Artec 3D, a provider of 3D scanners, has launched the Spider II, a new handheld 3D scanner. The device is designed to capture complex objects with the highest level of detail and aims to set new standards in 3D scanning technology.
The Spider II builds on its predecessor, the Artec Space Spider, and brings with it new improvements. It utilises blue light technology to capture high quality geometry and texture data. With a resolution of 0.05 mm, the finest surface details can be digitised.
An outstanding feature of the Spider II is its increased scanning speed. At 30 images per second, it works four times faster than its predecessor. In addition, the volume capture range has been doubled to 1,800 cm³, enabling the digitisation of larger and more complex objects.
The scanner weighs 950 grams and has no targets, making it particularly user-friendly. Set-up takes just a few seconds so users can start scanning quickly.
The Spider II has a wide range of applications. In the design industry, it can be used to create lifelike 3D models thanks to its colour capture capabilities. In the medical sector, it enables the capture of the smallest anatomical details, which is valuable for the customisation of devices or digital twin diagnoses.
The Spider II is particularly useful in the manufacturing and automotive industries, where tight tolerances play a major role. Its high accuracy and resolution make it the ideal tool for reverse engineering projects.
