Creaform HandySCAN 700 3D Laser Scanner

Description

Creaform HandySCAN 700 3D Laser Scanner – Portable Metrology System for High-Precision Inspection, Reverse Engineering & Quality Control

The Creaform HandySCAN 700 3D Laser Scanner is a professional portable metrology-grade 3D scanning system designed for high-accuracy dimensional inspection, reverse engineering, quality control, and product development.

The HandySCAN 700 was part of Creaform’s generation of portable metrology scanners introduced in 2014, alongside the HandySCAN 300. Creaform designed these systems around portability, accuracy, scanning speed, and ease of use.

Unlike stationary 3D measurement systems, the HandySCAN 700 is designed to be operated by hand and does not require a tripod or external tracking device. This makes it suitable for scanning components directly on the production floor or in other difficult-to-access environments.

Reverse Engineering
The HandySCAN 700 can capture detailed 3D surface geometry for subsequent reverse-engineering and CAD workflows.

Creaform’s software ecosystem includes tools for inspection and Scan-to-CAD workflows. Its current Metrology Suite, for example, includes dedicated inspection and Scan-to-CAD modules.

Portable Metrology
One of the major advantages of the HandySCAN family is portability. Creaform describes the system as a self-contained portable scanner that does not require a tripod or external tracking device.

This allows operators to bring the scanner directly to a component rather than transporting large parts to a dedicated measurement room.
