Artec Micro

Artec Micro high-precision 3D scanner

This is a state-of-the-art desktop 3D scanner equipped with dual cameras and blue LED lights perfectly synchronised with its dual-axis rotation system. This configuration makes it possible to create an accurate digital copy of an object using a minimal number of captured frames. With this advanced 3D scanning technology, Artec Micro delivers highly accurate results for applications such as quality control and inspection of small objects, reverse engineering, precision mechanics, dentistry, jewellery, design and more. It is the ultimate scanning solution for any desktop.

Artec Micro is easy to use thanks to its compact design and circular scanning platform. It also offers powerful and robust software through its integration with Artec Studio. This software simplifies scan processing and allows the final 3D model to be exported to programs such as SOLIDWORKS, PolyWorks Inspector, Control X and Design X. With Artec Micro, the 3D scanning process is fast and straightforward, even for users with little or no previous training.

• Accuracy of up to 10 microns
• Metrology-grade scans for quality control
• Fully automated 3D scanner
• Easy one-click 3D capture
• Creation of digital copies of small or tiny objects
• No markers required

Smart scanning

Micro’s Smart Scanning mode is an advanced feature that allows objects to be digitised completely automatically with minimal user intervention. Once the object is placed on the scanning platform, Micro captures every surface using the ideal number of frames to achieve a fast and efficient scan.

This mode saves both time and storage space when processing each scan, allowing users to digitise more objects in less time while using less storage capacity. In short, Smart Scanning mode makes 3D digitisation easier, faster and more efficient than ever.

Artec Micro applications

Quality inspection Micro’s high scanning accuracy makes it an ideal solution for quality control and product inspection across a wide range of industries. It delivers metrology-grade scans with an accuracy of up to 10 microns, allowing it to measure details far smaller than those visible to the naked eye. This enables more thorough and precise inspections, helping to ensure that products meet the highest quality standards. Its accuracy is among the best offered by today’s advanced scanners, making it a popular choice for a broad range of inspection and quality-control applications.
	Reverse engineering With its high accuracy and ability to capture fine details, Artec Micro is a valuable tool for reverse engineering and redesigning existing components. This is particularly important for small parts, which can be difficult to capture with other scanners. By digitising these components and combining them with new designs, Artec Micro can accelerate design and prototyping processes, helping to save time and reduce production costs. Its ability to create 3D-printable models from scanned data also makes it easy to produce multiple copies of the captured parts.
Jewellery With Artec Micro, jewellers can obtain precise and highly detailed 3D models of antique jewellery, allowing them to create exact replicas or make modifications with ease. With point accuracy of up to 10 microns, Micro can capture even the finest details of highly intricate pieces. This makes it possible to create complex customised designs faster and more easily than ever before. From initial data capture to final production, Artec Micro makes the entire process faster and more accurate.
	Cultural heritage conservation and archaeology Artec Micro is also an ideal tool for restoring historic objects. By digitising damaged items, virtual repairs can be carried out before producing exact replacement parts through 3D printing. This allows historic objects to be restored without damaging the original, preserving their authenticity and historical value. Artec Micro’s ability to capture precise and extremely fine details makes it an invaluable tool for preserving cultural heritage for future generations.
Dentistry With Artec Micro, dental professionals can quickly and accurately scan dental models and generate high-quality digital models for a wide range of applications, including the production of customised dental prostheses and dental implant planning. The ability to export 3D scans to specialised dental software such as Exocad also allows professionals to integrate the data easily into existing workflows, simplifying collaboration with other dental specialists and the use of digital models in everyday practice.
