Precision Component Scanning

HandySCAN Black scanning a helicopter component

What We Scan

  • Turbine blades & airfoils — full surface capture for wear analysis, repair assessment, and reverse engineering
  • Structural brackets & housings — complete geometry verification against CAD for flight and defense hardware
  • Precision tooling & molds — as-built documentation and wear tracking over time
  • Medical devices & implants — high-resolution capture for quality verification and regulatory documentation
  • Complex machined parts — full GD&T analysis including surfaces unreachable by traditional gauging

Why the HandySCAN BLACK Elite?

Where the HandySCAN MAX is built for size, the HandySCAN BLACK Elite is built for precision. It delivers up to 0.012 mm accuracy and captures fine surface detail that larger scanners miss — including complex geometries, deep pockets, and surfaces with tight radii. Self-referencing technology means no fixturing required, and the portable design brings the scanner to the part, not the other way around.
