From March 17 to 19, 2025, TCT Asia—the flagship exhibition for the additive manufacturing industry in the Asia-Pacific region—will take place at the National Exhibition and Convention Center (Shanghai). Bringing together over 450 industry-leading companies, the event will showcase comprehensive, end-to-end solutions spanning the entire industry chain, from 3D scanning, engineering software, and additive manufacturing equipment to post-processing.
This exhibition brings together industry leaders and cutting-edge achievements in fields such as 3D printing, additive manufacturing, and 3D scanning. As a frontrunner in 3D industrial inspection technology, XTOP3D is showcasing its XTOM industrial-grade blue-light 3D scanner and the XTOM-TransForm-ROB automated 3D scanning and inspection system, delivering comprehensive, professional solutions for applications ranging from industrial inspection and reverse engineering to 3D-printed part analysis, education, and research.
In the fields of 3D printing and additive manufacturing, 3D scanning technology is emerging as an indispensable core capability. Compared to traditional modeling software, 3D scanning offers a faster, more streamlined approach; it accurately captures point cloud data from 3D-printed components and converts them into digital 3D models ready for immediate printing. Furthermore, by leveraging high-precision 3D data capture to compare geometric deviations against original CAD models, it establishes a comprehensive "inspection-optimization-remanufacturing" workflow, thereby overcoming technical bottlenecks inherent in traditional production methods.
With a fresh new look and a team of technical experts, XTOP3D meticulously curated an industrial blue-light 3D scanning exhibition zone. On-site demonstrations showcased the technology's applications—ranging from the design and prototyping of 3D-printed parts to automated batch inspection—across sectors such as automotive manufacturing, aerospace, 3C injection molding, medical devices, and mold making. The display highlighted key processes including product design, production inspection, and optimization, attracting significant interest and engagement from fellow exhibitors and industry professionals.
The XTOM industrial-grade blue-light 3D scanner offers multiple measurement fields of view (400mm×300mm, 200mm×150mm, and 100mm×75mm) and supports standard, precision, and monocular deep-hole scanning modes to meet diverse application requirements. It rapidly acquires the overall workpiece profile, precisely captures surface details, and accurately identifies hole locations, enabling the scanning of complex contours and structures.

Reverse Engineering and Design Optimization
-
Rapid Modeling: Blue-light 3D scanning quickly captures high-precision 3D data from existing objects (such as parts, molds, or artworks) to generate digital models in formats like STL and OBJ, facilitating direct reverse engineering for 3D printing.
-
Repair and Improvement: After scanning worn or damaged parts, software is used to repair defects or optimize structures (e.g., via topology optimization or lightweight design), regenerating a printable model.
-
Personalized Customization: In fields such as industrial design, healthcare, and art, scanning existing components or objects tailored to individual needs allows for the rapid generation of compatible 3D printing files.
3D Inspection Capabilities
-
Printed Part Inspection: By comparing scan data with the original design model, the system detects dimensional errors, surface defects, or deformations in 3D-printed products, ensuring compliance with tolerance requirements.
-
Process Monitoring: Scanning critical layers or specific areas during the printing process enables real-time verification of print quality and parameter adjustment (e.g., compensating for shrinkage or deformation).
-
Batch Production Consistency: In industrial-grade additive manufacturing, blue-light 3D scanning technology efficiently inspects the geometric consistency of mass-produced items, reducing the costs associated with manual spot checks.
-
Deep-hole scanning mode allows for the capture of data from grooves and gaps; measurement data remains stable across multiple scans, with single-shot accuracy reaching ±0.008 mm.
