In this application by Rossum Integration s.r.o., empty crates are scanned with the Photoneo PhoXi 3D Scanner to make sure they are not contaminated by candy products previously filled in the crates. After the contamination control, the crates are filled with a material and manipulated by a robot equipped with a special effector, which can grab 4 crates simultaneously.
High-speed, high-precision 3D scanner greatly streamlines the measurement work of wood model makers, which is a labor-intensive and time-consuming process.

3D scanning and robotic manipulation of very thin objects such as wiring harnesses by the Department of Electrical, Electronic and Information Engineering at the University of Bologna.
Following the example set by the FIA, M-Sport saw the need to introduce 3D scanning to control the body shell’s accuracy and ensure that the car met regulatory requirements. After all, winning performances often occur by pushing as close to the limit as practical while remaining compliant with regulations. 3D scanning proved to be the technology required to reach this balance.
