New CAM2 Measure 10 Software for point cloud based inspection
CAM2 Measure 10 – the new measurement software for the FaroArm, FARO ScanArm and FARO Laser Tracker – provides the ability to scan and collect point cloud data for inspection, reverse engineering and rapid prototyping. With CAM2 Measure 10, FARO offers for the first time a solution that incorporates measurement by traditional probing methods, scanning and point cloud capture.
CAM2 Measure 10 new features also include:
Live Colour Scan: This highlights deviations from CAD during the scanning process to help identify inconsistencies quickly and expedite the scanning process. Live Colour Scan allows inspection of free form parts with the FARO ScanArm more quickly and easily than ever before.
Shortcuts: This feature enables users to record steps in a measurement process and then combines them into a single command to be accessed later: it’s possible to easily obtain measurement data that previously may have only been available through a series of complex operations.
Easy Move Wizard simplifies measurement of large parts, particularly when frequent repositioning is a necessity. By enabling quick identification of correct target correspondence, the time required to relocate (“leapfrog”) the FaroArm is reduced and the potential for user error is mitigated.

Webinar: FaroArm and PolyWorks, a powerful combination for quality inspection, 7th April
Webinar: FaroArm and PolyWorks, a powerful combination for quality inspection, 7th April
As the European partner of InnovMetric Inc., Duwe-3d is pleased to introduce to you the functionalities of PolyWorks, the universal 3D-metrology platform on April 7th. Offering Plug-Ins for the FARO Laser ScanArm as well as for FARO Laser Trackers and TrackArm combinations, PolyWorks equips you with all the capabilities you need to master today’s metrology tasks. You will have the chance to get a quick overview of the versatile analysis options in PolyWorks using probing and scanning data.
The aim of the webinar will be to make you familiar with the basic functionalities such as feature inspection from probing sessions and scanned point clouds. Furthermore you will be shown the easy and convenient workflow for the change of device positions – also auxiliary for the use of several devices during one session.
Webinar: SpatialAnalyzer, a software for every application and every instrument, 8th March
FARO webinar - SpatialAnalyzer
On March 8th you will have the chance to see the latest in SpatialAnalyzer’s metrology solutions for every application. It offers the simple tools for the everyday jobs and in depth suite of capabilities you need to tackle the tough jobs. It interfaces to every FARO instrument simultaneously and makes it easy to get the results you need quickly. The depth of the SA architecture and graphics provides the traceability needed to validate the results under the most rigorous tests.
FARO @ EuroMold, Frankfurt (Germany)
FARO will have a booth at EuroMold at Frankfurt (Germany) from 1st – 4th December 2010. We will show our portable 3D measuring machines which are ideal for tool & mould making applications.
FARO Releases a new software update: CAM2 Q 1.5
FARO, the world’s leading provider of portable measurement and imaging solution has just released version 1.5 of its CAM2 Q software.
CAM2 Q is FARO’s 3D measurement software solution that enables customers to complete measurement jobs quickly and reliably while providing freedom to measure as is required by the application. It is Solid Measurement Made Simple.
This version of the software contains a new set of features that not only enhance the the capabilities of CAM2 Q but also, more importantly, simplify the measurement process for all users:
Immediate measurement capability: Measuring with CAM2 Q was easy and has now become much easier. Measurements can be taken anytime and CAM2 Q 1.5 will record them.
Unleash the Laser Tracker!: The potential of the Laser Tracker can be futher exploited with new features like: Bundle Adjustment, TrackArm capabilities and qTouch, the new iPhone/iPod Touch application for remote control of FARO devices.
CAM2 compatibility: SoftCheckTools programs from earlier versions of CAM2 software can now be imported and run within CAM2 Q.
For more information, please visit the CAM2 Q microsite. Trial versions can be requested from the Downloads section of the site.
Quality on Tour 2010 – How portable measurement systems improve quality control
FARO is organising a European series of seminars called ‘Quality on Tour’ this autumn. The aim is to educate the participants on quality control topics. The seminars are carried out in conjunction with universities and measurement experts.
The seminar Quality on Tour consists of two days and features the topics ‘Portable measurement technology, articulated arm Coordinate Measuring Machines and laser scanners’ as well as ‘Measuring large volumes and laser trackers’. During the mornings participants will hear theoretical introductions to measurement systems, how they work and where they can be employed. In the afternoons participants will have the opportunity to test and deepen their newly gained knowledge in workshops.
The Quality on Tour seminars are taking place in October and November in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, Germany, Austria, France and Italy. The UK event will take place on 16th and 17th November at Warwick University in Coventry.

FARO France @ MIDEST Show 2010
FARO will be exhibiting at the MIDEST Show which will be taking place from 2nd to 5th November at the Exhibition Centre in Villepinte (near Paris). The MIDESt fair is the world’s largest show exclusively dedicated to industrial subcontracting and face to face meetings. FARO will display its whole range of 3D measuring systems, including the whole new FARO Laser Scanner Focus3D.
Objective – Leadership in Innovation
FARO has successfully combined three tried-and-tested measuring systems in the Track ScanArm. The mobile measuring system is particularly impressive in the measurement of entire vehicles, not least as a result of its efficiency.
The BMW Group relies on the latest, state-of-the-art technologies, in particular in development and production. In this context, the Track ScanArm from FARO, which is used at the plants in Dingolfing and Regensburg (both in Germany), represents an equally clever and mobile measuring system in Geometric Integration measuring technology.
Webinar: Efficient CAD to Part Measurement with CAM2 Q, 21st September
We invite you to join our webinar: “Efficient CAD to Part Measurement with CAM2 Q” on Tuesday, 21st September at 02:00PM (GMT).
The webinar will consist of a live demonstration of CAM2 Q showing its efficiency in the measurement of parts against a CAD model. The live demonstration will focus on the following elements of the measurement process:
• Importing / viewing of CAD files
• Performing a CAD to part alignment
• Measuring prismatic features
• Measuring points on CAD surfaces
• Performing part dimensioning
• Building a report
