Creaform Unveils MaxSHOT Next Measuring System

By Admin  

May 19, 2017

Creaform has launched a new generation of optical coordinate measuring systems, the MaxSHOT Next.

Quality control and product development specialists from the aerospace, automotive, transportation and heavy industries can benefit from the system’s live go/no-go guidance feature for accurate, reliable measurements for their large-scale metrology projects, the company reports.

Building on the first generation of MaxSHOT 3D, Creaform has developed an “intelligent” measurement solution that autonomously guides users to the right measurements within VXelements. The new MaxSHOT 3D can be used as a standalone measurement device, or in combination with Creaform’s 3D scanners and portable CMMs.

According to the company, benefits include:

  • Visual projections with live go/no-go feedback directly on the part, guiding the user to the correct position to take the shot.
  • New light, ergonomic design engineered specifically for photogrammetric measurement of large parts ranging from 2 to 10 meters.
  • Improved hardware reliability and multifunction buttons for easier interaction with the software in shop-floor conditions.
