Exact Metrology announces the immediate availability of the new Artec Micro 3D scanner. Artec is a developer and manufacturer of professional 3D scanners and software. The Artec Micro, an automated, metrology-grade desktop 3D scanner is Artec 3D’s most accurate 3D scanner to date and is used for scanning tiny mechanical parts, such as engine valves or connectors, for inspection and reverse engineering.

The Artec Micro is equipped with twin cameras and blue LED lights that are synchronized with the scanner’s dual axis rotation system, creating an accurate digital copy using minimal frames. The fully automated, industrial scanner creates a high-resolution color 3D scan that offers an extremely high point accuracy of up to 10 microns (0.004-in.), 1/10th the size of a single grain of table salt.  Resolution of .029 mm (0.0011-in.) and a 6.4 MP camera that allows for the capture of texture data are provided.
