ROMER Launches ScanShark V5 Laser Probe at EASTEC
WIXOM, Michigan, May 23, 2007 - ROMER Inc. announced today the
launch of the ScanShark V5 laser probe, a premium addition to its
new-to-the-market portable inspection and reverse engineering systems. A
ScanShark system includes ROMER's seven-axis INFINITE portable CMM, a
ScanShark V5 laser scanning probe, PolyWorks" software, and a laptop or
desktop computer. The mobile metrology system delivers the power of
articulated arm measurement and laser scanning for on-demand part inspection
and/or reverse engineering right on the shop floor. ROMER's suite of
portable measurement products are used worldwide by the automotive,
aerospace, heavy machinery, and general engineering and manufacturing
industries.
The ScanShark V5 is the most flexible and configurable ScanShark laser
probe available. The ScanShark V5 can deliver an unprecedented 458,000
points per second scanning speed, nearly 20 times greater than the ScanShark
V4i, with a point to point resolution of 12 microns, and a 140mm wide laser
stripe. A proprietary integrated rangefinder simplifies the scanning process
for the operator. The V5 is capable of scanning reflective surfaces and
varying colors without applying surface preparation. Mated to a ROMER
Infinite articulating arm, maximum high-density surface inspection of a
workpiece can be achieved, with direct integration to PolyWorks software for
a variety of applications such as inspection, reverse engineering, and other
computer aided engineering activities.
"We are committed to delivering maximum performance and flexibility with
the ROMER ScanShark solutions," states Tom Moran, president of ROMER Inc.
"The addition of the ScanShark V5 allows customers with some of the
toughest-to-scan parts to achieve the desired results with greater ease and
speed than ever before."
