Products & services
FARO® Quantum Max ScanArms
Sometimes a part or tool is so complex, you can’t use contact probes to capture all of its measurements. But lasers do the job with exceptional speed and accuracy. In these cases, leading manufacturers rely on FARO Quantum Max ScanArms, which combine the measurement capabilities of a Quantum Max FaroArm® portable coordinate measuring machine (CMM) with the non-contact functionality of a laser line probe. The Quantum Max also offers a variety of LLPs that optimize accuracy, speed or a blend of both, depending on project need. Whichever LLP you choose, 3D ScanArms capture precise measurements in nearly any environment, from the factory floor to the field.
FARO® Vantage Laser Trackers
FARO® Vantage Laser Trackers Fast, accurate measurements for large-scale applications Measuring large parts, molds, assemblies and machines used to be a challenging, time-consuming process and often had to be performed in a special inspection area. Portable FARO Vantage Laser Trackers make on-site measurement easy and fast, reducing inspection cycle times by up to 75%. They measure 3D coordinates by tracking a target that the user moves from one point to another on the object being measured. In seconds, these measurements can be compared against nominal CAD data so teams can either make informed adjustments or move forward with confidence. New to the VantageS6 Max and VantageE6 Max family of Laser Trackers is more accurate 6DoF probing, which helps speed up inspections and reduce the number of device moves. With the higher accuracy of the Vantage Max, users can probe more points beyond the line of sight and without tooling changes, resulting in a productivity improvement of 20% compared to lower accuracy probes.
Gage Max FaroArm®
Performing inspections with traditional hand tools is time-consuming and creates clutter on the shop floor. The Gage Max FaroArm transforms the process, allowing machine shops and small production lines to meet even the most demanding quality specifications with one efficient, sleek, rugged coordinate measuring machine (CMM). The Gage Max FaroArm portable CMM sets up in seconds and delivers precision measurements for quick comparison against nominal CAD data.
FARO ScanArm DTEX
DTEX is an image processing algorithm for FARO Laser Line Probes (LLP) that significantly enhances scanning capabilities on challenging surfaces like dark, shiny, or high-contrast parts. It accelerates data acquisition by up to 60% without sacrificing accuracy, eliminating the need to manually adjust probe settings.
