" Expert 3d Laser Scanning & Portable Measurement Services"
Full Offsite Nationwide Support
Overview
QCI offers expert and professional 3D Laser Scanning & Portable Measurement solutions. We cover everything from 3D Laser Scanning & Portable Measurement to full Laser Tracking for larger applications. these types of measurement solutions are perfect for optimising workflow for larger metrology applications.
The operational qualities of 3D laser scanning can be best demonstrated by the use of one of our Hexagon Romer & Faro portable measurement arms. Combine this with the latest Polyworks Inspector Software and our experienced Engineers – we can deliver the perfect metrology solution.
Our Romer Laser Scanner can capture a massive 752,000 points every second over a laser line of 150mm. The ultra-accurate scanner is perfect for capturing 3D surface data over a whole host of different materials.
3D Onsite Laser Tracking services are possible utilising the latest Leica Absolute Tracker AT500 from Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence. Allowing for full portability due to its wireless operation capabilities, the AT500 allows us to take the tracker to the work location. With its rapid setup, we can be ready to measure in minutes as soon as we arrive onsite.
Laser Trackers provide high accuracy 3D measurement which often allows you to measure areas or places which have previously been impossible or highly restricted. With up-to 160 meters radial measurement, 3D Laser tracker technology is the perfect solution for supporting onsite measurement tasks. From simple fixture alignment and setup to full machinery and production line positioning, we can provide a bespoke package to support you
QCI’s scanning / portable capabilities include full 3D scanning, reverse engineering, part comparison to CAD, large fixture and jig measurement, & laser tracking. We can cover measurement on objects such as machined components, composites, fabrications, castings, plastics, tooling & jigs and many other applications.
