Roland - LPX250 3D Plane and Rotary Scanner

The LPX-250 has revolutionized 3D laser scanning. Combining both rotary and plane scanning, the LPX-250 comes complete with powerful software and the lowest price in the industry. The LPX-250 lets engineers, animators and game developers digitize objects economically and accurately on their desktop. It gives them total control of the scanning process and spells an end to lengthy turnaround times and high prices associated with outsourcing.

• Price-performance breakthrough
• Plane scanning captures side cuts and cavities at up to 0.008 inches Resolution
• Rotary scanning quickly scans entire objects at up to 1800 steps per revolution
• Fast and accurate non-contacting laser sensor
• Reverse-modeling software included
• 10-inch (diameter) by 16-inch (height) scanning volume

Dual Scan Modes
Rotary and Plane Scanning Modes offer the versatility to scan an expansive array of objects. In rotary mode, the LPX-250 quickly scans an entire object on its fully integrated rotating table. In plane scanning mode, it scans as many as six different planes to capture side cuts and cavities.

Rotary Scanning
Rotary Scanning Mode is ideal for high-speed scanning of spherical and smooth-surfaced objects. Once the object is placed on the LPX-250's rotating table, the laser beam travels vertically up the rotating object to generate a data file.

Plane Scanning
The Plane Scanning Mode is able to capture complicated angles and side-cuts. The LPX-250 laser beam scans a maximum of six surfaces at right angles. Plane Scanning is ideal for relatively flat, hollow and side-cut objects whose angles would be undetectable using Rotary Scanning Mode.

Easy Does It
The EasyScan function enables even beginners to successfully scan objects. Using PIX Form software and the Plane Scanning Mode, a single click transforms a 3D object into a four-surface scan. Once scanned, PIX Form can make a composite of all of the scanned images to create a single digital file. Adjusting the scanning pitch or mode enables users to create modified scans of the same object.

Non-Contact Scanning
The LPX-250 makes fast work of 3D scans. In fact, it can scan a 16 inches tall object in eight minutes. Scanned objects also remain in pristine condition, thanks to the LPX-250's non-contact laser scanning technology. Scanning restrictions are limited only to the technology itself: glossy, clear or dark-colored objects will not scan effectively unless painted red, white or yellow in order to be "read" by the laser.

Surface Editing Software
The bundled Pixform software allows LPX-250 users to decimate, edit and heal scanned data. One of the most powerful and unique features of the software is the ability to take a polygon solid and automatically convert it to a NURBS file. It can then be exported as an IGES file to industry standard MCAD software. Exportable formats include IGES, STL, DXF and VRML.
