Metrology-grade accuracy for small parts

Expect top-quality data with a point accuracy of up to 5 microns, making Micro II the most ideal of 3D scanners for high-level reverse engineering and quality inspection of small and tiny parts. Everything you scan, captured in crystal-clear quality!

Scan anything you can hold (and under)

From tiny items that you can hold between two fingers up to those that sit in the palm of your hand (200 × 200 × 150 mm), Micro II gets right to work straight from your desktop, demanding little from you and absolutely no targets used for your scans.

Fast & easy

3D scanning in just one click

Prioritize your time with a one-click workflow. Powered by smart algorithms in Artec Studio, the scanner automatically positions your object to follow the ideal scanning trajectory. This ensures your object is thoroughly scanned from all sides, and in minimal time.

Data capture at lightning speed

With 1,000,000 calculations made per second, your 3D scanner captures and processes more than 140 million image points per second.

Full coverage for every detail

4 × 13 MPX cameras

The Micro II is equipped with four high-resolution cameras, and is capable of scanning sharp edges and miniscule details – just what you need for the 3D scanning of small objects.

Deep view

Get deeper into the nooks of your object with the scanner’s quad-cam scanning technique: four specially positioned 13 MPX cameras to capture hard-to-see areas for high-level digitization.

Full color

Scan your objects in full color with Micro II. For hyper-realistic 3D models, add color from high-res photos using Artec Studio’s photo texturing feature.

Seamless workflow

Unbeatable with Artec Studio

Artec Studio makes this seamless 3D scanning process even easier. Once your 3D scan data is captured, you can quickly and easily inspect and reverse engineer right in AS, or easily export for further reports or inspection.

Scan-to-CAD export

Upload to Artec Studio to precisely position and fit your scans with CAD primitives, then export to SOLIDWORKS or other CAD software – or for inspection, directly to Control X for in-depth reports.

Applications

Reverse engineering small objects

If you have a small or tiny part that is a legacy piece with no ready-made replacement, or requires any modification, Micro II has you sorted. Reverse engineer exactly what you need, right on your desktop.

Quality inspection

Whatever industry you work in, QI is likely an important part of your process. Let Micro II do the heavy lifting when scanning objects for quality control, with assurance of extremely high accuracy in every detail you capture.

Forensics

When working in a crime scene or capturing data from evidence, accuracy is as essential as speed is. With Micro II, you’ll be able to quickly digitize essential pieces of evidence such as bullets or pieces of debris for documentation, analysis, or presenting in court.

Jewelry

Customized jewelry is never made as a second thought – it’s a process that requires high attention to detail, and where every tiny detail counts. With Micro II, much of the work is done for you at the click of a button, leaving you to focus your efforts on other tasks in your process.

Archeology & paleontology

The Micro II allows you to quickly and easily digitize specific pieces or entire collections, in high accuracy and great detail, to create the 3D models you need for preservation, research, digitization, and restoration.

Design

Whether you need to digitize something you created, capture a part for inclusion in a larger design, or focus on fine details, Micro II has you covered when scanning small objects, and at lightning speed and utmost precision.

Dentistry

When it comes to applications that require as much care or customization as dentistry, leave nothing to chance – Micro II is designed to ensure every part of your product is precisely what you need it to be.

FAQ

Does Artec Micro II have a fully automatic mode?

Yes. You can choose the automatic scanning path in the software settings before starting a scan, and let the scanner choose the optimal trajectory and number of frames needed to fully capture the object.

What is the size limit of objects that can be scanned with Micro II?

We recommend scanning objects that are up to 200 × 200 × 150 mm and 2 kg (4.4 lb) in size. Examples of objects suitable for scanning with the Micro II are engine valves, electrical connectors, watch gears and parts, jewelry, etc.

What are the best applications for Artec Micro II?

Artec Micro II is the best 3D scanner for reverse engineering, quality control, inspection, dentistry, jewelry, design, and any other area where you need a 3D scanner for small objects with ultra-high accuracy.

What are the repeatability results for separate scans of the same object?

Repeatability is a key characteristic for inspection, and the Micro II provides excellent results in this area. While factors such as material and surface finish of the object may slightly affect noise levels, the Micro II generally provides 2-micron repeatability.
