MetraSCAN Optical CMM 3D Scanner

CREAFORM

METRASCAN OPTICAL CMM 3D SCANNER

The most flexible portable 3D measurement solution engineered for shop floor conditions

With its extendable measuring volume, high speed, shop-floor accuracy and impressive capabilities on challenging materials, the MetraSCAN optical CMM 3D scanner represents the most complete and dynamic metrology-grade 3D scanner on the market.

The Most Dynamic Portable Metrology Solution

With the new MetraSCAN 3D scanner, unexpected costs as well as production and approval delays are a thing of the past. Easily handle reverse engineering and inspection of tools, jigs, fixtures, assemblies or even final products from 1 to 3.5 m (3.3 to 11.5 ft.) with an accuracy of up to 0.064 mm (0.0025 in.).

Perfect for any environment, including the shop floor, the MetraSCAN 3D scanner will ensure that your quality control teams have a streamlined process that ensures parts meet even the most stringent requirements.

Key Features

TruAccuracy

  • Metrology-grade measurements: accuracy of up to 0.030 mm [0.0012 in], resolution of up to 0.050 mm [0.002 in], high repeatability and traceable certificate
  • Dynamic Referencing: optical reflectors are used to create a reference system that locks to the part giving users the ability to move the object any way they want during the measurement process
  • Volumetric accuracy of 0.064 mm [0.0025 in]
  • Accurate measurement of parts ranging from 0.2 to 10 meters [0.7 to 33 ft] in size
  • No decrease in accuracy over time with an easy-to-perform field calibration procedure

TruSimplicity

  • No rigid setup required as both the part and system can be moved freely at any time during measurement
  • Versatile 3D scanning: scan any type of colour and material- black, multicoloured & shiny surfaces
  • Greater and easily extendable measurement volume
  • Automatic alignment: optical reflectors allows for repetitive inspections without re-alignment
  • Optional probing capabilities by adding the HandyPROBE Next
  • Multi-function buttons for easier interaction with the software
  • Short learning curve and intuitive operation

TruPortability

  • Optimized for use on the shop floor
  • Lightweight: weighs under 1.38 kg [3 lbs]
  • Portable CMM: system can be easily brought to the part
  • Arm-free optical scanning system

Speed

  • Fastest 3D Scanner on the market (12 times faster than the previous generation
  • Highest measurement rate among all laser scanners;480,000 measurements/s
  • Incredibly fast workflow with automatic mesh output and ready-to-use files right as you complete aquisition
  • Quick and easy setup anywhere in your facility
