SHINING 3D EinScan HX2 Hybrid Blue Laser & LED Light Source · Full-Color Handheld · Shiny & Dark Surfaces
The previous-generation EinScan HX2 hybrid-light-source handheld 3D scanner — 13 blue-laser crosses for shiny and black surfaces plus a blue-LED Rapid mode for speed and full color, in one 745 g handheld. Superseded by the current EinScan Rigil.
The EinScan HX2 pairs a 13-cross blue-laser engine for fine detail and reflective or black surfaces with a blue-LED Rapid mode for fast capture and full-color texture, reaching up to 0.04 mm accuracy and 1,600,000 points/second. It has since been succeeded by the all-in-one EinScan Rigil. Full specifications →
The EinScan HX2 is a previous-generation, discontinued model. The current replacement is the EinScan Rigil — Rev1 will confirm availability of any remaining HX2 stock or map you to the current model. Questions? Call (248) 707-2950.

The EinScan HX2 Is Previous-Generation. The Current Model Is the EinScan Rigil.
Blue Laser for Shiny & Black Detail. Blue LED for Speed and Color.
One Handheld, Two Light Engines
The HX2 carries a blue-laser source and a blue-LED source in the same body. Laser mode projects 13 blue-laser crosses for high-detail data and handles reflective metal and black surfaces without heavy surface prep; LED Rapid mode floods a wider area for fast capture of medium-to-large parts. The dual light source means a single scanner covers shiny machined components, matte castings, and broad panels in the same session.
Most Objects in Minutes. On the Bench or Out in the Field.
Fast Capture That Goes Where the Part Is
At up to 1,600,000 points per second and 120 FPS in laser mode, the HX2 finishes most objects in minutes — the throughput that reverse engineering, CAD/CAM, and 3D-printing workflows need. The 745 g handheld and plug-and-play setup mean it travels to the subject: a fixture on the bench, a casting on the floor, or street furniture outdoors.
From the Workshop to the Restoration Bay
Plug-and-play operation and a comfortable, balanced body keep a long capture session moving without a workstation crate in tow. Automotive restoration, custom fabrication, and aftermarket fitment all benefit from a scanner that handles glossy paint and bare metal alike — panels, brackets, and trim digitize with one device in the bay where the car already sits.
Geometry and Color in One Pass. BlueStar Mapping for Photorealism.
Built-In Color Camera for True-to-Life Texture
A built-in color camera captures full-color texture alongside geometry in Rapid scan mode, so a vividly painted shoe, a decorated prop, or an art object keeps its appearance as well as its shape — in a single pass, with no separate texture rig. BlueStar Mapping simplifies the photorealistic mapping step, turning raw color capture into a clean textured model.
Up to 0.04 mm Accuracy. Data Ready for Inspection.
Precision Data for Reverse Engineering and QC
Laser-mode accuracy up to 0.04 mm with a 0.05 mm minimum point distance and 0.04 + 0.06 mm/m volumetric accuracy meets industrial demands for reverse engineering and dimensional measurement. Scan a complex part — a marine propeller, a turbine blade, a casting — and feed it straight into Geomagic Control X for first-article inspection and deviation analysis.
EXScan HX for Capture. Open Exports for Your CAD Stack.
The HX2 ships with EXScan HX and pairs with EXModel for one-click reverse engineering. Export into EXModel, Geomagic Design X, or PolyWorks Inspector — no proprietary lock-in.
Single-Click Reverse Engineering With EXModel
EXScan HX handles capture, alignment, and mesh editing; the EXModel bundle then enables single-click data import straight after a scan, so a captured mesh moves into professional CAD modeling without an export-and-reimport detour. For clinical and color-critical work, BlueStar Mapping handles photorealistic texture, and Geomagic Control X covers dimensional inspection.
Open Formats for Every Downstream Tool
The HX2 exports open mesh formats — STL, OBJ, PLY, and ASC — with full-color texture, so the data flows into reverse-engineering, inspection, art, and heritage pipelines alike. Geometry drops into Geomagic Design X for parametric reconstruction, EXModel for surfacing, and PolyWorks Inspector for dimensional comparison, fitting the CAD stack you already run.
Reverse Engineering. Automotive. Inspection. Art & Heritage.
One hybrid laser + LED handheld covers scan-to-CAD with reverse-engineering software, dimensional inspection, automotive restoration, and full-color art and heritage capture. For a current-generation handheld with built-in computing and tighter accuracy, see the EinScan Rigil.
EinScan HX2 vs. the Current EinScan Rigil
The HX2 is a previous-generation hybrid laser + LED handheld. Its successor in the Rev1 line-up is the current-generation EinScan Rigil — here is how they line up on the capabilities that decide a new purchase.
| Capability | EinScan HX2 (previous gen) | EinScan Rigil (current) |
|---|---|---|
| Status | Discontinued — legacy | Current model |
| Light source | Blue laser (13 crosses) + blue LED | Blue laser (25+25 crossed) + IR VCSEL |
| Accuracy | Up to 0.04 mm (laser) | Up to 0.04 mm · 0.04 + 0.06 mm/m |
| Scan speed | Up to 1,600,000 pts/s | Up to 16,000,000 pts/s (IR Rapid) |
| Onboard computing | None — PC software | 8-core · 32 GB RAM · 1 TB SSD |
| Built-in screen | None | 6.4″ 2K AMOLED touch |
| Color texture | Built-in color camera | 5 MP color camera |
| Best for | Shiny & black parts, full color | All-in-one handheld, machined parts + people |
Figures are from publicly available SHINING 3D manufacturer information and vary by configuration; provided by Rev1 Technologies for general orientation. The HX2 remains a capable hybrid laser + LED handheld for shiny, black, and full-color parts; buyers seeking a current-generation handheld with built-in computing, an on-board touchscreen, and much faster capture should consider the EinScan Rigil. Rev1 walks the cross-shop during application review.
