Portable CMM

The FARO Gage is the industry’s first line of personal Coordinate Measuring Machines (CMMs). It is the 'mount-it-to-where-you-make-it', truly portable, cost-effective, 3D, minimal training gauge for machinists. The FARO Gage replaces all conventional gauging devices with an expandable library of gauging tools.

The fully portable FARO Gage was designed with the production floor in mind to speed through the toughest measurement challenges and produce the most accurate results available. Shop-hardened and temperature-compensated, the Gage allows anyone, anywhere to measure in 3D with previously unheard of precision.

Up to 0.018mm (0.0007”) accuracy*
1.2m (48”) working volume
Equipped with the Bluetooth technology

Laser scanner

FARO Laser Scanner Focus3D:

FARO Laser Scanner Focus3D is a revolutionary, high-performance 3D laser scanner for detailed measurement and documentation with intuitive touch screen control that makes it as easy to operate as a digital camera. It is four times lighter and five times smaller than its predecessor and is the smallest and lightest laser scanner ever built.

Focus3D uses laser technology to produce incredibly detailed three-dimensional images of complex environments and geometries in only a few minutes. The resulting image is an assembly of millions of 3D measurement points in colour which provides an exact digital reproduction of existing conditions.

The new FARO Laser Scanner Focus3D is suitable for documentation of large environments, quality control of components and reverse engineering. Thanks to its millimetre-accuracy and its 976,000 measurement points/second, the Focus3D offers the most efficient and precise method for measurement and 3D documentation of building construction, excavation volumes, facade and structural deformations, crime scenes, accident sites, product geometry, factories, process plants and more.

Laser Tracker ION

The FARO Laser Tracker ION is a high precision, portable coordinate measuring machine that enables you to build products, optimize processes, and deliver solutions by measuring more quickly, simply and precisely. Replacing
conventional hand tools such as tape measures, piano wire, plumb bobs, and even theodolites - the ION is a more accurate and reliable tool that allows you to streamline your processes and gain confidence in your measurement results.

FaroArm Fusion

If you want portable measurement and reverse engineering capabilities as well as flexible accuracy - the cost-effective FaroArm Fusion is the right choice.

With its high precision and low-cost it is the affordable solution for many measurement needs on the shop floor.
The FaroArm Fusion enables anyone, anywhere to inspect, reverse engineer or perform CAD-to-part-analysis on parts, fixtures and assemblies with remarkable accuracy.

FARO Laser ScanArm

The FARO Laser ScanArm is a unique solution on the market for measuring machines. It enables users to inspect parts in detail by capturing large point-cloud data. Its open architecture enables the user to employ Geomagic, PolyWorks, RapidForm and many other third-party software programmes.

The Laser ScanArm tackles all measurement tasks like inspection, point cloud-to-CAD comparison, rapid prototyping, reverse engineering, and 3D modelling. Its main benefits are the accurate scanning of reflective and dark objects - the biggest challenge for all scanning systems.

3D Scanner

A revolution in 3D laser scanning! Go3D!

The Focus3D is a high-speed 3D laser scanner for detailed measurement and documentation. The Focus3D uses laser technology to produce incredibly detailed three-dimensional images of complex environments and geometries in only a few minutes.

Efficient: The long range of up to 120m, the level sensor, the compactness and ease of use and the auto-registration at no extra cost result in up to 50% savings of scan and processing time compared to conventional laser scanners.
Precise and fast: The Focus3D creates a precise, virtual copy of reality in millimetre-accuracy at a blazing speed of up to 976,000 measurement points per second.

Economical: The price of the Focus3D is a revolution by itself. A 3D laser scanner has never been so affordable.
