Non-contact 3D digitizer suitable for industrial applications requiring high accuracy and reliability
The Visionary Eye
Creating the Future Style of Manufacturing
NEW
KONICA MINOLTA
Do you make 2D drawings simply to
check your 3D model?
How reliable is your surface profile
evaluation, such as checking of
distortion in a free-form surface?
Is the evaluation of wall thickness or
machining stock inspection for cast
parts sucient?
Do you spend too much time
correcting the dies for press parts?
Are the bosses, ribs and holes of
plastic parts formed in accordance
with the original design?
Is inspection totally dependent on
skilled workers?
Q
■ Principal applications and measurement targets
Quality inspection (conrmation and verication of whether parts are
manufactured to specications) and reverse engineering (quantication
of quality and capability of parts, etc.) from development to
prototyping phases
tCast and other formed materials
tPressed parts
