Artec Point
Metrology-Grade Precision in the Palm of Your Hand
High-Speed, Target-Based Industrial Inspection
The Artec Point marks a major milestone as Artec 3D's very first target-based handheld laser scanner, engineered to bring uncompromising, ISO-certified precision directly to your shop floor. Developed specifically for advanced industrial metrology, reverse engineering, and stringent quality control, this scanner makes quick work of highly complex geometries, easily capturing notoriously difficult black, high-gloss, or reflective surfaces without requiring messy developer sprays.
Operating natively withing the Artec Studio ecosystem, the Point combines the lightweight freedom of a handhelf tool with the authoritative data certainty needed to verify tight tolerances in demanding fields like aerospace, defense, and automotive manufacturing.
Features
Three Adaptable Laser modes
Instantly switch between a 17 crossed-laser grid for rapid coverage, 7 parallel lines for fine textures, or a single isolated laser line to capture deep holes and hard-to-reach pockets.
0.02 MM Metrology Accuracy
Delivers highly repeatable, industrial-grade precision fully certified under ISO 17025 and VDI/VDE 2634 standards for strict quality control and legal inspection compliance.
High-Speed 120 FPS Tracking
Tracks retro-reflective targets at an ultra-fast 120 frames per second, capturing up to 2.8 million measurements per second to prevent data gaps, even on shiny or pitch-black surfaces.

Software
Artec Studio
From Raw Scan To CAD
Artec Studio is the advanced software engine that transforms raw data into production-ready 3D models. It simplifies data processing with an automated Autopilot mode for quick, guided workflows, while leveraging a powerful AI-driven HD Mode to eliminate scan noise, resolve sharp edges, and dramatically enhance mesh resolution across supported hardware. Beyond simply processing meshes, the software features built-in Scan-to-CAD tools for fitting geometric primitives, basic metrology for full-color deviation heat mapping, and seamless direct exports to industry-standard engineering platforms like SOLIDWORKS, and Geomagic Design X, effectively bridging the gap between your physical object and an editable CAD environment.
Frequently Asked Questions
To handle real-time 120 FPS data reconstruction, Artec recommends a Windows 10/11 computer with an Intel processor featuring at least 8 cores (16 threads, 2.6 GHz or faster), 64 GB of RAM, and a dedicated GPU with at least 8 GB of VRAM. The absolute minimum setup requires 32 GM of RAM and a 4 GB VRAM GPU.
