The Kscan20 features an integrated photogrammetry module, which allows us to optimize and obtain better results when capturing large components.

When the term precision is used, it generally refers to a scan; however, volumetric precision relates to how accurate the result is when the different scans that make up the capture are aligned and merged to form a 3D model.

To understand this, let's look at the following example. If the capture scanner has an integrated photogrammetry system, like the Kscan20, the relationship would be as follows: when capturing a 5m component.

 

 

Using only the scanning module

0.020mm +0.06m/m = 0.020+0.3mm, the volumetric precision of this capture would be 0.32 mm

With reference bar (included with the equipment)

0.02+0.035mm/m = 0.02mm+ 0.175mm, the volumetric precision of this capture would be 0.195mm

With 1m high precision bar

0.020mm+0.020mm/m = 0.01+0.1, the volumetric precision of this capture would be 0.11mm

This represents a significant difference in volumetric precision when high precision is required for large parts.
