integrated colour camera that captures texture data alongside geometric information. This enables the scanner to produce colourised 3D models suitable for digital archiving, product visualisation, cultural preservation, and game asset creation.

Texture information is mapped directly onto the generated mesh, creating visually accurate models that maintain both geometric precision and realistic surface appearance. This capability makes the Rigil valuable for workflows where both measurement accuracy and visual fidelity are required.

Optimised Hardware Integration

12-Camera Tracking

Advanced multi-camera tracking maintains stable alignment during scanning, even when scanning complex geometries or moving around large objects.

All-in-One Design

Integrated computing hardware enables standalone scanning without requiring a connected laptop, while USB-C and wireless connectivity support flexible workflows.

High-Speed Data Capture

High point-capture rates enable rapid scanning of large surfaces while maintaining consistent geometric accuracy across the dataset.

EXScan Rigil Software Platform

EinScan Rigil operates with the EXScan Rigil software ecosystem, which provides tools for scan alignment, mesh generation, measurement, and export. Users can process captured data directly within the software before exporting models in formats such as STL, OBJ, PLY, or ASC.

The software also supports integration with reverse engineering tools and CAD platforms, making it easier to convert captured scan data into usable engineering models for design iteration, inspection, or manufacturing analysis.
