Optical Coordinate Measuring Machine 3D Scanner: MetraSCAN Optical CMM 3D Scanner - Creaform

http://www.creaform3d.com/en/metrascan/default.aspx - The arm-free handheld MetraSCAN 3D scanning system and the C-Track 780 dual-camera sensor form a unique duo that generates the most accurate measurements in the lab and on the shop floor. Combined with the HandyPROBE, this complete and powerful inspection solution increases the reliability, speed and versatility of the measurement process.

Compared with other 3D scanners on articulated arms, the MetraSCAN optical 3D scanning system allows total freedom of movement for significantly increased productivity and quality!

Features and Benefits of the Arm-free Handheld MetraSCAN Scanning System

The Most Accurate Measurement Solution. Creaform's TRUaccuracy technology ensures highly-accurate measurements, regardless of the measurement environment (instability, vibrations, thermal variation, etc.) or operator skills.

- With the dynamic referencing mode of the C-Track, the coordinate system can be literally "locked" onto the part(s) being measured, thus maintaining part alignment during the entire scanning process.
- With the automatic alignment function, manual operation is no longer needed during the alignment phase and root cause errors are drastically reduced.
- With the fast user calibration process using a certified gauge, the MetraSCAN delivers constant accuracy during its entire life cycle.
- With the continuous monitoring of parameters (temperature, accuracy, etc.), constant accuracy is ensured during the entire useful life of products.

Complete and Powerful Inspection Solution. Allows geometrical and freeform inspection on the same part with the same system. The automatic alignment capability with optical reflectors allows to scan and probe many identical parts in rapid succession.

Faster and Easier Measurement. Handheld and armless. Easy-to-learn, intuitive system with a very short learning curve. Installation in less than five minutes. Allows the measurement of parts in production without having to align every part.

Greater, Extendable Measurement Volume. Compared with 3D scanners on articulated arms, the MetraSCAN allows a greater basic measurement volume. In addition, this volume can be easily and dynamically extended with no loss of accuracy and without any conventional leapfrog or additional alignment set-up involved. No need for the operator to re-align data after moving the part or the C-Track.

Truly Portable Device. The 100% portability of the MetraSCAN makes it possible to inspect or reverse engineer parts, sub-units or complex assemblies with unequalled precision, mobility and flexibility - no matter where (lab, factory, off-site, etc.).

Excellent ROI. Yields considerable productivity and operating profits in industrial coordinate measurement and control.
