Every inscription. The Artec Spider II is the successor to the industry-favorite Space Spider — rebuilt for a new level of detail capture. Its blue-LED structured light and precision optics resolve geometry down to 0.05 mm (0.002 in), faithfully digitizing sharp edges, thin ribs, deep holes, and fine engravings that defeat ordinary scanners. Hybrid geometry-and-color tracking means no targets, no markers, and no surface prep — you pick it up and scan, with zero contact. That keeps medical settings sterile, forensic evidence untouched, and delicate artifacts safe. Built-in temperature stabilization brings the scanner to its optimal operating point quickly and holds it there, delivering repeatable, long-term-predictable accuracy across changing environmental conditions — the trait that makes Spider II a true precision instrument rather than just a scanner. See the Artec Spider II in action Watch Artec's official introduction — a new standard in resolution and detail capture. Precision engineering, effortless workflow Ultra-high resolution capture designed to feel as easy as it is exact. 🔬0.05 mm resolution & accuracy Resolve fine engravings, thin ribs, and sharp edges at 0.05 mm (0.002 in) — among the highest-detail handheld capture available. 🎯Target-free, contact-free Hybrid geometry + color tracking locks onto the object itself. No stickers, sprays, or setup — and zero physical contact with the part. 💙Blue-light technology Blue LED structured light captures precise geometry with reduced sensitivity to challenging dark and shiny surfaces. 📐Wider field of view An expanded 171 × 152 mm (6.7 × 6.0 in) field of view covers more surface per pass — faster scans with less risk of missed areas. ⚡30 FPS capture Real-time fusion at 30 frames per second and up to 8 million points per second — scan at a pace that feels natural. 🌡️Temperature stabilization Reaches and holds optimal operating temperature for repeatable accuracy and long-term predictable results in changing conditions. 🎨5 Mpx true-to-life color A 5-megapixel sensor captures texture in 24-bit color depth, pairing exact geometry with vibrant, realistic texture. 🔌Thunderbolt 3 data transfer High-volume scan data moves fast — Thunderbolt 3 (Thunderbolt 4 compatible) keeps capture and processing responsive. 🧩Full Artec ecosystem Merge Spider II data with scans from Leo, Eva, or Micro II in Artec Studio — fine detail and large coverage in one model. Built for small objects and fine detail on larger ones With a working distance of 0.19–0.3 m (7.5–11.8 in) and 110 mm (4.3 in) depth of field, Spider II excels at small-to-medium objects — from coins to engine components — and at capturing intricate regions of larger parts in detail no general-purpose scanner can match. Coins & inscriptions Molded parts & tooling PCBs & connectors Keys & small mechanical parts Turbine & impeller blades Jewelry & artifacts Ears & anatomy for medical Engine components Spider II's blue light is eye-safe and completely contact-free — suitable for scanning body parts in medical applications, untouched forensic evidence, and fragile heritage objects.

