Konica Minolta Sensing Americas Introduces New RANGE 7 Non-Contact 3D Digitizer
RAMSEY, N.J., Feb. 20 / -- Konica Minolta Sensing Americas, Inc. (KMSA), a worldwide leader in the industrial measurement of color, light and shape, announces the launch of the RANGE 7, the first product of a new series of high-performance 3D scanning instruments to meet the needs of the industrial inspection, manufacturing, and quality control segments in various industries. The RANGE 7 is a high speed, high accuracy, non-contact 3D digitizer enabling companies to exchange 3D CAD data.
KMSA and the RANGE 7 continue to build on the success of its VIVID line of digitizers introduced in 1997. Since then KMSA has led the way in the non-contact 3D digitizer market with the introduction of the VIVID 300, VIVID 900 and VIVID 9i in diverse applications such as the measurement of cultural artifacts and the human body.
The Konica Minolta RANGE 7 offers not only high performance but also excellent operating characteristics. It has a compact, light weight (approx. 6.7kg) design that is less than 1/2 the size and weight of previous models to provide high mobility at measurement locations. The RANGE 7 can take high-speed scans of approximately 2 seconds per shot and utilizes interchangeable lenses to provide a broad scan range.
In addition, it is equipped with a multi-focus mode driven by advanced focusing technology available only from Konica Minolta to enable high-quality measurements to be obtained with ease. In addition, the RANGE 7 features a 3D preview function to let users quickly predict what the measurement results will be like and a navigation function to guide users through the measurement process in the software.
