LMI Gocator 3500 Review Summary
Laser profilers need the part or the sensor to move. A snapshot sensor does not: it projects structured light and captures a whole area in 3D while the part stands still, which suits stop-and-go lines and robots that pause over a feature. The 3500 series does this at metrology level, with two cameras to reduce hidden areas and accuracy from 12 µm on the small 3506. The rate of 6 Hz requires a PC or LMI's GoMax NX accelerator.
Pros
Full-area 3D without motion
5-megapixel stereo camera
Accuracy from 12 µm
Suitable for robot mounting
Measurement tools from the Gocator family
Cons
6 Hz requires a PC or accelerator
Only two models
Who It Is For
The series fits manufacturers who inspect stationary parts or use a robot to bring the sensor to several features on an assembly.
