3D optical measurement device
MaxSHOT 3D Creaform

The optical coordinate measurement system MaxSHOT 3D is the latest Creaform product and adds the accuracy and speed of photogrammetry to the wide range of applications already possible with Creaform technologies. The MaxSHOT 3D system generates positioning models that can be used with all Handyscan 3D, HandyPROBE and MetraSCAN products to determine their repositioning around the object to be scanned or probed. Doing so, we get highly accurate data, and most especially when measuring larger parts.

Combining the MaxSHOT 3D photogrammetric video camera and the VXshot processing software it stands out from other systems because it is so easy to use. Its user-friendly design allows even those new to photogrammetry to quickly and easily generate a high accuracy positioning model of an object based on a series of photos.

Unlike other systems on the market, where data accuracy is partially contingent upon the operator's experience and technique, VXshot features an extremely simple data acquisition process.

Applications:

Inspection
