The proven and trusted patented technology, the HandySCAN 3D|PRO Series captures accurate and repeatable 3D measurements of any complex surface, in any location. As an all-in-one 3D scanner, it delivers enhanced performance and reliability for any reverse engineering project.
With integrated solutions combining 3D scanners and innovative software platforms, Creaform delivers all the necessary information to develop new parts accurately and efficiently on the first try, eliminating multiple trial-and-error iterations and reducing the processing time required to integrate 3D models into CAD software.
Our integrated hardware and software provide users with the most intuitive, easy-to-use experience.
Our high-resolution 3D scanners extract superior mesh quality with the finest details.
Our 3D solutions deliver long-term value through continuous algorithm optimization and new feature additions.
Our superior 3D scanning algorithms and blue laser technology allow measuring any surface type.
Part of the Creaform Metrology Suite, Scan-to-CAD Pro is an advanced software module built for who want to sketch and model directly on scan data—supporting operations from cross-section extraction to solid feature creation and complete parametric CAD models.

Scan-to-CAD Pro is perfectly tailored for SolidWorks, allowing the complete timeline to be transferred. This means any sketches or models can be reopened in SolidWorks as native components. For other popular CAD platforms, like Autodesk and Inventor, the CAD model can be used, along with transferred extracted entities or cross-sections. However, the full timeline won't be available.
By turning physical parts into accurate 3D data, Scan‑to‑CAD Pro provides powerful tools for easily extracting entities and design‑intent features (planes, cylinders, profiles) and for building sketches and models that are properly aligned and constrained. With seamless CAD design validation using a color map over the scan data, users can modify, validate, and iterate faster, reducing rework and accelerating time‑to‑market.
Yes, all HandySCAN 3D scanners from Creaform are engineered to handle complex geometries and surface types, including shiny, dark, or reflective materials, which are often found in industrial components.
Yes! While most CAD formats (.iges, .step) are not directly compatible with 3D printing, Scan-to-CAD Pro includes an export function that converts CAD models to STL format, making them ready for import into any additive manufacturing software.
The HandySCAN 3D scanners from Creaform are designed and manufactured in Canada. As a vertically integrated company, Creaform develops and produces all the scanners at its facilities in Lévis, Quebec, which is also where the company is headquartered. This helps to ensure top product performance and quality control.
Creaform has redefined the boundaries of metrology and continues to push the limits of scanning technology, setting new industry standards. This innovative spirit matches our commitment to solving our clients’ most complex challenges, driving us to continually refine our technology, raise expertise, and prioritize their needs.
