Non-Contact Inspection

Comprehensive scanning for inspection

Fragile, complex, and free-form surfaces can be captured as a dense and detailed 3D point cloud by the FARO® ScanArm® and Cobalt Array Imager, allowing users to perform non-contact, 3D inspections with ease.

3D scanning at your fingertips

FARO’s ScanArm allows for rapid scanning where conventional contact inspection methods are not feasible or practical. Data is captured in high definition and detailed 3D point clouds. Combing the ScanArm with the integrated 8-Axis rotary scanning platform further speeds up the scanning process and decreases scan time up to 40%, while maintaining accuracy.

Non-Contact_Inspection_Easy

Easily measure complex shapes

Non-contact 3D scanning from FARO can digitize features such as flush and gap that are difficult to inspect with contact methods. Complex shapes and difficult-to-access parts can now be easily inspected and verified accurately. Capture seamless information required for precise measurement and accurate inspection of parts on the shop floor.

FARO ScanArm®

FARO provides a competitive all-in-one metrology solution with the ScanArm

The FARO ScanArm combines all of the advantages of the Quantum line of FaroArms – including the world’s only 8-Axis portable metrology arm solution – with the FAROBlu or Prizm Color handheld laser scanner to deliver unparalleled non-contact measurement capabilities. Unlike other scanning systems, the ScanArm’s hard probe and the Laser Line Probe can digitize interchangeably without having to remove either component. Users can accurately measure prismatic features with the hard probe, then laser scan sections requiring larger volumes of data — all in one simple tool.
