Professional-grade handheld 3D scanning for fine-detail capture, reverse engineering, inspection, product development, and demanding industrial applications — available as a used system at an exceptional value.
The Artec Space Spider established itself as one of Artec's most respected high-resolution handheld scanners. This used system provides professional-level scanning capability for organizations that need accurate small-part and fine-detail digitization while keeping equipment investment under control.
Artec Space Spider is a professional handheld 3D scanner designed to capture small objects and intricate areas of larger components with high accuracy, exceptional detail, and full-color texture.
Capture highly accurate geometry for reverse engineering, dimensional analysis, documentation, and engineering workflows.
Digitize fine surface details, edges, ribs, lettering, mechanical features, and intricate geometry.
Hybrid geometry and texture tracking minimizes preparation and eliminates the need to cover parts with reflective positioning targets.
Structured blue-light scanning delivers dense, accurate geometry suited to demanding professional applications.
Capture 24-bit color and texture data for documentation, visualization, digital archiving, and realistic 3D models.
Advanced thermal stabilization helps maintain consistent, repeatable scanning accuracy over extended scanning sessions.
Space Spider was originally developed to meet demanding requirements associated with use aboard the International Space Station. Its temperature stabilization and high-grade electronics help deliver repeatable measurement performance even when environmental temperatures fluctuate.
Designed to maintain consistent scanning performance throughout professional measurement and digitization workflows.
Space Spider reaches its optimum operating condition quickly, helping users get to accurate scanning faster.
Rugged engineering and a proven Artec scanning platform make Space Spider well suited to demanding industrial environments.
Space Spider excels when dimensional accuracy and fine detail are more important than capturing very large areas quickly.
Digitize legacy components and create accurate geometry for CAD reconstruction.
Capture manufactured parts for dimensional comparison and inspection workflows.
Scan brackets, housings, engine components, aftermarket parts, and mechanical assemblies.
Digitize tooling, molds, components, prototypes, and production parts.
Capture existing products and prototypes as a foundation for new designs.
Document evidence and intricate objects using non-contact 3D scanning.
Digitize sculptures, artifacts, historic items, and detailed cultural objects.
Capture complex organic geometry and detailed surfaces without physical contact.
Capture accurate geometry and color using handheld, target-free scanning.
Align, clean, register, and fuse scan data into a detailed 3D polygon mesh.
Export scan data into CAD and reverse-engineering software for editable design geometry.
Compare against CAD, create inspection reports, manufacture replacements, or develop new products.
