Technical Specifications
A brief look at the technical specifications of the HandySCAN, to understand how it can help with your metrology-grade measurement applications.
Simplicity and Versatility
The SILVER series offers the same user-friendliness and speed that you can expect from the HandySCAN line-up. With a lower cost, you can enjoy this metrology-grade 3D scanner without blowing your budget. This is the same scanner that our 3D printing team uses to reverse engineer a part in no time.
Incredible Accuracy
It’s almost impossible to find better accuracy in a portable 3D scanner anywhere else in the market. Creaform’s technology allows for dynamic referencing so you can freely move around during scanning while maintaining this tool’s incredible accuracy.
- Unlock high-quality scans. Capture small details and minor features with no issues. When accuracy matters, you need a SILVER scanner.
- Accuracy. As low as 0.030mm (0.0012in)
- Unbelievable repeatability. Each SILVER scanner also has a traceable certification that validates its accuracy and testing.
Professionally-Trusted Technology
Experts across multiple industries trust the SILVER series to deliver the best results. In fact, our team at CAD/CAM Services regularly uses this scanner as part of our 3D CAD services.
- Great balance of price and accuracy. This tool allows you to capture metrology-grade images without overpaying for the technology.
- More than 5,000 users worldwide. Creaform has a strong user base across the world, and many users tout the SILVER scanner as the best option for their production and engineering teams.
- American-made with an impressive history. You’ll notice the quality that goes into every scanner, and Creaform always prioritizes perfection in each tool they produce.
Unrivaled Portability
The SILVER series uses triangulation and optical reflectors to untether the scanner. This allows you to hold it in your hand and move around the part while you scan. As a result, you’ll unlock portability that you won’t find anywhere else.
