The HandySCAN 3D MAX Series is designed to bring portable, metrology-grade 3D scanning to large and complex aerospace components. The next-generation HandySCAN MAX EVO and HandySCAN MAX EVO Elite extend the EVO platform to large-part measurement, covering quality control, quality assurance, maintenance, repair and overhaul, and non-destructive testing workflows.
The MAX EVO is aimed at aerospace product development teams, with volumetric accuracy of 0.150 mm + 0.020 mm/m. It is portable, so measurements can be taken where aircraft structures and components are developed, inspected or maintained, rather than only at fixed metrology stations. The system is described as suitable for a broad range of part sizes, complex geometries and difficult surfaces, including highly reflective materials without surface preparation. That could reduce setup and disassembly work on fuselage sections, wings and structural assemblies.
The MAX EVO Elite is positioned for quality inspection and NDT work that needs higher precision, with volumetric accuracy of 0.075 mm + 0.010 mm/m. The MAX Series is stated to maintain measurement reliability and accredited accuracy under ISO 17025 and VDI/VDE 2634. Integrated photogrammetry is intended to support accurate measurement of large, complex parts outside controlled environments, including hangar-floor maintenance inspections where aircraft downtime must be limited.
With the Mobility Kit, the MAX Series enables wireless, cable-free inspection for daily quality control. The EVO platform also includes an embedded screen for scanner control and real-time data visualization. Keeping scan data and the physical part in the operator's line of sight is intended to make complex, elevated and overhead scanning more comfortable, while real-time mesh visualization lets operators check coverage before leaving the part. The combination is positioned to support faster scan-to-report work in hangars and other real-world environments.
