FAQ
Feel free to reach out if your question isn't answered below!
What file types can I receive?
Our most common exports are STL and OBJ, but we can send you any of the following file types:
OBJ, STL, WRL, PLY, XYZ, RBG, E57, PTX, FBX, X3D, USD
What is a typical turnaround time?
On average it can take 1-3 days upon receiving the object to create the finished meshes. Every project is unique however and larger objects can take longer to process. To help us estimate a turn around time we suggest sending a photo of what you'd like scanned.
Can you scan shiny or clear objects?
Most structured light scanners have trouble with these, but we have special sprays we can use to make them scannable.
Can you scan body parts?
Yes, we can scan most body parts! At this time, Arkify is not able to scan an entire body at once, and can only scan in parts (e.g. hands, feet, faces).
Do I have to live in Portland to receive 3D scanning services?
Not at all! While we are based in Portland, our team is able to receive and send shipped items from anywhere in the US.
Can you scan at our location?
We operate in the Pacific Northwest (based in Portland Oregon) and are able to travel for larger jobs.
