    BuildIT Metrology Features

    • Model-Based Definition (MBD)
      Work seamlessly with industry-standard CAD formats and assembly-level data, including Product Manufacturing Information (PMI). Preserve full tree hierarchy and object names from original CAD models, while smart search and CAD editing tools make model preparation for inspection fast, flexible, and efficient.
    • Streamlined Workflows with Focus Laser Scanner
      Import and register multiple scans in a single platform with automatic target recognition (spheres, checkerboards) or cloud-to-cloud registration. Trigger scans wirelessly from multiple Focus units and transfer data live for highly flexible, automated scanning workflows that boost throughput.
    • Hardware Compatibility
      Integrate BuildIT Metrology with FARO and third-party devices, including portable CMMs, 3D scanners, laser trackers, measurement arms, optical 3D imagers, laser projectors, total stations, and robotics via the automation module. Combine tools like a FARO Vantage Laser Tracker, ScanArm, or Focus Laser Scanner for detailed inspections of large objects.
    • Universal Interface
      Operate BuildIT Metrology intuitively, requiring minimal training.
