Artec Metrology Kit: Entry Version

Artec Metrology Kit: Entry Version

Optical Coordinate Measuring System For Inspection And Engineering: Up To 4 Micron Accuracy

The Artec Metrology Kit comes in two versions. The Entry version is designed for less demanding engineering use cases, while the Professional version provides higher accuracy and is designed to make photogrammetry in more challenging environments easier.The Artec Metrology Kit (Entry version) is a 3D optical coordinate measuring system for high-precision industrial applications (deformation analysis, testing, and inspection). The Metrology Kit can operate as a standalone optical measurement solution, or as a referencing tool for even higher 3D scanning accuracy over distance. Using the Metrology Kit plugin, you get the entire 3D scanning + photogrammetry workflow right inside Artec Studio. This 3D metrology solution is flexible enough to integrate into your workflow, delivers perfect results both in your workshop and outdoors, and is compatible with major software like Control X and PolyWorks

Features

• DAkkS-certified 6DoF optical measurement: Complete optical coordinate measuring system with an accuracy of up to 4 microns. The camera resolution of 20 megapixels.
• Use it anywhere: The Kit fits in a rugged, portable case, and with dynamic referencing, you can capture objects in motion – perfect on sites where it’s impractical to use traditional measuring machines and other 3D measurement tools.
• Compatible with different software: The Artec Metrology Kit is compatible with industry-leading software solutions like Geomagic Control X, PolyWorks, and many more.

How It Works

• Object preparation: Place targets, reference crosses, and scale bars on surfaces around the object to ensure they do not move relative to the object throughout the capture process.
• Capture: Systematically take pictures at different heights, creating a kind of dome around the object with the camera positions. Capture each target at least 6 times, and the reference cross from four perpendicular angles.
• Processing: Import the images into Artec Studio, with the Metrology Kit plugin installed, or your favorite photogrammetry software, to generate a target cloud.
• Reporting: Use the resultant point cloud for deformation analysis, flatness inspection, general dimensions measurement, or your own specific engineering use case.
