Blue light 3D scanner for small to medium-sized objects

By Leslie Langnau | March 21, 2022

Share

CAPTURE 3D, a provider of innovative 3D measurement solutions and the official U.S. partner for GOM GmbH, a ZEISS company, announced GOM Scan 1— an affordable, precise blue light 3D scanner with mesh editing capabilities to accurately digitize physical objects into the 3D world. The scanner is affordable and provides accessibility to the leading GOM blue light 3D scanning technology used by top manufacturers worldwide.

The scanner’s price point allows more people to experience the benefits of 3D digitalization. It is suitable for serious hobbyists or industrial engineers.

GOM Scan 1 can be used to create a digital file of an object for 3D printing, reverse engineering, manufacturing, quality control, virtual display and 3D modeling, research and education, art and design, and healthcare. GOM Scan 1 offers GOM Inspect 3D inspection software to quickly capture, visualize and analyze 3D measurement data within the same workflow.

GOM Inspect delivers a comprehensive 3D measurement experience. For example, mesh editing software functions allow users to smooth, thin and refine polygon meshes, fill holes and extract curvature lines, resulting in accurate meshes. The smart polygonization software feature creates a highly detailed mesh while keeping its size easy to handle by importing and aligning CAD and mesh files to create surface comparisons and dimensional inspections and generate reports. These meshes can be saved in many standard formats, including STL, G3D, and POL.

GOM Scan 1 joins CAPTURE 3D’s collection of non-contact blue light 3D scanners that use GOM’s proprietary fringe projection technology to capture detailed full-field data with narrowband blue light recorded by two cameras that work based on GOM’s stereo camera principle. The light source enables short measuring times and filters out interfering ambient light during data acquisition. This approach allows the sensor to recognize and compensate for changing ambient conditions. At the same time, its software continuously monitors the calibration status, transformation accuracy, environmental changes, and part movements to ensure high-quality measurement data collection.

Weighing 2.5 kg, GOM Scan 1 is compact and lightweight. The travel case it offers fits everything required for scanning, making it possible to transport the system wherever small and medium-sized parts need to be measured. Accessory options include a desk stand to mount the scanner and an automated rotation table. GOM Scan 1 caters to various applications with three measuring volumes: 100, 200, and 400 mm field of view.

GOM Scan 1 is available now through CAPTURE 3D.
