Speed
The MetraSCAN 3D-R enables the measurement of hundreds of parts per day. Perfect for at-line inspection in mass production, it brings quality control as close to the part as possible. From easy integration to quick and simple installation, the MetraSCAN 3D-R helps you speed up your automated quality control processes—and accelerate your time to market.
High measurement rate
Up to 3,000,000 measurements/second for short cycle times
Fast measurement speed
Regardless of surfaces, trims, and geometric features
High-density scanning area
69 laser lines
Accuracy and resolution
Due to its metrology-grade accuracy, repeatability, and resolution, the MetraSCAN 3D-R delivers high-quality results, whether on surfaces, trims or geometric features. The MetraSCAN 3D-R is free from rigid measurement setups, making it a 3D scanner engineered for industrial automation in shop-floor conditions. Thanks to the C‑Track optical tracker that enables dynamic referencing, both the 3D scanner and the part can move during inspection—maintaining part alignment as well as measurement accuracy and reliability.
Shop-floor accuracy with dynamic referencing
0.025 mm (0.0009 in) in shop-floor conditions, regardless of instabilities, vibrations, and thermal variations
Reliable acceptance tests
Based on VDI/VDE 2634 Part 3 standard
Based on ISO 10360 standard
ISO/IEC 17025: 2017 accredited laboratory
Volumetric accuracy
0.078 mm (0.0031 in)
High resolution
0.015 mm (0.0006 in)
Versatility
Combining the power of optical and blue laser technologies, the MetraSCAN 3D-R has the capability to generate highly efficient 3D scans on shiny surfaces or on objects with variations in reflectivity as well as measure various part sizes and different surface geometries. The MetraSCAN 3D-R is available as a custom solution with an industrial robot or as a completely turnkey measuring solution with Creaform's CUBE-R.
Blue laser technology
Ideal for shiny and reflective surfaces
Configurable and customizable portfolio
16 configurations
Large part-size range
Perfect for various part sizes and geometries
Custom integration possible
Operational simplicity
Due to its operational simplicity, compatibility with metrology software, and off-line programming, the MetraSCAN 3D-R is accessible to all, regardless of users' level of expertise or experience. The user interface makes it simple for operators, who are non-experts in robotics or metrology, to measure parts regardless of size, shape, or complexity. Once the measurements are completed, quality control engineers can focus on analyzing and reviewing the results, which are high added-value tasks.
Accessibility to shop-floor operators
No expertise in robotics nor metrology required
Supported robots
Compatible with industrial and collaborative robots
Software independence
