(Konica Minolta: Ramsey, NJ) -- Konica Minolta Sensing Americas Inc. (KMSA), the worldwide leader in the industrial measurement of color, light, and shape, announces the addition of its new 3-D scanning and engineering services division to its existing 3-D noncontact-scanner business unit.

“This is a very exciting time for us as we launch this new 3-D services business,” says Jim Clark, KMSA 3-D business unit manager. “We see huge potential in offering this type of service to our customers. Many were not able to afford the purchase of hardware this past year due to economic conditions. We were continually asked if we could simply scan parts on a project by project basis.”

In a rapid response to better service these customers, KMSA has quickly invested and deployed this new division to address the needs of those looking for 3-D service solutions in the areas of reverse engineering, rapid prototyping, 3-D scanning, design and engineering, as well as finite element analysis.
