With 15 blue laser crosses, four times more resolution, increased scanning speed, no warm-up time and ISO 17025 accredited factory calibration, the latest MetraSCAN 3D is the ideal 3D scanner for demanding quality control applications.
Creaform has announced the release of the latest version of the MetraSCAN 3D line-up, the company’s advanced optical CMM scanner designed specifically to perform metrology-grade 3D measurements and inspections — right on the production floor. As the fastest and most accurate portable optical CMM scanner, the MetraSCAN BLACK can be seamlessly integrated in any quality control, quality assurance, inspection, maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO), or reverse engineering workflow and operated by users of any skill level in any type of environment.
The MetraSCAN BLACK dimensional metrology system has been developed to measure complex parts and assemblies from an array of industries such as automotive, aeronautics, power generation, heavy industry, and processes such as metal casting, metal forging, sheet metal, plastic injection and composites. Features include:
- 4X faster: Featuring 15 blue laser crosses for a larger scanning area that takes up to 1,800,000 measurements per second, and live meshing ultimately cutting down the time between acquisition and workable files.
- 4X resolution: MetraSCAN BLACK features a measurement resolution of 0.025mm to generate detailed scans of any object.
- More accurate and traceable measurements: High accuracy of 0.025mm, based on the VDI/VDE 2634-3 standard and tested in a ISO17025-accredited laboratory, ensures reliability and traceability to international standards.
- Shop floor accuracy: The MetraSCAN BLACK features unique, patented dynamic referencing that compensates for surroundings instabilities.
- Maximum versatility: Masters complex, shiny and highly detailed parts
- No warm-up time: Operators can be up-and-running in minutes.
- Touch probing capability: When paired with the HandyPROBE, the MetraSCAN BLACK lets users harness the power of both 3D scanning and probing for a complete, streamlined inspection process.
- Available in BLACK and BLACK|Elite: Customers can choose from two models based on their needs: speed, part complexity, accuracy, and so on.
“Today’s manufacturers are facing tremendous challenges. They need to rely on innovative 3D measurement technologies, like the MetraSCAN 3D, to refine their product development and quality control processes,” explained Guillaume Bull, Product Manager at Creaform. “This new version of the MetraSCAN 3D takes dimensional measurement speed, accuracy and versatility to a whole new level. We believe manufacturers will appreciate its performance within their workflows.”
The MetraSCAN 3D is available now from Hi-Tech Metrology in Australia.
