LAKE MARY, Florida, Nov. 25, 2020 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

--Highest-accuracy portable inspection tool faster and easier to use--

FARO(R) Technologies, Inc. (Nasdaq: FARO), a global leader for 3D Metrology,

AEC (Architecture, Engineering & Construction), and Public Safety Analytics,

today announced its next generation Vantage Laser Tracker 6 Degrees of Freedom

(6DoF) Probe. The new 6Probe offers exceptional portability and is compatible

with FARO VantageS6 and VantageE6 Laser Trackers, enabling users to build,

inspect and measure products faster and with greater accuracy.

The 6Probe is a cost-effective 6DoF solution that meets the dynamic

measurement, speed, and accuracy requirements of the most challenging

industrial applications. With kinematic self-identifying styli, users can now

change probing tips quickly and measure without any recalibration and also

measure hidden areas outside of the tracker's line of sight, with wider

acceptance angles. The result is an advanced tool upgrade designed to enhance

productivity and efficiency. In fact, the typical user of the new 6Probe can

now save at least 30 minutes of time on any given workday.

"The next generation Vantage Laser Tracker 6DoF Probe extends maximum

measurement consistency and reliability in a variety of working environments,

delivering best-in-class performance through faster and easier probing than

previous models," said Leo Martinez, FARO Product Marketing Manager. "With

Super 6DoF and conventional 6DoF probing, FARO offers the industry's most

comprehensive 6DoF solutions available."

6DoF and standard probing are enhanced by FARO ActiveSeek(TM), a feature to

automatically locate and follow the active target. FARO trackers support the

patented Super 6DoF TrackArm solution, which allows the Vantage and one or more

FARO ScanArms to work together to create an integrated contact and noncontact

3D measurement system for large-volume measurement. With a range of up to 60

meters (with a 4-meter reach), Super 6DoF eliminates line-of-sight challenges

and expands measurement range while maintaining superior accuracy.

The Vantage platforms offer comprehensive, large-volume 3D measurement up to 80

meters, significantly streamlining processes and reducing inspection cycle

times while ensuring complete confidence in the results. The Laser Trackers

maximize 6DoF measurement capabilities via the optional 6Probe, enabling

precise measurement of hidden areas and small features.
