The challenge in the St. Michael project was creating the 3-D scan. The statue is approximately six feet tall and had to be scanned in place – in the lobby of the hospital. The statue could not be touched, sprayed, nor have any adhesive targets stuck to it. With these restrictions, there were very few equipment options available that could provide the information needed. (read more)

Inventor of touch-trigger probing, Renishaw again revolutionizes part inspection, creating a new system of breakthrough technologies that bring ultra-high-speed scanning to coordinate measuring machines (CMMs). New Renscan5 motion control software and infinite positioning REVO measuring head enable part inspection at speeds up to 500 mm/sec for more data points on faster cycle times. (read more)

Ideal for CMM (coordinate measuring machine) performance upgrade, Renishaw's UCC Universal Controllers remove performance barriers and data exchange limitations, leading a revolution to high-speed scanning and open metrology. (read more)

Creaform, the developer and manufacturer of the Handyscan 3D™ line-up of laser scanners, has lauchned on September 14^th, 2007 the HSM, a data acquisition software that allows CATIA users to scan 3D objects directly into CATIA V5. (read more)

The MagScan 50 is a sophisticated addition to the MagScan family, aimed at the permanent magnet and small magnetic assembly industry. By offering an enhanced scanning resolution and field sensitivity, the MagScan 50 is capable of mapping the magnetic field around a component with great accuracy. (read more)

The CSS-300 inspection system and Spec.Check™ software significantly reduces the time and expense currently spent in digitizing, measuring and qualifying first article parts from single and multi-cavity tools. This system will provide complete measured results, often the same day instead of the weeks that other processes currently require. (read more)

The high speed CHRocodile X is perfect for the topographic evaluation of large areas. Xenon technology enables measurement speeds up to 14 times faster when compared to CHR 150 E. The means a maximum scanning rate of 14 kHz on virtually all material surfaces! (read more)

The Keyence VK-9700 offers advantages over SEMs, roughness meters and optical microscopes for observation as well as shape/surface analysis. Specimen cutting/processing is not required, the depth of field is large and 3D measurement is possible. Pre-processing, such as sputter-coating, is unnecessary. Large specimens can be examined and profile measurement can be performed. (read more)
