Wixom, MI – ROMER Inc. announces the rollout of the OMEGA portable measuring arm, their most economical tool for multi-purpose non-contact measurement to date. The product will be demonstrated in the Hexagon Booth 3600 at the WESTEC 2009 Exhibition, Los Angeles Convention Center, March 30 – April 02, 2009. The OMEGA system is mega-packaged for 3D scanning applications such as reverse engineering, rapid prototyping, and non-contact inspection. A complete package includes the OMEGA articulating arm, the R-Scan line laser scanning probe, and PC-DMIS Reshaper software. This entry-level, yet full featured solution is priced at $56,000 (model 2025/9 foot size), and is offered in three additional sizes: 2018 (6 foot, 2030 (10 foot) and 2036 (12 foot). The seven-axis arm is comprised of advanced carbon fiber and aluminum construction, which translates into a very lightweight shop floor metrology device.
The OMEGA series presents a new series of 3D portable arms that are fast, intuitive and promote measurement without constraints. Optimized for reverse engineering, the R-Scan non-contact laser scanner offers patented infinite rotation for scanning hard to reach areas. The OMEGA system also features large capacity inspection, repeatability, automatic color recognition, and real-time display of point clouds and point data.
Included in the package is PC-DMIS Reshaper software, a comprehensive 3D point-cloud processing program for users who need to handle rapidly generated point clouds and obtain high-quality 3D meshes. The software collects measurement data “live” from the arm, and rapidly creates and edits 3D polygon mesh models, which can be exported in a variety of formats, to either bring into a CAD program for further processing or STL files to print to a rapid protoyping printer. ROMER rounds out the offering with a “technology plus peace of mind” program, which warrantees the complete system (arm + probe + software).
