L100 – Best combination of productivity and accuracy
The newest laser scanner from Nikon Metrology introduces the 4th generation Enhanced Sensor Performance (ESP4). With a high point resolution along a 100 mm wide stripe, the L100 achieves a data collection rate of 200,000 points per second. As the most productive line scanner, it offers double the point resolution, 2.5 x the scanning speed and 30% better accuracy than other scanners. With a projected field-of-view, the L100 makes for easy path planning and the ESP4 means it is the most adept at handling difficult shiny or reflective surfaces.
Like other line scanners, the L100 is often used for surface and feature inspection in automotive and aerospace applications. However, its specification makes it the fastest and most accurate multi-purpose scanner, therefor the most proficient tool for almost any application.

LC15Dx – Closing the gap with tactile accuracy
The high accuracy LC15Dx uses a smaller laser stripe, but with more points along the stripe for a higher resolution makes it the most accurate Nikon Metrology laser scanner available. The LC15Dx perfectly suits digitizing compact or detailed objects with higher point density and tighter tolerances, both suited for surfaces and features. Considering this, the LC15Dx is often used for the inspection of high precision parts.
The LC15Dx closes the gap between laser scanner and tactile probe accuracy, making it a viable alternative to a tactile probe for an increasing number of high precision CMM applications. In tests, the LC15Dx achieved the accuracy associated with using a tactile probe on a CMM. The probing error of 1.9 µm mirrors the accuracy expected when using a CMM fitted with a tactile probe. Unlike a tactile probe though, the LC15Dx uses non-contact 3D laser triangulation to measure the surface directly and eliminate probe compensation errors.

XC65Dx – The ultimate scanner for feature inspection and more…
The XC65Dx Cross Scanner utilises three laser stripe scanners in one sensor. The three lasers are spaced 120 degrees apart and observe the part in question from three angles. By doing this, the XC65Dx can acquire the same amount of data with just one scan than a line scanner would do in three scans. This feature makes the XC65Dx well suited to feature inspection of slots, holes and grooves in sheet metals or items with a large complex surface area. It is often used in automotive BIW (Body-in-White) inspection, gap & flush and driveline casting inspection.
XC65Dx-LS (long standoff variant)
Whilst the long standoff Cross Scanner retains the many advantages of the original XC65Dx, it also excels in dealing with accessing difficult-to-reach or obscured areas. By capturing geometry up to a distance of 170 mm (7.1 ”), the scanner gains optimum access to cavity surfaces of body-in-white structures or can scan over the clamps that hold components in position. For these reasons, the XC65Dx-LS scanner is used a lot on horizontal-arm CMMs in the automotive industry.

MMDx ModelMaker sanner – Portable productivity
MMDx ModelMaker scanners are used in handheld applications and feature different model with different stripe widths. They are optimised for portable 3D inspection and reverse engineering and are of a robust design to be deployed in both metrology labs or on a production shop floor. Just like the CMM scanners, the ModelMakers use ESP technology. Incorporating dynamic point-per-point laser intensity adaptation which allows different surface materials, finishes and transitions to be scanned without user interaction.

K-Scan MMDx – Full freedom scanning
MMDx scanners are used in the K-Scan probe with Optical CMM localizer. K-Scan MMDx is a walk-around laser scanner for portable metrology applications. Accurate, easy-to-use and with stunning performance ensure it to be the most capable handheld scanning solution without mechanical constraints. The scanner is tracked by the K-CMM Optical Tracker, so that operators can measure anywhere needed.
© MMDx is the ultimate tool for accurate part-to-CAD inspection and productive reverse engineering, combining the accuracy and productivity of the MMDx laser scanner and the user freedom, measurement volume and motion compensation of the K-CMM Optical Tracker system. The optical CMM is used in larger measuring volumes and can easily cover a full car. The measuring volume can even be extended further to accommodate trucks, buses or off-road vehicles.
