8tree is a company based in Konstanz and the Los Angeles area, which develops application-specific structured-light 3D scanners for surface inspection.[1]
8tree was founded in 2012. Its products are used in aerospace manufacturing, aviation maintenance and wind turbine blade manufacturing industries.[2][3] The company's main product for the aviation maintenance industry, Dentcheck, was first sold in 2015, and was certified in 2016, by Airbus (also recognized by Boeing, Bombardier and Embraer).[4][5][6] According to Lufthansa Technik which tested Dentcheck in their Innovation Bay before implementing it in all of their Base Maintenance facilities, the technology saves them about 80% in time and cost.[7][8] A smaller fuselage inspection tool was introduced in 2023.[9]
Boeing uses the 8tree dentCHECK scanner at their Boeing 787 final assembly line.[10][11]
The German Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing explains that the underlying 3D scanning technology used in 8tree products, stripe-light scanning is commonly used throughout the industry but has limitations since it can only scan surfaces and cannot look inside materials.[1][12]
