3D Scanner Dymo Revopoint MetroY Pro — handheld 3D digitizer, METRO-Y-PRO

Dymo Revopoint MetroY Pro is a handheld 3D scanner designed to capture detailed geometry and surface textures of objects across a range of sizes. As a portable 3D digitizer, it provides real-time data transfer to a connected computer for immediate visualization and processing. The device is intended for applications such as reverse engineering, prototyping, quality inspection, and digital archiving, offering a balance of portability and precision for hobbyists, designers, and small production environments.

Advantages

The MetroY Pro combines handheld convenience with high-resolution capture, enabling accurate scans of complex shapes and textured surfaces. Its real-time connection to a computer facilitates quick previews and iterative scanning without lengthy setup. The scanner’s portability and straightforward workflow reduce the time from physical object to digital model, while compatibility with common 3D processing software supports export and further editing.

Suitable for

• Reverse engineering of mechanical parts and consumer products
• Rapid prototyping and 3D model creation for product design
• Inspection and dimensional checking of small to medium-sized objects
• Digital archiving and cultural heritage preservation of artifacts
• Hobbyist projects, model making, and education

Key specifications

• Handheld form factor for flexible scanning angles and mobility
• Capture of geometry and surface texture suitable for color-textured models
• Real-time data transfer to a connected computer for live preview and control
• Compatible with common 3D processing and editing workflows for export and post-processing
• Designed for small to medium object sizes with focus on detailed feature capture

How to use

Connect the MetroY Pro to a computer using the provided interface and launch the compatible scanning software. Position the handheld scanner at an appropriate distance from the object and move steadily to cover all visible surfaces, monitoring the live preview to ensure complete coverage. Adjust scanning parameters such as resolution and exposure in the software if needed, and perform multiple passes for detailed areas. After capture, use the software tools to align, merge, and clean the point cloud or mesh before exporting to standard 3D file formats for further editing or manufacturing.

Usage recommendations

For best results, scan in consistent ambient lighting and avoid reflective or transparent surfaces without preparation. Use markers or a turntable when scanning small or symmetric objects to improve alignment. Export scans to your preferred CAD or mesh-editing software for measurement, refinement, and reverse engineering tasks.
