When performing equipment maintenance or parts inspection, it’s essential to check key dimensions. Measuring complex parts can be challenging, especially organic parts, as certain dimensions can’t be captured with hand tools like calipers with a high degree of certainty. 3D scanning technology, particularly with a non-contact metrology tool, offers a trusted and efficient solution for inspection.

T-SCAN hawk 2 stands out because it can quickly and easily capture all part dimensions accurately with a volumetric accuracy of up to 0.02 mm + 0.015 mm/m. You can trust it to give you reliable data you can count on for making important decisions.

Modern 3D scanning technology, such as the T-SCAN hawk 2, brings everything you need for metrology into one simple solution.

T-SCAN hawk 2 streamlines the process of capturing complex surface measurements with its user-friendly, guided workflow. You can easily capture 3D scans of a part and complete a thorough inspection all in one go. With significant time savings and precise results, this 3D scanner enables you to accomplish more in less time.

T-SCAN hawk 2 effortlessly scans dark and reflective materials—as well as objects with deep pockets or holes—to provide 3D measurement data with exceptional precision. By activating the Deep Pockets function, you can switch to a single laser line mode using just one camera (instead of two), enabling you to scan deeper into holes, as demonstrated in this comparison scan data captured by the scanner.

3D scanning large parts across a long distance while maintaining accuracy is not easy. However, with the T-SCAN hawk 2, now there’s an easy and intuitive way to scan large objects up to several meters in size. It’s the first portable 3D laser scanner to feature the innovative Satellite Mode, allowing you to scan large objects without the need for traditional photogrammetry or coded markers. It simplifies the process without sacrificing accuracy.

ZEISS INSPECT software (previously GOM INSPECT) is well-known for its high standards in 3D metrology. When paired with the T-SCAN hawk 2 3D scanner, ZEISS INSPECT can analyze point clouds and mesh data to inspect part geometry, compare it to CAD models, and verify tolerances.

ZEISS INSPECT software enables high-precision inspection of complex shapes, which is particularly useful when detailed surface analysis and freeform geometry are critical.

This 3D measurement and inspection software offers powerful functions like GD&T calculations, trend analysis, and digital assembly. You can also get apps with even more specialized functions for different industries. Save time with the parametric concept, which allows you to create project templates for future projects.

Perfect for Assemblies

You can quickly and efficiently perform inspections throughout the assembly process by pairing the T-SCAN hawk 2 with ZEISS INSPECT software.

Analyze GD&T to Quickly and Easily Identify Deviations

It’s critical to know with 100% certainty that your parts will fit and function at the assembly level. Geometric Dimensioning and Tolerancing (GD&T) provides a solid framework for part inspection. GD&T in Zeiss INSPECT is unmatched.

With ZEISS INSPECT, you can easily analyze a part’s size, shape, and position based on datum systems. This makes it simple to check things like flatness, parallelism, or cylindricity. The software also allows for standardized analysis of 2-point distances, maximum material requirements, and position tolerance checks in both local datum and coordinate systems.

Ensuring you’re always working with the most current guidelines, ZEISS INSPECT keeps up-to-date with the latest ISO and ASME standards. The software takes care of the technical details in the background and incorporates the international standards.

With a few mouse clicks, you can perform GD&T inspections, as shown in this video. See how it’s better to conduct GD&T in ZEISS INSPECT:

Visual Reports Presented in an Understandable Way

With all this valuable data at your disposal, how can you transform it into meaningful insights that drive action? With ZEISS INSPECT, creating custom reports is very intuitive. You can include images, tables, diagrams, text, and graphics, and easily use presentation mode or export to PDF—with videos included. Customized reports to the way you want. Share the results with your team to provide better clarity to the situation to make the best decision.

This video shows the process from 3D scanning with T-SCAN hawk 2 to creating an inspection report in ZEISS INSPECT.

Python Enabled

ZEISS INSPECT utilizes the Python scripting language, allowing you to convert all actions within the software into editable Python scripts through the script recorder. Automation helps minimize the effort needed for repetitive tasks.

If you are looking to perform complex scientific computations, simply integrate free Python libraries such as NumPy, SciPy, or Matplotlib and use the available templates or develop it in-house.

Apps Available for Dedicated Applications
