When replacement parts are hard to source or time is critical, reverse engineering becomes more than a technical exercise. Neptuno Pumps is using the HandySCAN 3D | EVO Series to capture complex component geometry with the portability, live scan feedback, and on-scanner visualization that help operators stay focused on the part while they work. For mining and industrial operations, that kind of data can support faster decisions when teams need to understand a worn, critical, or hard-to-source component. With the Creaform Metrology Suite, 3D scan data can then move into inspection and Scan-to-CAD workflows, giving engineering teams a clearer foundation for documentation, dimensional analysis, and reverse engineering. Thanks to Neptuno Pumps for sharing this demonstration. #FAROCREAFORM #HandySCAN3D #ReverseEngineering #3DScanning #Metrology

When asset integrity decisions depend on the quality of the data, inspection teams need tools that can go where the work happens. The API - American Petroleum Institute Inspection & Mechanical Integrity Summit opens today in San Antonio, and FARO CREAFORM is there to show how accurate 3D measurement can support inspections in real field and site conditions. Stop by Booth #719 through Thursday, July 23 to meet our team and see how portable 3D measurement and NDT solutions can help capture surface geometry, document damage, support analysis, and give teams clearer data for mechanical integrity workflows. 📅 July 20–23, 2026 📍 Henry B.

A quick measurement on the shop floor should not turn into a pile of hand tools, notes, and repeat checks. For machine shops and small production teams, the Gage Max FaroArm helps bring portable CMM measurement directly to the part, so operators can inspect complex geometries where the work is already happening. With fast setup, repeatable 3D measurements, and comparison against nominal CAD data, teams can move beyond basic hand checks and capture the kind of production data that supports reporting, trend analysis, and faster decisions. It is a practical way to reduce inspection bottlenecks, improve consistency, and keep quality control closer to the production flow. 📎 Learn more 👉 https://ow.ly/GXsg50Zp3f6 #FAROCREAFORM #GageMax #PortableCMM #Metrology #QualityControl

La inspección industrial no termina cuando se completa el escaneo. En este webinar grabado junto con AFM Advanced Manufacturing Technologies Oussama e Iker explican un flujo completo de inspección 3D, desde la captura de datos y la alineación hasta la verificación dimensional, el reporte y la toma de decisiones en entornos reales. La sesión muestra cómo la digitalización 3D portátil puede apoyar la inspección de componentes metálicos, la comparación con CAD, el análisis de superficies, los flujos repetitivos y los procesos de scan-to-CAD. También se presentan capacidades del HandySCAN 3D | EVO Series, como la visualización en el escáner, la guía en tiempo real y funciones pensadas para ayudar a los operadores a capturar mejores datos directamente donde se realiza el trabajo. 📎 Ve la grabación 👉https://ow.ly/BkQ250ZpGN9 #FAROCREAFORM #AFMCluster #Digitalización3D #Metrología #ControlDeCalidad

With the latest evolution of the HandySCAN 3D|MAX Series, large-part scanning becomes easier to manage where the work actually happens. The new EVO platform brings live scan feedback directly onto the scanner, helping operators stay focused on the part instead of constantly looking back to a workstation. Paired with the Mobility Kit, the MAX Series also gives teams more freedom to move around large parts, complex geometries, and hard-to-reach areas without being limited by cables or carts. Our latest blog looks at how this new scanning experience supports real applications in aerospace, transportation, power generation, mining, and heavy industry, where reliable 3D data often needs to be captured outside controlled metrology environments. 📎 Read the full article 👉https://ow.ly/szMv50Zmxv1 #FAROCREAFORM #HandySCAN3D #MAXSeries #3DScanning #Metrology

One week until AMTEX - Asian Machine Tool Exhibition 2026. For manufacturers working with machined components, assemblies, and complex parts, accurate measurement is not just a final check. It is part of keeping production moving, reducing rework, and making quality decisions faster. At Hall 12, D2, our team will show how portable 3D measurement can support real shop-floor workflows, from probing and handheld 3D scanning to optical CMM scanning. Stop by to get a closer look at solutions such as the Quantum X FaroArm Series, HandySCAN 3D | EVO Series, and MetraSCAN 3D, and see how accurate 3D data can fit closer to where the work is happening. 📅 July 24–27, 2026 📍 India Expo Mart, Booth: Hall 12, D2 📎Learn more about the event👉 https://ow.ly/OA1a50Znufh #FAROCREAFORM #AMTEX2026 #3DScanning #Metrology #Manufacturing

Quality control has to keep up with production, not slow it down. For manufacturers working with high volumes, complex parts, and tight inspection requirements, the challenge is often finding a way to measure more dimensions on more parts without adding more manual work to the process. The R-Series brings automated 3D quality control closer to production with robot-mounted optical CMM scanning through the MetraSCAN 3D-R and turnkey measuring cell options with the CUBE-R. With high-speed 3D scanning, offline programming through the Creaform Metrology Suite, and solutions built for shop-floor conditions, teams can move toward faster inspections, repeatable results, and better visibility into part quality. 📎 Learn more about the R-Series 👉https://ow.ly/fx7w50ZmWiq #FAROCREAFORM #RSeries #AutomatedInspection #QualityControl #AQC

Many inspection teams already work inside PolyWorks|Inspector every day, so the value of 3D scanning is even stronger when the data can move directly into that environment. In a new demonstration, Measurement Solutions Ltd and 3D Scanners UK Ltd show how the HandySCAN 3D | EVO Series can be used inside PolyWorks|Inspector, from scan setup and pre-alignment to feature guidance and inspection review. The workflow shows how operators can scan directly in the 3D scene, align data to CAD during acquisition, use guidance to target the required features, and move into control views and reporting without breaking the inspection process. For teams already using PolyWorks, it is a practical look at how FARO CREAFORM handheld 3D scanning can fit into existing measurement routines while making acquisition more guided and efficient.

Have you heard what’s new in the HandySCAN 3D MAX Series? The HandySCAN MAX EVO and HandySCAN MAX EVO Elite bring the EVO platform experience to large-part measurement, giving teams a more guided, mobile, and intuitive way to scan bigger components directly where the work happens. Large parts often mean more time moving around the object, checking coverage, and making sure the scan is complete before the next step. With the MAX Series, features like the embedded screen, live 3D visualization, wireless capability through the Mobility Kit, and support for parts from 1 to 15 m help keep that process easier to follow during inspection, QA/QC, reverse engineering, NDT, and scan-to-report workflows. 📎 Learn more 👉https://ow.ly/6VRR50Zn2hS #FAROCREAFORM #HandySCAN3D #3DScanning #Metrology #QualityControl
