3D Metrology is a field of scientific study focused on precise three-dimensional measurements. It involves capturing and analyzing the geometry of objects in three dimensions, typically using technologies like 3D scanners. These measurements are crucial for applications in manufacturing, quality control, and reverse engineering.
ZEISS ScanCobot is a mobile measuring station with a collaborative robot, motorized rotation table and powerful software. The system is especially suited for the efficient quality control of small and medium-sized parts made of plastic, metal or cast iron. It can be used during the pre-production phase, such as design and prototyping, as well as during the market launch.
Applications
1. 3D model creation:
The captured data is used to create a digital 3D model of the object, which can be analyzed, measured, and compared to other models.2. Quality control and inspection:
3D metrology plays a vital role in ensuring the quality of manufactured parts by comparing the scanned object to a CAD model or other standards.3. Reverse engineering:
3D metrology can be used to create a digital representation of an existing object, allowing for its design to be analyzed or reproduced.
