Abstract
This article discusses the creation of a 3D archive and physical copies of paper reliefs (estamages). A matrix of the estampage is fabricated by the combined use of 3D scanning technology and additive technologies which can then be used for the documentation and conservation of the original estampage. In order to digitize the relief, an optical 3D scanner based on structured light was used and the processing of the 3D model is discussed in detail. Scanning data is uploaded into the microprocessor of a 3D laser printer using stereolithography technology which then creates a conservation matrix. The accuracy of relief reproduction is assessed by comparing its 3D model with 3D models of replicas obtained with the help of 3D printers. The experimental research showed that it is possible to create 3D archives and reproduction of reliefs. This approach is fundamentally new in the practice of museums and archives.
Zusammenfassung
Anwendung von 3D Scans für die Dokumentation von Papierreliefs und die Herstellung von Repliken
In diesem Beitrag wird beschrieben, wie 3D Scans von Papierreliefs erstellt werden können. Zunächst wird eine Matrix des Reliefs durch eine Kombination von 3D Scanning Technologie und additiven Technologien erzeugt. Mittels dieser Matrix kann das Relief dokumentiert werden sowie eine Replik angefertigt werden, die in der Folge für die Restaurierung und Präsentation der Papierreliefs eingesetzt werden kann. Um das Relief zu digitalisieren, wurde ein optischer 3D Scanner, der auf strukturiertem Licht basiert, verwendet. Die Scan-Daten wurden danach in den Mikroprozessor eines Laserdruckers geladen, der auf Stereolithografie basiert und eine Replik erzeugt. Die Genauigkeit dieser Replik wurde durch einen Vergleich des 3D Modells des Originals mit einem 3D Modell der Replik bestimmt. In dieser experimentellen Studie konnte gezeigt werden, dass es möglich ist, 3D Archive sowie genaue Repliken zu erzeugen. Diese Technik eröffnet neue Möglichkeiten für Museen und Archive im Umgang mit dreidimensionalen Papierobjekten.
Résummé
Application de la numérisation 3D et technologies additives pour la documentation et la création de copies physiques d’estampages
Cet article a pour sujet la création d’une archive 3D et de copies physiques d’inscriptions.
Une méthode originale de restauration d’inscriptions est présentée, basée sur la création d’une matrice spéciale obtenue par combinaison d’une technologie numérique 3D et de méthodes additives. Pour numériser une inscription, un scanner optique 3D a été utilisé, dont le fonctionnement est basé sur l’emploi de lumière structurée. Nous traiterons en détail la technique du traitement par ordinateur du modèle 3D obtenu par numérisation. Il est nécessaire de le charger dans le microprocesseur d’une imprimante 3D. Pour créer une réplique des inscriptions et une matrice réparatrice, des imprimantes laser 3D ont été utilisées, dont le principe est basé sur la technique stéréolithographe laser. La précision de la reproduction des inscriptions est évaluée par comparaison des modèles 3D avec des modèles 3D de répliques obtenues avec des imprimantes 3D. Cette recherche expérimentale a prouvé la possibilité de créer des archives 3D et de reproductions d’inscriptions. L’approche proposée de préservation de ce type de documents historiques et culturels est fondamentalement nouvelle dans la pratique d’un musée national et du travail archivistique.
