Swivel Head

Scan
Any Surface

The iScan is capable of scanning highly reflective and high contrast surface areas.

The versatility of iScan3D makes large-scale scanning quick and simple.

Blue Crossed-Lines
Scanner

Crossed laser lines provide the ability to scan a surface in any direction with ease and flexibility.

Blue lasers and high-resolution camera provide dense point cloud with fine details of the features in real-time.

Tactile
Probing

Probe to automatically identify probe length and tip size of the stylus and eliminate user probe selection during measurements. A variety of probe styli (up to 500mm supported) to suit every application provide the ability to probe profound features.

SPATIAL LENGTH UNCERTAINTY (SLU)

SLU is the deviation between a length measured with the iScanTM (in a static orientation) its nominal value.**

SPATIAL RADIUS UNCERTAINTY (RU)

RU is the deviation between a measured sphere’s radius and its nominal value.**

MEASUREMENT UNIT SPECIFICATION

SLU and RU are further specified as a function of the distance between the laser tracker and the measured surface.

*These values represent the Maximum Permissible Error(MPE) between a verified Scale Bar and the expected performance of the instrument.

*Nominal Values are established by the Laser Tracker.
