FARO Vantage Laser Tracker Basic Specifications
The FARO® VantageS6 Max and VantageE6 Max Laser Trackers offer comprehensive, large-volume 3D measurement up to 80 meters, significantly streamlining your organization’s processes and reducing inspection cycle times — all while ensuring complete confidence in the results.
- The VantageS is intended for short-to-long range measurement applications of up to 80 meters, while the VantageE supports short-to-medium range applications of up to 35 meters
- ActiveSeek™ FARO’s patent-pending feature to quickly and efficiently locate and lock onto a target allowing the Vantage to follow a moving target, even behind obstacles, and lock onto the target again when it is stable
- Integrated Absolute Distance Measurement System (iADM) – Vantage is the only tracker that uses one laser to measure angle and distance with iADM to ensure exceptional accuracy
And more:
- High accuracy with virtually no drift
- Easy transport and setup – no master control unit required
- Dual, hot-swappable battery
- Tested and proven, rugged design and construction
- IP52 compliant water and dust resistant
Popular High-Tech Option for the Vantage Laser Tracker
6Probe
Vantage Max laser trackers maximize 6 degrees of freedom (6DoF) measurement capabilities via the optional 6Probe, enabling precise measurement of hidden areas and small features. With kinematic self-identifying styli, you can change probing tips quickly and measure without any recalibration, plus measure hidden areas outside of the tracker’s line of sight with wide acceptance angles.
- Eliminate SMR nests
- Measure hidden areas outside of the tracker’s line of sight, while limiting device movements
- Change probing tips on the fly with kinematic self-identifying styli
- Enable CMM-style probing in small, tight and hard-to-reach spaces
- Quickly scan surfaces with high-density using a 1,000 Hz measurement rate of single beam iADM
