I read in the previous year's web archive that its better to choose non shiny object to scan. I decided to scan my suede shoe.
I followed these steps to scan my object:
1. Turn the scanning machine on and open Geomagic studio. Click on Plug- ins and select and click Konica Minolta 910 Plug-In v90
2. It will ask you if you want to
calibrate the turnable axis. Click yes and set the white chart on the turnable by matching the 3 points to the center and the outer circle of the turnable.
3. Open the image viewer and click on
Update range and color image. The center of the image spectrum should show yellow or orange in the middle. If not then uncheck the auto focus and manually set the distance. later I also unchecked the ‘Auto Intensity’. Once you calibrate the turnable axis, it will show the Z turnable axis on the screen.
4. Put your object on the turnable and check the settings again on the image viewer. Select
Multishot as Scan mode and set value for
rotation step. I set the rotation step to 45 for my initial scan but later changed it to 20 when I scanned the second time.
5. Click
Scan and
Next till the object is fully scanned. It shows 360a when turnable takes one complete round.
Click Ok
