Handyscan 3D Scanner - Benefits
The Handyscan 3D line-up is a line of unique laser scanning systems. Compared to traditional scanners, these revolutionary scanners significantly streamline many engineering tasks.
Top 7 reasons to choose the Handyscan 3D line-up of products
Self-positioning
- Innovative positioning targets and easy application (reflective self-adhesive material).
- No external tracking devices needed to determine scanner's position in 3D space (no need for CMM, portable arms, laser trackers, etc.).
- No tripods needed. The scanner is moved about about while it is scanning.
- No need for a rotary table.
- Complete freedom of movement because of self-positioning capability.
- Virtually no limitations on scan orientation or accessibility in confined spaces.
Versatility
- Easily scan small items and large objects (the size of a car and even larger).
- Works in confined spaces as the standoff distance required to scan is only about 30cm.
- Handles complicated 3D shapes better than most scanners.
- Able to operate using a dedicated battery pack if no electrical supply available.
- Ability to work with some photogrammetry systems.
User friendly
- Using the Handyscan 3D scanners is as easy as it can get.
- Shortest learning curve for laser scanners in any category
- Easy to set up and scan. Users are up and ready to start scanning in under 2 minutes.
Accuracy
- The Handyscan 3D scanners yield some of the best data quality available in laser scanning technologies
Low cost
- Low scanner and scan setup costs.
- Low investment, high ROI, and low maintenance costs.
- Short learning curve.
Mobility
- Handyscan 3D scanners come in a protective and compact carrying case
- Easy to move around, in-house or onsite
- Great for service jobs
Ergonomics
- The Handyscan 3D scanners are lightweight and ergonomic.
- They allow use on long periods of time without any discomfort.
