Using the Faro Photon Scanner we can turn reality into a virtual representation which is being employed in more and more aspects of our everyday lives. From modeling ancient buildings, production plants, crime scenes and football stadiums to design concepts for cars and for replacement parts which have no design data, reverse engineering is a broad field allowing us to create virtually anything we can touch.

Using a FARO Photon 120 3D scanner, we are able to measure 976,000 points per second, at a range of up to 120m (395ft), through 360 degrees (horizontal) and 320 degrees (vertical) and at an accuracy of +-2mm (at 25m), to provide you instantaneous, high resolution 3D imagery, with extreme clarity and full color.

Several industries have realized the immediate benefits in using 3D data for planning, visualizing and measuring. Building Information Modeling (BIM), for example, is relying on scanned data to be used throughout the entire building life cycle. By doing so, civil engineers, architects and construction contractors are all able to collaborate more efficiently and effectively in the design and building process as well as the maintenance of existing building infrastructure.

Industries such as aerospace, automotive, foundry and ship building depend on laser scanning for accurate large scale inspection or reverse engineering. Scanned data provides manufacturers with accurate measurements of complex parts whereby traditional methods of data verification would be too cumbersome and unreliable.

OUTPUT & POST-PROCESSING

Scanner output can be supplied raw, or post processed to your requirements. This includes point cloud manipulation, conversion to ACAD and other common CAD formats and comparison of scanned dimensions to existing electronic files (either previous scans or CAD drawings) to detect additions, subtractions and variations to the scanned object. For example this may be used to detect decay of the object over a period of time using multiple scans or detecting fabrication errors compared to the original manufacturing drawings.
