Optical 3D Metrology
Highly accurate, non-contact measurements using state-of-the-art 3D scanning technology
Versatile and Precise
Where maximum precision, speed, and flexibility are required, optical 3D metrology is the ideal method. It makes it possible to capture complex components in three dimensions and convert them into digital models — forming the basis for quality assurance, reverse engineering.

engineering, and process optimization in modern production. We use methods such as laser triangulation and fringe light projection: by projecting a light pattern onto the component surface and capturing it with a camera, a detailed image of even complex geometries or fine structures is created. The measurement data is then converted into a digital 3D model.
Our optical 3D metrology offers a wide range of applications — from the automotive and aerospace industries to medical technology, archaeology, restoration, and many other fields. Thanks to the non-contact and highly accurate measurement process, components of very different sizes and levels of complexity can be captured reliably.
Advantages
- Versatile Application: Suitable for a wide range of industries and materials
- Variable Component Sizes: Capable of measuring both small, complex parts and large structures
- Non-Contact Measurement: Prevents deformation and damage, ideal for sensitive components
- Efficiency and Flexibility: Mobile measuring systems for on-site use

The ATOS 5 12M is a highly precise optical 3D measuring system from ZEISS.
It is based on blue-light fringe projection technology and was specifically developed for the requirements of industrial applications. With its high resolution and precision, this system is ideal for tasks where accuracy and speed are crucial. Thanks to its comprehensive software integration, the ATOS 5 12M not only delivers precise measurement results, but also enables in-depth analyses that sustainably improve production quality.
Advantages at a Glance:
- Accredited Measurements: Thanks to our accredited sensor (in accordance with DIN EN ISO/IEC 17025), we are able to perform official DAkkS measurements.
- Different Measuring Volumes: Components of a wide range of sizes and materials can be captured in high resolution.
- Mobile Use: The system can be used on a mobile platform in various environments, enabling on-site measurements.
- Software Integration: Facilitates in-depth analyses and reporting.

Compared to the ATOS 5, the ATOS Q 12M offers several key advantages, especially in terms of flexibility and ease of handling. Thanks to its compact design, it can be integrated more easily into different working environments and is perfectly suited for small to medium-sized components. The ATOS Q stands out for its versatility and the ability to scan even in confined spaces.
With our smallest measuring volume (MV50), even the finest details can be captured — for example, structures starting at around 1 mm in size.

The ScanBox 6130 is a fully automated 3D measuring system designed for the inspection of large components up to three meters in size. It enables a completely automated measurement workflow, including data evaluation. This significantly shortens the inspection process, makes it less dependent on the operator, and increases reliability. By combining the ATOS 5 with the PlusBox, large volumes of data can be processed quickly and high-resolution 3D data can be provided for comprehensive analyses.
Its robust design and ease of operation make the ScanBox 6130 the ideal solution for demanding measurement tasks and for the sustainable improvement of production quality.

The TRITOP 5204 is a mobile, highly precise photogrammetry system specifically developed for the measurement of large components and structures. It enables the non-contact capture of reference points and characteristic object features in order to create an exact 3D coordinate system. This reference data can then be used as the basis for further 3D scans (e.g. with ATOS) or independently for deformation analyses and form measurements.
This system is often used as a supplement to 3D scanners to increase accuracy in large-volume measurements. The TRITOP 5204 is ideally suited for complex components such as car bodies, aircraft structures, casting molds, or machine components, and thanks to its mobility, it can be used directly on site. As a result, it delivers reliable measurement results even in demanding environments.

The ZEISS T-SCAN hawk 2 is a highly precise 3D laser scanning system specifically suited for measuring complex and large-surface components. With its high resolution and excellent measurement accuracy, it is ideal for demanding applications in quality assurance, reverse engineering, and prototype construction. The system captures millions of data points in real time, enabling the creation of highly detailed 3D models that can be processed directly in ZEISS software.
With these five systems, we cover a broad spectrum of optical 3D metrology — from small, delicate components to large structures measuring several meters. Whether manual, mobile, or fully automated, we always find the right solution for your measurement requirements.
