Easy to Use

Every engineering and design team needs to be fast and efficient. It is therefore very important to have tools that are easy to learn and use and that can deliver fast, reliable results.

Using the ZScanner^® is Easy

Engineers, industrial designers, and artists can largely benefit from using the ZScanner 700 laser scanner in their design processes. This state-of-the-art scanner works simply and easily with regular computers.

Short Learning Curve

The ZScanner is easy to use yet extremely powerful. It comes with easy-to-learn, intuitive ZScan software, which offers users a wide array of functionalities. With traditional laser scanning technologies, operators must struggle with bulky and complex measuring arms. Not so with the ZScanner, as it does not use these technologies to function or position itself in reference to the part. Measuring arms can also collect unreliable data when fully extended or if internal encoders are twisted at different angles.

How Does it Work?

While the ZScanner is scanning, a real-time surface reconstruction of the object is shown on the computer screen. This feature allows the user to see what section of the part is being scanned and which areas need more detail. This feature is not available with traditional scanners, which only generate a fuzzy point cloud. With the ZScanner, it is also possible to make partial scans, stop to visualize the scanned part on the computer, and seamlessly resume scanning.

Easy to Set Up and Scan

The ZScanner is a self-positioning device that almost instantly references itself in relation to the part or object. Learn more about its self-positioning features.
