New Laser Scanner Enhanced by Portability
January 11, 2005 |Estimated reading time: Less than a minute
SOUTHLAKE, Texas — ModelMaker Z series laser scanner from NVision Inc. can be battery-powered for up to two hours of remote operation, and can also be controlled by a laptop computer for a fully portable system.
The three sensors that make up the ModelMaker Z range capture over 23,000 points per second and 35-, 70- and 140-mm available stripe widths ensure a sensor for every application. ModelMaker software allows data capture with the laser or hard probe, eliminating sensor removal.
The ModelMaker System comprises a portable CMM, to which a 3-D laser sensor is attached, as well as a PC and ModelMaker Software that extracts, displays, manipulates and exports the data. It is fully compatible with all industry-standard portable CMMs. Once attached to the portable CMM, the scanner can be moved about the object, enabling the user to rapidly capture data. Real-time rendering of the data gives the user immediate feedback. Intuitive software allows full-model editing, polygon reduction and data output to all standard 3-D CAD and inspection packages.
