FARO Focus3D X 330 Laser Scanner
The Faro X330 Focus 3D is a compact long range terrestrial laser scanner built for outdoor 3D documentation and land surveying. It can measure objects up to 330 m away even in direct sunlight with a range about three times that of earlier Focus3D models. An integrated GPS receiver helps correlate individual scans in post processing which is useful for survey based projects and a Class 1 eye safe laser keeps operation straightforward.
Key Features
- Extra-long range: 0.6 m to 330 m indoors or outdoors with upright incidence to a 90% reflective surface
- High measurement speed: up to 976,000 points per second
- Precise measurements: ranging error of ±2 mm
- Reduced noise: improved scan quality with a reported noise reduction of about 50%, for clean realistic 3D models
- Wide field of view: 360° horizontal and 300° vertical
- Integrated color camera: colorizes the point cloud with the HDR version offering up to 165 megapixel capture and 3x/5x HDR photo recording
- Multi-sensor package: integrated GPS, compass height sensor and dual axis compensator for faster registration and leveled scans
- Eye-safe Class 1 laser: 1550 nm wavelength
- Works in direct sunlight: designed for outdoor use
- Touchscreen and WLAN control: operate it directly on the device or from a remote device
- SD card storage: saves point clouds and images with simple transfer to a computer
- Flexible power: an internal battery with about 4.5 hours of operation or an external power supply
- Compact and lightweight: about 5.2 kg (11.5 lb) measuring 240 × 200 × 100 mm
Typical Applications
- Land surveying and topographic documentation
- Civil engineering and infrastructure projects
- Large part and facility inspection
- Accident reconstruction and forensics
- Asset and facility management
- Architecture heritage recording and as built documentation
Why Choose It
The Faro X330 gives surveyors and documentation teams long range high speed 3D capture in a package one person can carry. GPS, compass, and compensator data make registration quicker and the long reach reduces the number of scan positions needed on large outdoor sites.
