Ultra-High-Resolution Handheld Scanning
Artec Spider II is a handheld, high-resolution 3D scanner for capturing small objects and the fine details of larger industrial parts in full color. Blue-light structured-light capture delivers up to 0.05 mm resolution and accuracy, with no targets and no contact with the object.
It's built for reverse engineering, quality inspection, scan-to-CAD, digital twins, product development, and documentation across manufacturing, automotive, healthcare, forensics, and art and design.
Fine Detail, Fast Capture
Resolution and speed in a lightweight, portable body.
Up to 0.05 mm Accuracy
Up to 0.05 mm resolution and accuracy, with 3D accuracy over distance of up to 0.05 mm + 0.3 mm/m.
30 FPS, 8 Million Points/s
Up to 30 fps real-time fusion and up to 8 million points per second of data acquisition.
Target-Free & Contact-Free
No targets to apply and no contact with the object saves setup time and suits medical, forensic, and restricted settings.
