Faro Introduces Leap ST Handheld 3D Scanner in Webinar

Faro Technologies, a global player in 3D measurement, imaging and realization solutions, recently hosted a webinar on the launch of the Leap ST. This new handheld solution expands the company’s product portfolio, offering customers a complete range of portable 3D metrology devices. Faro paired this launch with an update to its CAM2 Software, for a simple and effective way to scan parts. The Leap ST Handheld 3D Scanner is a metrology-grade tool designed for measuring and verifying a variety of surfaces and parts. Users no longer need multiple devices for different tasks. The portability of the Leap ST is key, allowing users to measure quickly by bringing it directly to the part.

An advanced optical configuration reduces the number of required targets. The integration of blue laser, infrared and photogrammetry technologies, complemented by optical filters, ensures effective scanning across virtually any surface. VDI/VDE 2634 certified devices also provide confirmation of operator results. 

During a recent webinar, Will Pitarello, a Senior Applications Specialist, demonstrated the Leap ST's capabilities by scanning a Faro chopper, showcasing its ability to seamlessly scan different materials in one go. The scanner's optimized algorithms adapted to tricky surfaces like chrome, delivering high accuracy without excessive noise or distortion. With multiple operating modes, including large-area scanning and hyper fine scanning, the Leap ST can handle everything from large parts to intricate details.

The Leap ST and CAM2 Software are available in all regions. Faro is now offering on-demand access to the webinar recording.
