Adaptive modes for every surface
Change between three modes for best results – a high-speed grid, parallel lasers for complex geometry capture, and a single laser for obscure geometries like deep holes.
Magnify for a closer look
Zoom in to view surfaces up to 8x more closely for complete scan coverage that picks up tiny details that may not be visible upon first glance.
Wide field of view
The Artec Point 3D laser scanner features a vast scanning area that allows it to capture larger objects while keeping targets in view for seamless, high-speed 3D scanning.
Metrology-grade results verified through testing
Every unit undergoes rigorous setup, calibration, and performance testing at an ISO-accredited lab, purpose-built for industrial metrology.
ISO-certified, lab-tested 3D laser scanner

With an intuitive interface and unshakable tracking, Artec Point II ensures that you get repeatable results regardless of operator skill, without having to fine-tune any settings.
Capture in confined areas
Lightweight and ergonomic, Artec Point II goes where other scanners can’t. Benefit from one-handed use: tilt it to scan under, behind, or into seemingly unreachable areas.
Robust build quality
A secure-grip metal casing keeps Artec Point II running in demanding industrial environments where durability isn’t optional.
Reliable performance in any environment
Artec Point II maintains accuracy across a −10 to 40 °C range, while IP50 protection adds durability for consistent operation in challenging environments.
Built for long scanning sessions
An efficient cooling system ensures stable performance throughout high-duty sessions, while low power consumption keeps Artec Point II running economically.

Adapt to different surfaces in a single click
Artec Point II’s three modes allow you to switch between scanning large objects at pace, capturing intricate details, and digitizing deep holes, at the click of a button.
54 laser lines reconstruct large objects fast, keeping polygon count low for lightweight, easily manageable 3D models.
17 parallel lasers capture complex surfaces in high resolution, picking up fine details such as engraved features for advanced metrology applications.
A single laser reaches hard-to-access areas, including deep grooves and holes, collecting all necessary data – ideal for quality inspection and reverse engineering.
Artec Studio
Artec Studio’s advanced algorithms turn Artec Point II scans into ultra-high-precision, ready-to-use results – fast.
Real-time feedback as you scan
A color-coded 3D Radar shows exactly what’s being captured, helping you adjust positioning on the fly for complete, optimal surface coverage.
Built-in inspection tools
Divide scans into sections, uncover defects with Artec Studio’s 3D Compare Map, and confirm products meet manufacturing specifications with native Tolerance Checking.
Check against CAD instantly
Clean up meshes and auto-surface CAD bodies, then inspect deviations without leaving the tab, with no third-party software or extra steps needed.
One software, multiple tools
Reverse engineering and inspection essentials all in one software suite – export data directly to Geomagic Control X or PolyWorks Inspector in a single click for advanced use cases.
User-empowering UI
A dedicated Artec Point II UI streamlines the entire scanning process, making tricky captures quick and effortless, while reducing human error.
From scan to mesh – in seconds
With the Real-time Fusion algorithm, go from scan to usable mesh in seconds: less time processing data, more time comparing parts against CAD models or tolerances.
Purpose-built processing
Artec Studio automatically fills gaps, eliminates noise, and preserves deep grooves and sharp edges, while offering manual parameter tuning for high-tolerance inspection when needed.
Combine datasets for multi-scale accuracy
Merge Artec Point II data with scans from other Artec 3D scanners to build large, highly detailed digital twins, leveraging the best resolution each device offers.

Applications
Quality control
Go through product batches with a fine-tooth comb to ensure they meet desired tolerances and quality standards before they’re installed or shipped to customers.
Reverse engineering
Accuracy is a cornerstone of effective reverse engineering – capture exact geometric representations for comparison, or turning into duplicates for iteration.
Retrofitting
Capture parts no longer in circulation, convert to CAD, and remanufacture for modern applications – making improvements as you see fit.
Creating aftermarket parts
Design new parts like custom automotive hoods that fit perfectly onto existing geometries with a submillimeter-accurate 3D scanner.
Maintenance, repair, and overhaul
Digitize damaged parts with high accuracy to find defects, uncover out-of-tolerance geometries, and carry out repairs that keep assemblies and workflows operating.
Inspection at any scale
Ensure that any small-to-medium-sized product will perform as desired. Whether in small batches or at an industrial scale, Artec Point II is ideal for checking parts in fine detail.
Industries
With metrology-grade accuracy and a lightweight, versatile design, the Artec Point II 3D scanner can be applied across industries, but it’s best suited to the following:
Automotive
Agile, lightweight, ultra-accurate 3D scanning is the perfect mix for capturing everything from vehicle hoods, door panels, and spoilers, to tricky-to-navigate interiors.
Aerospace
Meeting ultra-fine tolerances can be tricky at the best of times. Artec Point II is fast, easy to pick up, and delivers outstanding accuracy for capturing tricky, shiny airfoil surfaces.
Manufacturing
No matter which technology you use – machining, injection molding, casting or something else entirely, the Artec Point II 3D scanner is an excellent high-speed, non-contact QI solution.
Heavy industry
Even when it comes to capturing large, heavy-duty objects, Artec Point II is up to the challenge. Accurately digitize anything from tiny bolts to iron castings with ease.
Mold-making
Non-compliant molds will only yield sub-par parts. Activate Artec Point II’s hyper-fine scanning mode to closely evaluate their geometries before entering full production.
Energy
Whether it be piston heads or pipes in offshore networks, Artec Point II is perfect for inspecting fitted parts in the energy sector to see if they need repairing or replacing.
FAQ
-
Does the Artec Point II 3D laser scanner require targets?
Yes, Artec Point II is a target 3D scanner. This means that users will need to attach targets to any object they wish to capture for best results. But after calibration the process is the same as other Artec 3D scanners – simply capture and process scan data on Artec Studio.
-
How do Artec Point II’s scanning modes work?
You can switch between Artec Point II’s three modes at the click of a button. Ultra-fast scanning quickly captures large objects in less detail, Hyper-fine scanning offers higher resolution for tricky-to-scan surfaces, while Hole scanning is ideal for digitizing narrow geometries.
-
Can I pair Artec Point II with other Artec 3D scanners?
Absolutely! Data captured with Artec 3D scanners (including Artec Point II) can be combined into incredibly detailed models formed using the highest-resolution data from each device.
