Creaform GoSCAN Spark 3D Scanner

Creaform GoSCAN Spark 3D Scanner

The Go!SCAN SPARK is a portable, professional and handheld 3D scanner from the Canada-based manufacturer, Creaform. This scanner is appropriate for many industries and applications, from CAD design, prototyping, tooling and much more.

A fast-device for professional applications
It has a resolution of 0.2 mm, an accuracy of 0.05 mm and can capture up to 1,500,000 points per second. Like its predecessors, this scanner uses structured light technology. Creaform claims that this device is user-friendly, plug & play, and portable to facilitate accurate scanning. One important feature is that it comes with proprietary software that includes scan-to-CAD and dimensional inspection modules to improve product development.

Leveraging Creaform’s fastest technology, the Go!SCAN SPARK can scan an object in a question of minutes and then integrate it into your preferred software. As mentioned you can use the manufacturer’s proprietary software called VXelements, but also compatible with a wide range of other software. Including 3D Systems, InnovMetric Software, Metrologic Group, New River Kinematics, Verisurf, Dassault Systèmes, Siemens and Autodesk For help, Creaform’s centres are located all around the world to provide assistance to any needs or queries customers may have.

Creaform Go!SCAN SPARK main features
– User-friendly: according to Creaform, the Go!SCAN SPARK doesn’t require any setup and is able to 3D scan objects without any part preparation.
– Robust hybrid tracking: Point-and-shoot, color data acquisition using geometry and/or texture and/or positioning targets.
– VXelements: this plug-and-play 3D scanner comes with dedicated, proprietary software that includes scan-to-CAD and dimensional inspection modules. It’s also possible to use third-party software suites from Autodesk, 3D Systems, Dassault, etc.
– Live mesh: the 3D scanner allows for optimal visualization while scanning to make sure users can see the scan progress capture the surface needed.

Other additional features:
– VXremote (optional): users looking for an easy setup may opt for Creaform’s tablet interface for an additional cost.
– MaxSHOT 3D (optional): this optical coordinate add-on provides enhanced accuracy and speed for larger parts.
