What your metrology engineer actually checks
Accuracy certified to a standard
Single-shot accuracy down to 0.005 mm and point distance to 0.04 mm (5M Plus-100), with VDI/VDE 2634 Part 3 accuracy certification from Shining 3D’s ISO 17025-certified lab and calibration certificates traceable to international standards (subject to the actual certificates issued). One-click marker alignment and the GREC global deviation control module reduce alignment errors across multi-scan datasets.

The Shining 3D OptimScan-5M Plus is a stationary, blue-light structured-light metrology scanner that pairs two 5 MP industrial cameras with a 1080P DLP projector to capture small, high-value parts at up to 0.005 mm single-shot accuracy, with accuracy certification to VDI/VDE 2634 Part 3 from Shining 3D’s ISO 17025-certified lab.
Why metrology teams choose the OptimScan-5M Plus
Single-shot accuracy down to 0.005 mm on small, high-value parts.
Accuracy down to 0.005 mm
Single-shot accuracy down to 0.005 mm and point distance to 0.04 mm (5M Plus-100), with VDI/VDE 2634 Part 3 accuracy certification from Shining 3D’s ISO 17025-certified lab and built-in environmental vibration detection.
Three lens configurations, one system
Interchangeable 100/200/400 optics trade scan area for resolution: 100 × 75 mm at 0.04 mm point distance up to 400 × 300 mm at 0.16 mm — one system covers small precision parts through mid-size assemblies.
Automatic marker alignment + GREC control
One-click marker alignment and the GREC global-deviation-control module minimize cumulative error across multi-scan datasets; built-in environmental vibration detection flags an unstable setup before it corrupts a scan.
HDR for high-contrast parts
Narrow-band blue LED structured light with an HDR function for high-contrast objects such as black-and-white surfaces; Shining 3D has published a smartphone glass-panel inspection case with this scanner. No color camera — built for dimensional geometry.

Scanning Performance
The OptimScan-5M Plus pairs two 5 MP industrial cameras with a 1080P blue-LED DLP projector across three interchangeable lens configurations. The -100 lens resolves 0.04 mm point distance and 0.005 mm single-shot accuracy over a 100 × 75 mm field; the -200 lens covers 200 × 150 mm at 0.08 mm point distance and 0.01 mm accuracy; the -400 lens extends to 400 × 300 mm at 0.16 mm point distance and 0.015 mm accuracy. Each scan completes in 1.5 seconds or less, and the one-click automatic marker alignment and GREC global deviation control modules reduce alignment errors across multi-scan datasets. See full specifications below.
Working Range & Portability
Working distance is fixed at 560 mm across all three lens configurations, with the system mounted in a stable position for benchtop or shop-floor use — this is a stationary metrology scanner, not a handheld device. At 6.8 kg and 435 × 300 × 200 mm, it stays compact enough to move between inspection stations but remains tethered to a workstation over USB 3.0; there is no battery or wireless mode. Operating range is 0–40 °C and 10–90% RH.
Software & Workflow
OptimScan software is included with no subscription and runs the workflow — calibration, scanning, data editing, and AI data cleanup — exporting .asc, .stl, .obj and more. Shining 3D lists Geomagic Design X, PolyWorks, Geomagic Control X, and BlueStar Mapping as compatible software. Shining 3D’s recommended PC: Windows 10/11 Pro 64-bit, Intel Core i7-11700 or above, 32 GB RAM or more, NVIDIA RTX 3060 or above with 6 GB+ VRAM, and a USB 3.0 port. The system does not capture full-color texture — it is built for dimensional geometry, not documentation scans.
Typical applications
