Portable 3D Scanners: Go!SCAN 3D

The arm-free handheld MetraSCAN 3D optical CMM scanning systems are the most accurate scanning and probing solutions on the market, whether in lab or on the shop floor. Combined with the HandyPROBE, this complete and powerful solution increases the reliability, speed and versatility of the measurement process, whether for metrology or large-scale reverse engineering applications. The MetraSCAN 3D scanners make it possible to easily and dynamically extend the measurement volume with no loss of accuracy. Compared to other 3D scanners on articulated arms, they allow total freedom of movement, which translates into increased productivity and quality.

The Go!SCAN 3D™ product line offers our easiest portable 3D scanning experience, providing fast and reliable measurements. With these handheld 3D scanners, you can even capture 3D data in full color. You need simplified, quick, and accurate 3D scanning? The Go!SCAN 3D™ were designed with you in mind. Through a very efficient process, these self-positioning systems can be used by anyone without requiring any prior experience or background, and provide visual guidance as you are scanning. Their innovative technology bypasses preparation steps and specific setups, provides a very fast measurement rate, and does not require manual data post-processing. Highly versatile, they can be used for a wide range of applications, helping professionals throughout the entire product development process.

Creaform develops, manufactures and sells portable 3D measurement technologies for industrial applications, including self-positioning 3D scanners, portable coordinate measuring machines (PCMMs), optical CMM 3D scanners, an optical coordinate measuring system for photogrammetry, and a dynamic tracking device.

Part of the MetraSCAN 3D line-up, the robot-mounted MetraSCAN-R optical CMM 3D scanning systems are fast and accurate scanning solutions designed for 3D automated inspection of parts on the production line and on the shop floor. In combination with industrial robots, the MetraSCAN-R series increases the reliability, speed and versatility of on-line inspection and quality control (QC) process. The MetraSCAN-R series of optical CMM 3D scanners stand as an innovative robotized solution that can be integrated into factory automation projects and guarantee optimal dimensional measurement accuracy and speed, which translates into increased productivity and product quality.

Creaform designs and manufactures innovative and efficient NDT solutions. Compared to traditional methods,our non contact 3D measurement solutions offer significantly shorter measurement time and help streamlining the testing and inspection process of applications. Pipecheck Corrosion Software Module Pipecheck’s pipeline corrosion software module offers very fast and reliable data processing that generates instant, on-site results. Data are output in a complete Excel report and show increased accuracy and repeatability compared to traditional measurements methods such as pit gauge, ultrasonic (UT) probes and single-line lasers. Pipecheck Mechanical Damage Software Module As its name states, this software module has been specifically developed for pipeline mechanical damage analysis. This module features numerous key functionalities that increase dent understanding and facilitate decision making. Instant results are generated on site and directly output in Excel format.

The HandySCAN 3D handheld scanners of new generation have been optimized to meet the needs of product development and engineering professionals on the lookout for the most effective and reliable way to acquire 3D measurements of physical objects. Creaform’s flagship metrology-grade scanners underwent a complete re-engineering, building on its core assets. They are now more portable and they are faster at delivering accurate and high resolution 3D scans while remaining overly simple to use. Yet, it is their true portability that has changed the rules and set a whole new trend in the 3D scanning market. HandySCAN 300: The HandySCAN 300 is the most reliable tool to reverse engineer and/or design. HandySCAN 700: The HandySCAN 700 offers increased accuracy and resolution. It is the most versatile 3D scanner on the market for inspection and demanding reverse engineering.

With more than 10,000 metrology services projects to its credit, Creaform has earned a reputation for effectiveness, quality and professionalism. Our experts provide metrology services worldwide 24/7, with quick turnarounds and under strict quality standards. The multidisciplinary Creaform team of experienced applications engineers and metrologists work very closely with our clients to get a clear understanding of their needs, and they come up with the most effective 3D measurement technologies and work methods. All systems used by Creaform are very easy to carry, so that Creaform can offer all services worldwide on site - even outside the measuring laboratories in difficult environments such as in production halls or on a ship: By mounting targets on the object to measure, it is dynamically referenced (TRUaccuracy Technology). The object can be moved at any time during the measurement. Slight shocks and vibrations do not affect the measuring result.

VXmodel is a post-treatment software that directly integrates into VXelements, Creaform’s 3D software platform, and allows the finalization of 3D scan data to use directly in any 3D printing or CAD software. VXmodel provides the simplest and fastest path from 3D scans to your computer-aided design or additive manufacturing workflow. A great addition to the Creaform 3D scanners, VXmodel is simple but powerful, including only the features necessary to complement your CAD software. You already have all the design and modeling capabilities in your software: VXmodel simply provides the tools you need for a quick and seamless integration into your scan-based design process.
