Creaform, an AMETEK business, has upgraded the specifications of its HandySCAN 3D|Max Series. The automated and portable 3D measurement solutions provider has brought improvements to volumetric accuracy for large parts, enhanced measurement feedback, and software upgrades, especially regarding hardware performance.

With the new updates, the HandySCAN 3D|Max family can offer accredited volumetric accuracy of up to 0.075mm + 0.010mm/m. This is a minimum increase of 30% in accuracy relating to a 5m part. There are also improvements to quality assurance with the addition of the new target acquisition mode, better target quality indicators, and an added target deviation table.

“With the HandySCAN 3D|MAX Series, Creaform continues to lead the way in portable, high-precision 3D scanning,” said Olivier Plamondon, Product Manager at Creaform. “There’s simply no other product on the market that offers such a high level of accuracy and volumetric precision for large parts.”

Key features of the HandySCAN 3D|Max product family:

  • Improved accuracy of up to 0.075mm + 0.010mm/m, measuring features with smaller tolerances with greater precision.
  • Scan areas up to 2.0m x 2.4m.
  • Part size ranges from 1m to 15m.
  • Enhanced ease of use with better user experience for non-experts.
  • Measures parts regardless of shape, size, finish, or complexity.
  • Provides feedback on target deviation, improving reliability levels.
  • Allows for a large depth of field from 0.3m to 2.5m.
  • ISO 17025 certified.

The HandySCAN 3D|Max Series works by obtaining metrology-grade measurements of large and complex parts within minutes. Once complete, highly accurate 3D scans are created without surface preparation. Creaform believes the solution is ideal for companies within diverse industries like mining, transport, energy, and heavy industries. Users may experience benefits including a reduction in time and resources wasted, improved quality assurance, quicker and more accurate measurements, and an accelerated time-to-market.
