Photogrammetry Workflow

How MSCAN-L15 Works

MSCAN-L15 measures reference targets distributed across the component to establish an accurate three-dimensional coordinate framework. The resulting marker positions can then be used during 3D scanning to improve large-volume measurement accuracy.

1

Place Reference Targets

Apply coded and reference markers across the large component or measurement area.

2

Capture Photogrammetry

Move around the component while MSCAN-L15 photographs the reference network from multiple positions.

3

Calculate Marker Positions

The system calculates the three-dimensional marker coordinates and displays the results in real time.

4

Perform 3D Scanning

Use compatible 3D scanner data with the photogrammetric reference network for improved volumetric measurement accuracy.

Large-Volume Measurement

From Rail Vehicles to Large Industrial Assemblies

Large components can be difficult to measure accurately using a portable 3D scanner alone because small measurement errors can accumulate as the measurement volume grows.

MSCAN-L15 provides a high-accuracy reference framework across the component, helping maintain dimensional consistency from one end of the object to the other.

Ideal Size Range:
MSCAN-L15 is particularly suited for projects and components in the approximately 2 to 10 meter size range.

Unique HDR Mode

Reliable Measurement Across Changing Environments

Industrial measurement does not always happen in a controlled metrology lab.

MSCAN-L15 supports HDR imaging to improve adaptability across different lighting environments. Its integrated blue LED lighting helps support precise target recognition and measurement.

This makes MSCAN-L15 useful for both controlled inspection environments and field measurement applications.

Deformation Detection

Understand How Large Components Change

MSCAN-L15 can be used to capture precise reference measurements of large parts and structures, allowing engineers to analyze deformation, movement and dimensional change.

Before & After Comparison

Document a component before and after loading, manufacturing, installation or service to evaluate dimensional change.

CAD Comparison

Combine photogrammetry and 3D scanning data to compare large components against nominal CAD geometry.

Deviation Analysis

Generate intuitive deviation results to help identify distortion, movement and dimensional differences.

Multi-Adaptor Measurement

Measure Key Features Directly

MSCAN-L15 can use different measurement adaptors to inspect important geometric features and positions on large industrial components.

Hole Centers

Measure and document the three-dimensional location of critical hole centers across large assemblies.

Axial Distance

Inspect cylindrical axial relationships and dimensional positions using dedicated adaptors.

Key Reference Points

Capture specific geometric reference locations that may be difficult to measure using surface scanning alone.

Why Add Photogrammetry?

Large Parts Require Large-Volume Accuracy

Handheld 3D scanners can deliver excellent local accuracy, but photogrammetry adds a highly accurate global reference structure across very large measurement volumes.
