Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence increased the performances of the portable measuring system Romer Absolute Arm with a newly RS4 integrated scanner (SI). Thanks to new optics and electronics, the RS4 scans more than 60% faster than its predecessor, increasing performances in particular when measuring difficult objects surfaces such as carbon fibre or machined steel.
The RS4 has an ultra-wide laser line that is almost double the width of the previous model, as well as a lower point resolution, providing greater point cloud detail in significantly less time than before. As with every Romer Absolute Arm model, scanner warm-up and time-consuming scanner calibrations remain unnecessary. The longer stand-off of the RS4 also allows users to scan more deeply into difficult to reach cavities, with no reduction in accuracy performance. The RS4 laser scanner is fitted to every ‘SI’ model Romer Absolut Arm, and is also available as a retrofit product for existing Romer Absolute Arm SI owners looking to upgrade their scanning performances.
