Capture complex geometry, dark surfaces, and chrome details with metrology-grade precision.
You don't restore classics or design aero kits by guessing. The Shining 3D FreeScan Combo Plus is the metrology tool built for the workshop, not just the lab. Whether you are digitising a Porsche 911 for custom wing fabrication or reverse-engineering an obsolete engine block, this scanner bridges the gap between physical parts and CAD perfection.

50 Laser Lines. 3.6 Million Points Per Second. The Ultimate Automotive Scanner.
The biggest bottleneck in automotive modification is getting accurate data from difficult surfaces quickly. Traditional scanners struggle with black paint, carbon fibre, and chrome trim. The FreeScan Combo Plus eliminates these issues.
Forget the vanishing spray. The Combo Plus utilises a massive array of 50 blue laser lines (almost double the standard model) combined with an infrared mode to capture glossy automotive finishes and black plastic trim directly.
Real-world application: Scan a dashboard, leather interior, or a gloss-black bumper without spending hours cleaning up scanning powder afterwards.
With a compact footprint (193mm x 63mm) and weighing just 620g, this unit fits where bulky structured-light scanners can't.
Deep Hole Scanning: The single-line laser mode is specifically engineered to capture deep pockets—perfect for bolt holes on cylinder heads or water jackets on engine blocks.
When machining billet parts or 3D printing functional prototypes, "close enough" doesn't cut it.
The Spec: Achieves 0.02mm accuracy with a volumetric accuracy of 0.02 + 0.033 mm/m.
The Result: Your scanned data matches the physical part perfectly, ensuring your CNC-machined moulds or 3D printed jigs fit the first time.
While standard scanners struggle to balance speed with detail, the Combo Plus offers a no-compromise solution for automotive professionals.
The standout feature of the Plus model. With 50 cross-laser lines (compared to 26 on the standard model), you achieve a scan speed of 3,600,000 points per second.
The Result: Scan a full car door, bonnet, or roof in half the time it takes with competitors.
Large objects usually mean accumulating errors. The Combo Plus mitigates this with a volumetric accuracy of 0.02mm + 0.033mm/m.
Real-world Application: This tight tolerance is critical when scanning the entire length of a vehicle (like the Porsche 911 GT3) to ensure front-to-rear alignment for side skirts and wide-body kits.
It’s not just about speed. Switch modes instantly:
7 Parallel Lines: For high-resolution capturing of VIN plates, intricate grille patterns, or dashboard textures.
Single Line Mode: Specifically designed to capture deep pockets and bolt holes on engine blocks that other scanners miss.

Q: What is the main difference between the Combo and the Combo Plus? A: Speed and Density. The Plus model features 50 laser lines (vs 26) and scans at 3.6 million points/second (vs 1.86 million). If you are scanning large objects like cars daily, the Plus will pay for itself in saved man-hours.
Q: Does the higher speed affect accuracy? A: No. You maintain the same 0.02mm accuracy standard. The increased line count simply allows you to capture that accurate data faster and with fewer passes over the surface.
Q: Can I scan a black car without spray? A: Yes. The Blue Laser technology is optimised for dark and reflective surfaces. You can scan carbon fibre, black paint, and even chrome trim directly.
Q: Do I need to use marker dots for everything? A: Not always. The Infrared Mode allows for feature-based alignment, which is great for scanning interiors or seats without sticking dots everywhere. However, for high-precision exterior work (like the Porsche body), we recommend markers to ensure the highest volumetric accuracy.
Q: Can this scan a whole car? A: Yes. With a scan speed of 3,600,000 points per second, the Combo Plus tracks excellent over large distances. For full vehicle scanning, we recommend using a "photogrammetry bar" or breaking the car into sections (Front, Middle, Rear) to maintain global accuracy.
Q: What computer specs do I need? A: We recommend a Windows 10/11 PC with at least 32GB RAM and an NVIDIA RTX 3060 or higher. 3D scanning is GPU-intensive!
