Revopoint Mini 2 3D Scanner

What is the minimum size object this scanner can capture?

The Mini 2 can scan objects with minimum dimensions of 10 x 10 x 10 mm. This makes it suitable for small components like jewellery, coins, electronic parts and miniature models. The working distance ranges from 120-250mm, allowing you to position the scanner appropriately for tiny objects whilst maintaining the required precision levels.

Do I need scanning spray for all materials?

Scanning spray is recommended for transparent, dark, or highly reflective materials that don't scatter light effectively. Materials like clear plastic, black rubber, polished metal, or glass benefit significantly from spray application. Standard materials with matte surfaces typically scan well without spray, though results may vary based on colour and texture properties.

Can I use this scanner with my smartphone or tablet?

Yes, the Mini 2 supports mobile scanning through Wi-Fi 6 connectivity with Android and iOS devices. The RevoScan mobile app provides full scanning functionality on compatible smartphones and tablets. This enables portable scanning workflows without requiring a laptop or desktop computer, though processing power may affect scan quality and speed.

What file formats does the scanner export?

The scanner exports to PLY, OBJ, STL, ASC, 3MF, GLTF and FBX formats through the included RevoScan software. STL files work directly with most 3D printing slicers, whilst OBJ and PLY formats suit general 3D modelling applications. The variety of export options ensures compatibility with professional CAD software, game engines and manufacturing workflows.

How accurate is the colour reproduction?

The RGB camera with 6 flash LEDs captures accurate colour information alongside geometric data. The larger aperture design improves colour accuracy in various lighting conditions. Colour data gets mapped precisely to the 3D geometry, creating photorealistic models suitable for visual applications, though colour accuracy depends on ambient lighting during scanning.

Does the scanner work with Windows and Mac computers?

The RevoScan software supports Windows 10/11 64-bit systems and macOS. The software requires x86_64 architecture, so ARM-based Macs may need compatibility layers. USB Type-C connection provides plug-and-play functionality on supported systems. Regular software updates ensure compatibility with latest operating system versions.

What is the maximum scanning area per frame?

Single capture area reaches 168 x 132 mm at 250mm working distance. This large capture area reduces the number of frames needed for bigger objects, speeding up the scanning process. The dual-camera system maintains accuracy across this entire capture area, ensuring consistent detail levels throughout the scanned model.

Can I scan shiny or metallic objects?

Shiny and metallic surfaces require scanning spray for optimal results due to their reflective properties. The blue light technology performs better on reflective surfaces compared to white light systems, but spray application eliminates specular reflections that can cause scan errors. Matte metallic finishes may scan adequately without spray depending on surface texture.
