Cutting-Edge Blue Laser and SHINE Technology

Hexagon Manufacturing’s AS1 and AS1x scanners provide the quality and performance for contactless scanning. With low noise, high scanning speed, and an easy-to-view scan line, users can expect true representation of the item being scanned in their software. They can easily switch the scanner from one device to another without any recalibration needed.

Key Features & Benefits

Scan almost any surface with ease

Contactless scanning of various types of surfaces and materials without needing to spend time calibrating the scanner per material, using the AS1’s blue laser and Hexagon’s patented SHINE Technology

Unmatched scanning speed

Capture up to 1.2 million points per second with a visible display of your scanning line and bounding box on the object using projected lights.

Hot-swap devices seamlessly

Move the scanner from one portable measuring arm of the laser tracker onto another without needing to rerun an alignment or calibration between swaps.

Setup profiles per task

Using Hexagon’s RDS software to create user profiles and laser settings, quickly adjust the scanner to be optimized for different projects such as point filtering to specific frequencies for certain materials.

Lightweight and automation-ready

With the AS1 weighing only 400 grams and its ability to interface with automatic trackers and robotic controllers, it reduces user fatigue and the strength needed for robotics to move the scanner around.

Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between the AS1 and AS1X scanner?
The AS1 and AS1X scanners are both blue light lasers and attach to an Absolute Arm and Absolute Tracker. The AS1X has a larger scanning range of 700 mm standoff distance, as opposed to the AS1’s 165 mm standoff distance.
Can this scan shiny and semi-transparent materials?

The SHINE Technology is designed to capture difficult-to-scan materials, like those that are shiny or semi-transparent, as well as duller materials, without needing to adjust any settings, even if it’s captured in the same instance.

Can this capture recessed areas and hole edges?

The single-line laser allows for deeper hole depths and sharper edges to be measured compared to grid-based laser scanners. Operators can define the diameter of a cylinder using the scanner and define the depth with a probe for extra deep recesses.

What certifications and environmental conditions does the scanner have?
The scanner uses a Class-2 Laser and is certified according to ISO 10360-8 Annex D. It is operational within 5 – 45 degrees Celsius and has an IP54 dust/splash rating.
