Creating Multiple Section Planes in a Single Command using Control X

By |2023-08-15T08:28:46-04:00May 31st, 2023|Categories: 3D Scanning|0 Comments

In this blog post, we are going to demonstrate the creation of multiple section planes in a single 2D Section command using Control X. In a recent blog post, we created two planes where one passed through the center points of two holes and the second was a linear distance offset, away from the first. Now, we are going to explain how to create a new plane that is parallel to Section A-A where we [...]

Freescan Combo 3D Scanner – New Kid on the Block

By |2023-05-02T09:22:58-04:00May 2nd, 2023|Categories: 3D Scanning, Inspection|0 Comments

The Freescan Combo 3D Scanner is a multifunctional, hybrid light source, metrology-grade scanner. The tiny footprint makes scanning of tight quarters much more accessible than with traditional handheld scanners. By having four (4) working modes, the Combo is perhaps the most versatile, handheld scanner, on the market. In Laser mode, it offers multiple laser scanning options; multi-laser scanning (26 crossing lasers), single laser line scanning (for deep holes) fine line scanning (for very high resolution) and [...]
