Scantech NimbleTrack Gen2

Next-generation industrial 3D measurement system for precision metrology and quality control.

Scanology (Scantech) NimbleTrack Gen2

Scanology (Scantech) NimbleTrack Gen2 is a revolutionary wireless scanning system built to handle the most demanding metrology and quality control tasks in real production environments. Unlike traditional tracker-based systems, NimbleTrack Gen2 delivers mobility without compromising accuracy, thanks to its patented i-Tracker technology and adaptive photogrammetry.

The system operates independently of external power sources and delivers accurate 3D data instantly on the shop floor, cutting measurement time by 5 to 7 times compared with comparable systems. It is not just a scanner but a complete measurement lab in one compact device that fits in a rugged case and is ready to work anywhere in your facility.

Technological Advantages of NimbleTrack Gen2

The ScanTech NimbleTrack Gen2 scanning system is an integrated industrial measurement solution designed around the requirements of real-world production.

The system consists of two main components, the i-Scanner (scanning head) and the i-Tracker (position tracking system), which operate wirelessly over Wi-Fi 6.

Key Technological Features

Multi-mode laser system: NimbleTrack Gen2 features an intelligent laser line system that automatically switches between modes depending on the task:

Ultra-fast scanning (54 blue laser lines) for large surfaces and rapid geometry capture
High-resolution scanning (17 parallel laser lines) for detailed capture of complex geometries and small features
Deep hole scanning (additional laser line) for capturing internal surfaces and hard-to-reach areas
Adaptive photogrammetry for accuracy over long distances and large volumes

The system is fully self-contained thanks to built-in batteries and a wireless module. The i-Scanner and i-Tracker can operate up to 4.2 meters apart, allowing objects of virtually any size to be scanned. Edge Inspection technology enables data to be pre-processed directly in the scanner, reducing the computing power required from the laptop.

Industrial reliability: the i-Scanner and i-Tracker housings are made of aerospace-grade aluminum alloys and composite materials that protect against dust, moisture and mechanical impact. The system has been tested in extreme conditions and operates at temperatures from -10°C to +40°C and humidity up to 90% non-condensing.
