In a desire to provide easier access to automation, Creaform is unveiling the latest version of its VXscan-R software module for the VXelements 10 platform. This new version offers compatibility with a wider range of robots, including collaborative robots (cobots).

VXscan-R software is an integral part of the Creaform R-Series. According to the company, the software is the optimal automated 3D scanning solution for at-line applications, in turnkey solutions, or for customisable layouts. VXscan-R offers a reliable and accurate digital twin environment for program preparation, scan simulations and execution. Used with the MetraScan 3D-R, a robot-mounted optical CMM scanner, the R-Series is for companies that want to find defects earlier and ensure that all parts are measured correctly, without human impact and subjectivity.

With its lightweight and compact design, this new offer of cobots in the R-Series can be deployed easily and rapidly, regardless of the user’s level of expertise or experience.

Notably, the MetraScan 3D-R offers high-performance optics, blue laser technology and 360° target coverage, providing optimal measurement accuracy, speed, versatility and operational simplicity in quality control tasks.

“By adding the cobots to the R-Series offer, and by supporting more industrial robots, we can guarantee that the best scanning technology powered by offline programming software is accessible to businesses of all sizes,” explains Jérôme-Alexandre Lavoie, product manager at Creaform. “Truly, harnessing the power of automation has never been easier.”
