Mode switching and steadfast tracking
Capture objects at a rate of up to 120 FPS for tracking that stays fully locked onto objects, ensures there are no holes in your data, and makes Artec Point a breeze to use.
Change between three modes for best results – a high-speed grid, parallel lasers for complex geometry capture, and a single laser for obscure geometries like deep holes.
Incredibly easy to use metrology-grade accuracy
Artec Point captures complex surfaces with incredible accuracy and repeatability, consistently delivering high-quality data for industrial metrology.
Most of Artec Point’s main functions can be carried out with four easy-to-access buttons that users are able to configure for optimal workflow efficiency.
Wide field of view with zoom
Zoom in to view surfaces up to 8x more closely for complete scan coverage that picks up tiny details that may not be visible upon first glance
The Artec Point 3D laser scanner features a vast scanning area that allows it to capture larger objects while keeping targets in view for seamless, high-speed 3D scanning.
A metrology-certified 3D laser scanner
Artec Point’s high accuracy and repeatability are ISO & VDI/VDE-certified, so you can use it for advanced metrology, confident that you’ll get immediate, reliable results.
Achieve high repeatability
With an intuitive interface and unshakable tracking, Artec Point ensures that you get repeatable results regardless of operator skill, without having to fine-tune any settings.
Capture in confined areas
With a featherweight frame and ergonomic design, Artec Point can easily be used one-handed, and tilted to scan under, behind, or into seemingly unreachable areas.
Robust build quality
Housed in a metal, grip-friendly casing, the Artec Point 3D scanner is ideal for industrial metrology applications where durability is essential.
Point in Artec Studio
Real-time visualization
Artec Studio’s intuitive color-coded 3D Radar gives users the feedback needed to adjust their scanning approach for optimal data capture in real time.
Fast-track data processing
Target-based 3D scanners and Artec Studio are the perfect match – capture and processing are so quick and easy, you can often get from scan to mesh in seconds.
A truly all-in-one software
Artec Studio features all your reverse engineering and inspection essentials – data can be sent to ZEISS INSPECT or Control X in just one click, for more advanced use cases.
Compare scans to CAD data
Tidy meshes and create CAD bodies with auto-surfacing, then check for deviations instantly without having to leave the same tab – let alone open another software.
Inspection tools built-in
Divide scans into sections, uncover defects with Artec Studio’s 3D Compare Map, and ensure products meet standards with intuitive Tolerance Checking.
Merge scans to boost results
Combine scans from our first handheld target-based 3D laser scanner with data captured by other Artec 3D scanners to create large, even more detailed 3D models.
Applications
Quality control
Go through product batches with a fine-tooth comb to ensure they meet desired tolerances and quality standards before they’re installed or shipped to customers.
Reverse engineering
Accuracy is a cornerstone of effective reverse engineering – capture exact geometric representations for comparison, or turning into duplicates for iteration.
Retrofitting
Capture parts no longer in circulation, convert to CAD, and remanufacture for modern applications – making improvements as you see fit.
Retrofitting
Design new parts like custom automotive hoods that fit perfectly onto existing geometries with a submillimeter-accurate 3D scanner.
Maintenance, repair, and overhaul
Digitize damaged parts with high accuracy to find defects, uncover out-of-tolerance geometries, and carry out repairs that keep assemblies and workflows operating.
Inspection at any scale
Ensure that any small-to-medium-sized product will perform as desired. Whether in small batches or at an industrial scale, Artec Point is ideal for checking parts in fine detail.

“Something recent (2-4 years)”
“Best bang for buck – as much as possible”
“A recent gaming card with 8 GB VRAM or more” *
“2 TB is enough with a robust backup solution” **
* If you are using CAD software such as SOLIDWORKS, Inventor etc, a gaming card may not be fully supported so you may have to step up to a NVIDIA Quadro / RTX A-series. We have access to a growing list of suitable graphics cards so if in doubt, ask.
This IT spec information is intended to be used as a guide only and final IT spec information should be checked thoroughly in person with one of our technicians prior to making a computer purchase.
