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 [...]

This blog post will delve into the Measure Menu of Geomagic’s Control X software. While most users of Control X are interested in producing color maps, whisker plots, dimension checks, and GD&T analyses of the scan as compared to the nominal CAD model, it is important to note that there are several “mesh-only” functions for measuring a scan model that do not require a nominal CAD model.
