Manual operation dimensional measurement device HandySCAN 3D MAX

Overview
The HandySCAN 3D MAX Series™ is engineered for large-part inspection and daily industrial use. These portable, wireless, metrology-grade 3D scanners capture accurate 3D measurements on large and complex parts without surface preparation. The series provides instant mesh generation, an embedded display and integrated scan-to-report workflows to accelerate QC/QA tasks.

Key benefits

• Optimized for inspection of large parts, assemblies, tooling and oversized structures
• No surface preparation required for most materials and finishes
• Portable, wireless operation with an optional Mobility Kit for cable-free scanning around large parts
• Embedded screen with guided workflows and live mesh visualization for faster operator onboarding
• Instant mesh generation and export-ready files to shorten scan-to-report time

Performance & Usability
The MAX Series delivers high-speed data acquisition, immediate visual feedback and metrology-grade accuracy in challenging environments. The integrated display keeps mesh and physical part in the same line of sight to improve ergonomics and reduce inspection time.

Accreditation & Measurement Confidence
The system provides accredited results (ISO 17025) and complies with VDI/VDE 2634 part 3 standards. Integrated photogrammetry extends volumetric accuracy and robustness for large-scale measurements and reduces sensitivity to typical environmental instabilities.

Embedded software & Intelligence
Creaform.OS is included, offering hardware–software integration with features such as Smart Resolution, Automatic Shutter, Live Mesh Visualization, AI-driven target detection and real-time feedback—helping operators secure optimal acquisition and high-quality meshes.

Typical applications

• Large-part dimensional inspection and quality control across aerospace, transportation, heavy equipment, energy, mining and shipbuilding
• Reverse engineering of large tooling, molds and assemblies without CAD
• Maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO): documenting worn/damaged assets, CAD comparison and 3D model generation for repair planning
• Non-destructive testing (NDT) workflows when integrated with dedicated NDT software

Complementary solutions
The MAX Series integrates with Creaform Metrology and Integrity Suites for inspection, Scan-to-CAD and NDT pipelines, delivering production-ready meshes and compatibility with downstream CAD and analysis tools.
