3D Coordinate Measuring Machines combine touch and optical scanning for versatile 3D inspection. They support contact scanning via compact sensors like VAST XXT TL3 and active VAST XT types, plus high-speed laser options such as LineScan One for non-contact surface capture.
These systems achieve top accuracy levels, like 1.7+L/300 µm in select models, with flexible probe positioning across thousands of angles via RDS carriers. Efficiency gains include SoftTouch mode for soft materials, cutting cycle times up to 40%, while compact designs (2.2 m² footprint) use thermally stable glass ceramic scales and rigid frames for reliability.
User-friendly software like CALYPSO simplifies plan creation and automated runs, fitting diverse lab setups with space-saving builds and vibration resistance
