High-Accuracy CMM-Based Laser Scanner from WenzelThe requirements for quality assurance have increased with 3D technologies. Previously all major dimensions could be taken from a 2D drawing for tactile measurement, which is no longer the case today. Modern 3D drawings include little in the way of explicit dimensions. The curves of the freeform surfaces are almost impossible to verify using traditional tactile measurement techniques. Wenzel is providing new advanced 3D measuring technology to solve these measuring issues, and their new “Shapetracer” laser line scanner is quickly becoming a preferred solution. The Wenzel Shapetracer is a high-precision line scanner developed together with the Pointmaster evaluation software from Wenzel Knotenpunkt. Shapetracer is an extremely compact scanner that can be connected to the Renishaw PH6M or PH10M probe head via the Renishaw Autojoint connection and, consequently, can be adapted to almost every coordinate measuring machine.
