3D-Scanning
3D-Scanning
Dream big… or small.
From pocket-sized shells to life-sized sculptures, we scan and scale physical objects to turn them into printable, high-resolution 3D models.
Why scan with Swellcycle?
- Turn any object into a 3D model: We capture the shape, surface, and texture of real-world things—ready for printing or digital use.
- Scale it up or down: Want to supersize a figurine or miniaturize a sculpture? We’ve got it covered.
- Complex shapes, no problem: Irregular geometry, undercuts, weird angles—we love a challenge.
- High precision: Our scanners capture fine surface detail and dimensional accuracy.
How it works
Bring it in. We’ll turn it into a file, and more.
Step 1: Come with a physical object
From a hand-shaped surfboard to a seashell, we’ll work with whatever you dream of.
Step 2: We scan it
Using high-resolution 3D capture tools, we create a digital model of your object.
Step 3: You get the file—or the finished print
We’ll send you a clean, watertight model—or go straight to print, scaled however you like.
Projects
Giant Shaka Lamp
Straight from a scan of Patricio’s hand, this oversized shaka was 3D printed and fitted with internal LED lighting—turning a simple gesture into a glowing tribute to good energy.
Sea Shell Lamp
Why not bring the ocean’s light into your space? This sculptural lamp started with a real sea shell we scanned, scaled up, and 3D printed—then fitted with internal LEDs to create a warm, glowing centerpiece.
