3DMakerpro: handheld 3D scanners for makers, from the Seal Lite to Turtle

3DMakerpro makes handheld 3D scanners: devices that capture a real object as a 3D model you can edit, measure or send to a 3D printer. The brand is aimed at makers, 3D-printing hobbyists, designers, teachers and small workshops who want detailed scans without paying industrial prices. Behind it is Shenzhen Jimuyida Technology, founded in 2015.

Two practical points before you start on the UK storefront. Prices are shown in US dollars, so pay with a card without foreign transaction fees. Delivery to the UK comes from the brand's German or Chinese warehouse and costs £9.99, or nothing on orders over £120, which covers every scanner in the range.

It helps to know what you want to scan before you choose. Small, shiny or very detailed objects need a scanner with fine accuracy and a small capture area, while furniture, car parts or people need a wider capture range. Colour capture matters if you want a textured model rather than just the shape. The comparison table on 3DMakerpro's homepage lists accuracy, resolution, capture range and light source for each scanner, so it's worth reading those side by side before you buy. Its LiDAR scanners, Raven and Eagle, are a different category, designed for rooms, buildings and outdoor spaces rather than objects.

What's worth a look

Six scanners from across the range, with the prices shown on the UK storefront today:

The easiest way to choose is by object size. The Seal and Seal Lite are built for small, detailed items such as jewellery, miniatures and coins, with the Seal Lite the cheapest way in at $233 (was $359). The Moose and Moose Lite handle mid-sized objects, and the Fox is pitched as a stylish, beginner-friendly medium-format scanner at $212. The Turtle is the most flexible of the six: its magnetic S, M and L modules swap over so one scanner can tackle small and large jobs, at $594.15 (was $699).

Current offers

• Most scanners on the UK storefront show a reduced price against the original, for example Turtle at $594.15 (was $699) and Moose at $524 (was $699).
• Free UK delivery on orders over £120; below that, shipping is a flat £9.99.

How to save more

• Use the store's 14-day price protection if the price of your scanner drops shortly after you buy.
• Check whether you need extras before checking out: turntables, a smart grip and scanning spray are sold separately and are easier to add to one order.
• The 7-day no-reason return window is short, so test your scanner as soon as it arrives.
