Artec Micro II - Fast & easy

3D scanning in just one click

Prioritize your time with a one-click workflow. Powered by smart algorithms in Artec Studio, the scanner automatically positions your object to follow the ideal scanning trajectory. This ensures your object is thoroughly scanned from all sides, and in minimal time.

Data capture at lightning speed

With 1,000,000 calculations made per second, your 3D scanner captures and processes more than 140 million image points per second.

Artec Micro II - Applications

Reverse engineering small objects

If you have a small or tiny part that is a legacy piece with no ready-made replacement, or requires any modification, Micro II has you sorted. Reverse engineer exactly what you need, right on your desktop.

Quality inspection

Whatever industry you work in, QI is likely an important part of your process. Let Micro II do the heavy lifting when scanning objects for quality control, with assurance of extremely high accuracy in every detail you capture.

Forensics

When working in a crime scene or capturing data from evidence, accuracy is as essential as speed is. With Micro II, you’ll be able to quickly digitize essential pieces of evidence such as bullets or pieces of debris for documentation, analysis, or presenting in court.

 

Jewelry

Customized jewelry is never made as a second thought – it’s a process that requires high attention to detail, and where every tiny detail counts. With Micro II, much of the work is done for you at the click of a button, leaving you to focus your efforts on other tasks in your process.

Archeology & paleontology

The Micro II allows you to quickly and easily digitize specific pieces or entire collections, in high accuracy and great detail, to create the 3D models you need for preservation, research, digitization, and restoration.

 

Design

Whether you need to digitize something you created, capture a part for inclusion in a larger design, or focus on fine details, Micro II has you covered when scanning small objects, and at lightning speed and utmost precision.

Dentistry

When it comes to applications that require as much care or customization as dentistry, leave nothing to chance – Micro II is designed to ensure every part of your product is precisely what you need it to be.

Artec Micro II - FAQ

Yes. You can choose the automatic scanning path in the software settings before starting a scan, and let the scanner choose the optimal trajectory and number of frames needed to fully capture the object.

We recommend scanning objects that are up to 200 × 200 × 150 mm and 2 kg (4.4 lb) in size. Examples of objects suitable for scanning with the Micro are engine valves, electrical connectors, watch gears and parts, jewelry, etc.

Artec Micro is the best 3D scanner for reverse engineering, quality control, inspection, dentistry, jewelry, design, and any other area where you need a 3D scanner for small objects with ultra-high accuracy.

Repeatability is a key characteristic for inspection, and the Micro II provides excellent results in this area. While factors such as material and surface finish of the object may slightly affect noise levels, the Micro II generally provides 2-micron repeatability.
