Hexagon Metrology presents in Hall 2 / F43-G44 the BIEMH, the new version of the scanner Leica T-Scan. It's the model TS-50, which weighs 20 percent less and is 30 percent smaller than its predecessor. On the other hand, Hexagon presents Sheffield Atlas, a MMC type gantry for precise inspection of large components and manufactured in Vitoria, the jointed-arm robots Romer Omega and the portable scanning sensor of white light R-Scan systemCognitens RE Optigo and the new mini sensitive sensor LSP - X 1.

The volume of the TS-50 model measurement is up to 30 m, the fact that it is not necessary to prepare the surface and its impermeability to ambient light conditions continue to be the key characteristics that determine its superiority over other solutions of the same type

Another of the improvements is the optimization of marker positions for a 6DOF (6 degrees of freedom) readings more precise in the range of positions of the scanner. In addition, the Leica T-Scan has instant temperature compensation for measurements in almost any environment. Users will benefit from a response system improved thanks to a new and intuitive set of LEDs on the back of the scanner that ensures accurate information on the distancia-a - optimal object for scanning. Improve them ergonomics and optimization of the handle design make Leica T-Scan is more comfortable portable scanner in the industry. The new scanner works perfectly committed with the T-Scan Collect 6.0 software, that provides data transfer in real time on the inspection of clouds of points and packages of reverse engineering as the V10 Polyworks, Innovmetric Software, Inc.

Atlas, a gantry type MMC

Hexagon Metrology presents the new Atlas, a MMC type gantry which offers the best value for precio-prestaciones to measure and digitize large workpieces with high precision. Adapts to a wide variety of applications of inspection in different market areas, such as aerospace and wind industry, troquelerías and mould makers, manufacturers of gears of large dimensions, etc.

This new model of coordinate measurement machine is manufactured entirely in Vitoria, in the facilities of Vittek, uses all the power of Hexagon Metrology technology, and is marketed throughout Europe with the Sheffield brand.

New LSP - X 1 sensor.

The new flexible mini sensor

The new LSP - X 1 sensor is part of the LSP-X series that Miniaturized sensors technology, making it ideal for applications with

an articulated system of data collection.

LSP - X 1 has been designed according to the current requirements of measurement machines by coordinates with mobile bridge to ensure better results.

The sensor comes in two versions, the two can be improved with needles of different lengths. Sensors, as well as needles, you can automatically change with sensor changers.

New Romer Omega with R-SCAN.

New Romer Omega with R-SCAN

Romer introduces a new comprehensive and attractive solution for the applications of reverse engineering in an unbeatable quality-price relation. The system is the Omega 2025, an ideal articulated arm for applications of measurement of pieces of metal, wood, alloys, plastics and similar materials.

Digitalization and optical measurement in 3D

CogniTens presents Optigo, a sensor system of scanning portable white light to the automotive industry.

Optigo is a solid and precise solution which is already being used by the motor vehicle manufacturers of Germany, United States, and Asia.

The Optigo system stands out for its low sensitivity to changes in lighting and in the light of the environment, does not have to prepare the surface and is insensitive to vibration of the structure, which allows to measure even with heavy machinery. Optigo is a software that lets you make very good dimensional analysis of alloys, matrices of test and copies, the production of car bodies and assemblies.
