Exact Metrology, a division of In-Place Machining Company and a 3D metrology service provider, now offers the newest version of its Artec Micro scanner. This desktop 3D scanner is designed to deliver scans in one click.
With a 2-year warranty, features of the Artec Micro include up to 10 microns accuracy and works for quality testing and reverse engineering. It produces metrology-grade scans suitable for quality control, while removing the need for targets on the scanned object.
Artec Micro’s advanced twin colour cameras and blue LED lights are synchronised with the scanner’s dual-axis rotation system to create a digital copy of your object with a minimum of frames captured. In addition, the Smart Scanning mode captures every surface of the object in the least amount of time, using an ideal number of frames. A minimum amount of training is required with Micro, as the scanner is user-friendly and ready to set up quickly. The scanner integrates with Artec Studio for real-time digital capture.
The Micro can “see” well below the human visibility threshold of 40 microns and its 3D measurements are said to be among the best in today’s cutting edge scanners. Reverse engineering is completed with Artec Micro’s precise 3D measurement to digitally fit together legacy parts with those customers create, capturing the smallest details.
In minutes, Artec Micro transforms intricate items into CAD/CAM data for design, modification, 3D printing and casting. As a result, this can save hours of time in the design and production of complex pieces. The scanner also creates highly-detailed 3D models.