Frequently asked questions What is the Artec Spider II and what makes it different? The Artec Spider II is an ultra-high resolution handheld 3D scanner built on blue-LED structured light. It captures geometry and full color at up to 0.05 mm (0.002 in) resolution and accuracy — resolving sharp edges, thin ribs, deep holes, and fine engravings — with no targets, markers, or surface preparation. It's the successor to the Artec Space Spider, delivering twice the resolution and four times the capture speed of its predecessor. How much does the Artec Spider II cost? The Artec Spider II's US list price is $29,700, set by Artec 3D. The Spider II Premium Pack bundles the scanner with an Artec Turntable, 5 m Thunderbolt optical cable, battery, extended 5-year warranty, 5-year Artec Care contract, and a 5-year Artec Studio subscription. As a Gold-Certified reseller we can quote current promotions and special education pricing. Request a quote above for the best available price. Does the Artec Spider II need a computer? Yes. Spider II is a tethered scanner that connects to a Windows computer over Thunderbolt 3 (compatible with Thunderbolt 4 hosts) and captures directly into Artec Studio. The high-bandwidth connection is what lets it move up to 8 million points per second of ultra-high resolution data in real time. If you need a fully standalone, computer-free scanner, look at the Artec Leo. How accurate is the Artec Spider II? The Spider II delivers 3D point accuracy up to 0.05 mm (0.002 in), resolution up to 0.05 mm (0.002 in), and accuracy over distance of 0.05 mm + 0.3 mm/m. Built-in temperature stabilization brings it to optimal operating temperature quickly and maintains repeatable, long-term predictable accuracy across changing environmental conditions. What size objects can the Spider II scan? Spider II is designed for small-to-medium objects — everything from coins, keys, and PCBs up to engine components — plus fine-detail regions of larger objects. Its working distance is 0.19–0.3 m (7.5–11.8 in) with a 171 × 152 mm (6.7 × 6.0 in) maximum field of view. For large objects and full scenes, pair it with an Artec Leo or Eva and merge the data in Artec Studio. Artec Spider II vs. Space Spider — what's the difference? The Spider II is the next generation of the Space Spider, with twice the resolution and four times the capture speed, plus a larger 171 × 152 mm field of view, a 5 Mpx 24-bit color sensor, Thunderbolt 3 data transfer, and enhanced algorithms. If you're upgrading from a Space Spider, the workflow in Artec Studio stays familiar while capture becomes significantly faster and more detailed. Artec Spider II vs. Artec Leo — which should I choose? They solve different problems. Choose the Spider II for maximum detail on small-to-medium objects — 0.05 mm (0.002 in) resolution for edges, engravings, and intricate geometry. Choose the Leo for wireless freedom on medium-to-large objects, people, and scenes at 0.1 mm (0.004 in) accuracy. Many professional workflows use both: Leo for overall coverage, Spider II for critical detail regions, merged in Artec Studio. Do I need targets or markers to scan with the Spider II? No. Spider II uses hybrid geometry and color tracking to lock onto the object itself — no targets, stickers, or sprays for most surfaces. That saves setup time and enables completely contact-free capture, which matters in sterile medical settings, forensic scenes, and work with fragile or restricted objects. What software does the Spider II use and what file formats does it export? Spider II captures and processes in Artec Studio. Exports include mesh formats (OBJ, PLY, WRL, STL, AOP, ASC, PTX, E57, XYZRGB), CAD formats (STEP, IGES, X_T), and measurement formats (CSV, DXF, XML) — flowing directly into SolidWorks, Geomagic Design X, Geomagic Control X, and other engineering tools.

For large objects, pair it with an Artec Leo or Eva and merge data in Artec Studio." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Artec Spider II vs. Space Spider — what's the difference?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "The Spider II is the next generation of the Space Spider, with twice the resolution and four times the capture speed, plus a larger 171 × 152 mm field of view, a 5 Mpx 24-bit color sensor, Thunderbolt 3 data transfer, and enhanced algorithms." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Artec Spider II vs. Artec Leo — which should I choose?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Choose the Spider II for maximum detail on small-to-medium objects — 0.05 mm (0.002 in) resolution for edges, engravings, and intricate geometry. Choose the Leo for wireless freedom on medium-to-large objects, people, and scenes at 0.1 mm (0.004 in) accuracy. Many professional workflows use both, merged in Artec Studio." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Do I need targets or markers to scan with the Spider II?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "No. Spider II uses hybrid geometry and color tracking to lock onto the object itself — no targets, stickers, or sprays for most surfaces. That enables completely contact-free capture for sterile medical settings, forensic scenes, and fragile objects." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Is 3DMakerWorld an official Artec 3D reseller?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Yes. 3DMakerWorld is an official Gold-Certified Artec 3D Reseller — the highest tier of Artec reseller authorization — with offices in Naperville, IL and Lenexa, KS, providing pre-sale consultations, hands-on demos, onboarding, and ongoing US-based support." } }, { "@type": "Question", "name": "Is there special pricing for schools and universities?", "acceptedAnswer": { "@type": "Answer", "text": "Yes.
