SCANOLOGY ZENITH OPTICAL 3D SCANNING SYSTEM

TrackScan Sharp-Z

Ultra-Long-Range Wireless Optical Tracking 3D Scanner

The SCANOLOGY TrackScan Sharp-Z is engineered for high-precision measurement of large and extra-large industrial components using advanced optical tracking technology.

With up to 12 meters of tracking distance, automatic 360° self-tracking, 162 laser lines and measurement rates up to 10 million measurements per second, Sharp-Z brings high-performance metrology directly to the production floor or field.

Measure Extra-Large Components From a Single Station

TrackScan Sharp-Z uses a 50 MP industrial camera with extended depth of field and dynamic adaptive LED technology to provide long-range scanner recognition and tracking.

With a maximum tracking distance of 12 meters, Sharp-Z dramatically reduces the number of times the tracking system must be moved while measuring large structures.

The system can cover a fixed single-station measurement volume of up to 600 m³, making it particularly well suited for aircraft structures, heavy machinery, commercial vehicles and large tooling.

FULLY SELF TRACKING

The Tracker Automatically Follows the Scanner

TrackScan Sharp-Z uses a dynamic rotary platform that automatically rotates the tracker as the operator moves around the component.

This helps maintain an optimal optical tracking field of view without requiring another technician to continually reposition the tracking system.

For large-component measurement, fewer tracker moves can also mean fewer interruptions and alignment operations.

HIGH-SPEED INDUSTRIAL SCANNING

Up to 10 Million Measurements Per Second

TrackScan Sharp-Z combines SCANOLOGY's Quad-Cross blue-laser technology with high-speed imaging and edge computing.

The scanner can capture up to 10,000,000 measurements per second at frame rates reaching 200 FPS.

Its scanning area reaches up to 800 × 700 mm, allowing large surfaces to be captured efficiently while preserving fine geometric detail.

FOUR SCANNING MODES

One Scanner for Different Measurement Challenges

Dedicated laser configurations allow TrackScan Sharp-Z to move between fast large-surface capture, high-detail features, recessed geometry and extended-depth measurement.

Ultra-Fast Scanning

140 blue laser lines arranged in a 4 × 35 Quad-Cross configuration for rapid measurement of large surfaces.

Hyperfine Scanning

21 parallel blue laser lines for precision surfaces and detailed geometry.

Deep-Hole Scanning

A dedicated single blue laser line helps capture recessed geometry, holes and pockets.

Extended-Depth Scanning

Extended depth-of-field scanning provides additional flexibility for oversized components and varying surfaces.

DUAL-SCREEN INTERACTION

Critical Information Right at the Measurement Area

Built-in displays on both the TrackScan Sharp-Z scanner and tracker provide real-time visibility of system status, calibration information and measurement conditions.

Instead of repeatedly returning to the computer, operators can see important information directly on the hardware while working around the component.

Three programmable buttons also provide quick access to frequently used functions.
