3D Metrology Conference - 3DMC
3DMC is a conference and exhibition dedicated to the application and development of 3D measurement technology for industrial, scientific and cultural purposes. After the successful start of the
series in Aachen in 2016 and 2017, the organizing committee is dedicated to open the
forthcoming third event to an even broader audience.
3DMC 2018 will be hosted in Hamburg.
3DMC aims at end users of 3D metrology systems, equipment and software suppliers, service providers, researchers and procurement and quality managers. These target audiences operate in sectors such as aerospace, automotive, power generation, marine, off-shore, built environment, cultural heritage and virtual reality. Users and developers from these diverse fields can share their differing experiences, values, and requirements while, at the same time, helping to drive the industry forward.
Typical conference themes include:
We welcome presentations of applications at all scales, from the reverse engineering and inspection of small parts to the as-built 3D modeling of entire process plants.
The conference also looks beyond its immediate technology boundaries and welcomes guest lectures on diverse subjects. Visit Hamburg this autumn to explore 3D metrology and benefit from the community.
Conference format:
We request presentations only, no papers. The presentations will cover both applications-oriented and research-oriented subjects and will be publicly available in electronic format after the event.

The conference location at the shore of River Elbe are among the most exclusive event venues in the City of Hamburg. Conference participants meet at the heart of Altona in a space covering 1,000 m² and offering a fantastic blend of top-quality facilities and panoramic views of Hamburg's harbor. The modern Kaispeicher was built in 1924 and completely renovated in 2009. It offers direct access to the river promenade and blends in perfectly with the surrounding historic clinker buildings.
Hamburg, the second largest city in Germany, lies on the estuary of the River Elbe. Its location makes it an important link between the sea and Germany's network of inland waterways and numerous islands. The city is best known for its famous harbour area, the Port of Hamburg. In addition to being a major transportation hub, Hamburg has become one of Europe's most important cultural and commercial centres, as well as a major tourist destination. Enjoy your stay in this fantastic city.
There is a wide variety of hotels in Hamburg that can provide suitable accommodations for all requirements.

The Laboratory for Machine Tools and Production Engineering WZL at the RWTH Aachen carries out research and consultancy projects both on a fundamental level and according to industry’s specific requirements, and develops innovative, practical solutions that safeguard business growth. The objective of handling the entire range of production technology issues under one roof results in a wide scope – from strategic innovation, production and quality management to control, machine, production and measuring technology.
PRS Technologie GmbH was founded in 2012, as a consultancy spin-off at RWTH Aachen University. Through its extensive network with RWTH Aachen University and Fraunhofer Society, PRS Technologie provides consultancy and capacity building services with the focus on transfer of technology and knowledge from academia to practice. PRS Technologie functions under two business units namely PRSTG International and PRSTG Solutions, while the former focuses on development of technology and education partnerships between Germany and the countries abroad, the latter provides consultancy and training services in Germany, as the home country.
The 3DMC Organsing Committee is formed by experts in the field of 3-dimensional metrology who come from industry, academia and national metrology institutes in order to ensure that the conference has an interdisciplinary character.
