Exact Metrology has introduced the Hexagon RS6 laser scanner, which it says can scan up to 1.2 million points/second with a scan rate of 300 Hz. The RS6 also has a wider laser stripe of 150 mm at mid-range and a visual guide that can provide real time feedback for stand-off distance.
According to the company, the laser scanner can scan a molded carbon fiber component without any reduction in quality or productivity, and allows users to scan 99% of parts without touching the scanner exposure. With repeatable mounting, the scanner can be removed if necessary and replaced without need for calibration.
