Now more accurate, automated, faster, and easier to use than ever before, these systems offer the ultimate capabilities for scanning difficult shapes. Available in a broad array of sizes, the DS-Series features full CMM capability as an option. Using its patented laser scanning technology, Surveyor scans parts from all orientations, then easily rotates the data back into a common coordinate system. Operators can quickly and easily digitize simple or complex parts of all sizes, especially those with complex geometry. Typical parts include plastic, wood, cast or stamped metal, rubber components, EDM electrodes, extrusions, molds, dies and impressions of all kinds. Laser Design offers a wide variety of laser probe options which use a direct encoder interface to maximize scan data throughput. Our Surveyor Scan Control software adds versatility and functionality to the DS-Series systems. It controls scanning motion and laser probe settings, and contains advanced data-editing and scanning automation features. The 3D point cloud data can then be processed further with optional software from companies such as Geomagic.
