The price of a 3D foot scanner depends mainly on the following criteria:
1. Scanning accuracy: The higher the accuracy, the more expensive it is. Ordinary consumer-grade accuracy is at the millimeter level, while professional medical or shoe research and development equipment can reach the micron level.
2. Scanning method: Laser scanning is usually more expensive than optical scanning or structured light scanning, and handheld scanners may be more portable but more expensive than fixed equipment.
3. Applicable scenarios: Scanners used for footwear customization are generally cheaper, while equipment used for medical foot analysis requires higher accuracy and professional software support, so the price is higher.
4. Brand and technology: Equipment from internationally renowned brands is usually more expensive than domestic brands, especially high-end products with patented technology or software optimization.
5. Additional functions: If it supports automatic measurement, data cloud storage, AI analysis and other functions, the price will increase.
Generally speaking, the price of consumer-grade products ranges from several thousand to tens of thousands of yuan, the price of professional-grade products ranges from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of yuan, and medical-grade or customized equipment may reach hundreds of thousands of yuan or even higher.
