Macroscopic Solutions Support answer
This staff-authored guidance is generalized. Project-specific and private details should be handled through direct support.
A pilot is useful when the achievable detail, glare control, depth, throughput, 3D reconstruction, or handling method is uncertain. Send a representative sample with dimensions, fragility, desired result, and delivery requirements through the private project channel. The finished test can serve as a one-time imaging service or define the equipment and workflow needed for repeatable in-house work.
