OPTI4.0ToolScan3DFROM YOUR WORKSHOP TO A DIGITAL TOOL
A photo from your phone. Dimensions, recognition and a 3D tool model in one workflow.
Meet OPTI4.0 ToolScan3D.
Digitise tools and holders on iOS and Android.
ToolScan3D produces preliminary estimates from photographs, not exact measurement results or guaranteed accuracy. Estimation and calibration
WHO IT HELPS
From CAM programming to tool preparation: use the checked geometry of the assembly that is actually on your machine.
For CAM programmers
Load a checked 3D model of the tool and holder used on the machine into your CAM simulation. Its actual overhang and holder shape help you review clearance around the workpiece and fixtures.
Less manual modelling. A better prepared simulation.
For CNC programmers and operators
Prepare tool geometry for supported controllers with the appropriate CNC module. Compatibility depends on the controller, its collision-checking options and the enabled export adapter.
Use checked assembly data in the machine’s own verification workflow.
For tool preparation and workshop teams
Create a dimensioned drawing of the tool and holder. Clearly recorded diameters, overhang and component choices help with tool preparation, handover and repeat setups.
One shared reference from preparation to the next shift.
Check dimensions, reference positions and exported geometry in the target system before collision checking. Photo-based models are preliminary estimates. ToolScan3D supplies geometry; collision checking is performed by your CAM or CNC system.

Prepare the photo, review the estimates and build a digital tool assembly.
Camera calibration
Place a clean reference sheet on a flat surface. Select its actual format and check its dimensions.
Place the tool on the sheet. Use supports where possible to keep its axis horizontal and parallel to the sheet plane.
Specify the machine-side mounting system, such as SK40, BT40 or HSK. Its known geometry provides another reference.
Keep the camera above the tool. Choose the optical lens or zoom that fits the assembly best within the green frame; avoid digital zoom.
Review the estimated dimensions and correct them using independent measurements. A photo does not guarantee dimensional accuracy.
If recognition is missing or incorrect, manually select the toolholding type, such as ER32 or ER40. This differs from the machine-side interface.
Check the cutting-tool type and correct its diameter, cutting length and other relevant parameters.
Build the complete toolholder and cutting-tool model from the reviewed parameters. Check the assembly before use.
The base licence includes STL and STEP model generation. Independently verify the exported geometry before machining.
Optional modules provide GTC, TopSolid and supported CNC outputs, such as MAZAK and OKUMA. Available outputs follow the enabled modules.
The images illustrate the workflow; they are not evidence of automatic recognition or certified measurement accuracy.

Calibrate the camera using calibration sheets to improve the estimation. Use the same camera, lens and zoom for calibration and measurement.
Print at 100% actual size without fit-to-page scaling. Check the printed reference dimensions and place the sheets flat.
Following the app instructions, photograph the calibration sheets across the image area. Keep the camera, lens and zoom unchanged and use even lighting.
Use the calibration profile matching the device, camera, lens, image resolution and zoom. Verify the result against independent measurements.
Calibration can improve estimates, but does not guarantee accuracy or replace a calibrated measuring instrument.

MORE THAN A TOOL PHOTO
The tool, holder and their data in one digital workflow.
Process tool markings, manufacturer identifiers and component data, with a separately rechargeable AI balance.
Type library, holder references and assembly drawings dimensioned from the holder datum.
STL and STEP in the base package. Optional GTC and controller-specific CNC exports.
MODULAR TOOLKIT
A base package with focused add-ons.
Company purchasing, assignable seats,
managed centrally in Control.
The foundation of your digital workflow.
CNC: up to 3 trial exports per module, 10 in total. GTC: 3 separate trial exports.
No matching module. Try another search.
Purchased modules require the appropriate base licence. Machine-specific exports must also be verified on your own controller.

Apply for free testing while we complete the testing phase. We will contact you about access; no payment is requested.
Estimation accuracy is affected by the actual dimensions and flatness of the reference sheet, the selected sheet format, camera and lens distortion, perspective, lighting and shadows in the photograph.
Calibrating the camera using the application's calibration sheets can improve the estimate. Use the correct print scale and follow the calibration instructions. Calibration does not eliminate every source of error and does not guarantee accuracy.
To the maximum extent permitted by mandatory law, CAD-CAM Solutions Kft. excludes financial liability for losses arising from use of the software's estimates, models or outputs. Liability that cannot lawfully be excluded remains unaffected.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
ToolScan3D is being developed for iOS and Android. Available release and store links appear under downloads; public store availability is shown only with verified links.
STL and STEP export are included in the base package. CNC modules, GTC export and AI top-ups are handled separately.
The company admin can assign ten seats to colleagues, revoke a seat and reassign it. Base-licence and add-on permissions are tracked separately.
It covers AI image analysis and identification usage. Buying an export module does not include unlimited AI use.
Control uses invitation-based registration. The company admin invites a colleague, who completes registration through the link received. You can also contact us below for company access.
