Built for quality control, reverse engineering, and inspection, it captures complex, black, and reflective surfaces that defeat ordinary scanners, and its blue Class II lasers are fully eye-safe. Point II is the successor to the Artec Point, upgraded where it counts: a new laser projection system captures up to 5.8 million measurements per second, more than double its predecessor, with 54 laser lines in ultra-fast mode and 17 parallel lines in hyper-fine mode. Everything customers relied on in the original, including its certified accuracy, three scanning modes, handling, and Artec Studio workflow, carries over unchanged. What makes Point II different Certified metrology accuracy Every unit is calibrated and performance-tested at an ISO 17025 accredited lab to VDI/VDE 2634 and JJF 1951 standards, so scans are ready for demanding metrology applications with repeatable, operator-independent results. Denser data in every pass The upgraded laser array delivers up to 5.8 million measurements per second, capturing more surface per sweep so detailed scans finish in fewer passes. Tracking that stays locked on Capture at up to 120 FPS with gap-free frame acquisition that compensates for fast or abrupt hand movements without losing accuracy. Three modes for every surface Switch at the click of a button: 54 crossed lasers for fast capture of large objects, 17 parallel lasers for fine detail and engraved features, or a single laser for deep holes and grooves. Reaches where others can't At 570 g (1.3 lbs) with a one-handed grip and angled HD cameras, Point II tilts into confined spaces, tight assemblies, and awkward angles. Magnify view lets you zoom up to 8x for complete coverage of tiny details. Built for the shop floor A rugged, lightweight metal housing, IP50 dust protection, a wide operating range of −10 to 40 °C (14 to 104 °F), and efficient cooling keep it performing through long, high-duty scanning sessions. Deep hole mode: a single blue laser line reaches into narrow grooves and holes that crossed-laser patterns can't resolve. Artec Point vs. Artec Point II Point II is a same-price, drop-in successor. If you know the original Point, here is exactly what changed and what didn't: Artec Point Artec Point II Laser lines, ultra-fast mode (crossed) 34 54 Laser lines, hyper-fine mode (parallel) 7 17 Data capture rate Up to 2.8M points/s Up to 5.8M points/s Certified accuracy 0.02 mm (0.0008 in) 0.02 mm (0.0008 in) Frame rate 120 FPS 120 FPS Scanning modes 3 (ultra-fast, hyper-fine, single-laser) 3 (same) Weight 570 g (1.3 lbs) 570 g (1.3 lbs) Dust protection IP50 IP50 Software Artec Studio Artec Studio Existing Point scanners remain fully supported by Artec, including warranty, spare parts, and Artec Studio updates. See the Artec Point II in action Powered by Artec Studio Point II is fully supported in the current version of Artec Studio 20.5, with no software update to wait for. Artec Studio turns raw scans into ultra-high-precision, ready-to-use results: Scan to mesh in seconds Real-time Fusion builds a usable mesh as you scan, while a color-coded 3D Radar shows exactly what has been captured so you can adjust on the fly. Built-in inspection tools Compare scans against CAD with the 3D Compare Map, run native Tolerance Checking, and uncover defects without leaving Artec Studio. One-click export to advanced tools Send data directly to Geomagic Control X or PolyWorks|Inspector for full GD&T inspection workflows, or export CAD-ready STEP, IGES, and X_T files. 3DMakerWorld carries both inspection platforms if you need to pair one with your scanner. Multi-scanner workflows Merge Point II data with scans from other Artec scanners, such as the Leo or Spider II, to build large, highly detailed models using the best resolution from each device. Applications Quality control: verify product batches against tolerances before parts are installed or shipped. Reverse engineering: capture exact geometry for CAD conversion, comparison, or remanufacture. Retrofitting: digitize parts no longer in circulation and bring them back into modern production. Aftermarket parts: design components like custom automotive panels that fit existing geometry perfectly. MRO: digitize damaged parts to find defects and out-of-tolerance geometry, then repair with confidence. Industries Point II is best suited to automotive (hoods, door panels, spoilers, interiors), aerospace (shiny airfoil surfaces held to ultra-fine tolerances), manufacturing (high-speed, non-contact quality inspection for machining, molding, and casting), heavy industry (from small bolts to iron castings), mold-making (hyper-fine evaluation of mold geometry before production), and energy (inspection of fitted parts such as piston heads and pipework).

Point II upgrades the laser projection system: 54 laser lines in ultra-fast mode (up from 34), 17 parallel lines in hyper-fine mode (up from 7), and up to 5.8 million measurements per second, more than double the original Point. Accuracy, scanning modes, weight, software, and workflow are unchanged, so existing demos, training, and product knowledge carry over directly. Does the Artec Point II require targets? Yes. Point II is a target-based scanner: you apply reference targets to the object or scene for best results, which is standard practice for metrology-grade laser scanners in this class. If you need target-free scanning, look at the Artec Leo or Spider II, both of which pair well with Point II in combined workflows. How do the three scanning modes work? You switch modes at the click of a button. Ultra-fast mode uses 54 crossed lasers to capture large objects quickly with a manageable polygon count. Hyper-fine mode uses 17 parallel lasers for high-resolution capture of fine details like engraved features. Deep hole mode uses a single laser line to reach narrow grooves and holes. What software does the Artec Point II use? Artec Studio, the same software used across the Artec scanner line. Point II is fully supported in Artec Studio 20.5. For advanced inspection, data exports in one click to Geomagic Control X or PolyWorks|Inspector, both available from 3DMakerWorld. Can I combine Point II data with other Artec scanners? Yes. Scans from Point II can be merged in Artec Studio with data from other Artec scanners, letting you build large, detailed models that use the best resolution each device offers.
