Flexible 3D Scanner for Different Industry Applications
ATOS Q 3D scanner is built for complex measurement and inspection tasks. Its interchangeable lenses deliver high-precision measurements, while the fixed camera position makes it simple to switch between the smallest and largest measuring volumes.

Quality Assurance for Additively Manufactured Parts
ATOS Q plays a key role in additive manufacturing by capturing full-field data, which reflects the impact of machining and surface finishing on 3D-printed parts. The system reduces iterations, improves process control, and boosts product quality.
Accelerating the product development and launch phase.

Quality Assurance of Plastic Parts
ATOS Q optical 3D scanner quickly captures full-field measurement data of plastic parts. ATOS Q ensures highly accurate and repeatable measurements, even capturing the smallest details for precise evaluations—such as tool geometry corrections (sink marks, warpage, shrinkage) and machine/process parameters. The system also supports production control, reducing scrap and rework, while enabling trend analysis through scan data of multiple parts.
Speeding up all phases in:
- injection molding
- blow molding
- thermoforming processes

Quality Assurance of Casted Parts
ATOS Q is ideal for sand, pressure die, and investment casting processes, ensuring consistent quality assurance. During tool try-out, it digitizes the full surface of cast parts, allowing for deviation analysis by comparing full-field measurements to CAD data, which speeds up mold corrections. Deviation analysis, section inspections, feature location checks, and full GD&T analysis are easily done using ZEISS INSPECT software.
Optimizing processes in:
- sand casting
- pressure die casting
- investment casting

Quality Assurance of Sheet Metal Parts
As the demand for high-quality sheet metal parts continues to rise, so do the requirements for functionality and safety. Additionally, the ability to develop and launch products quickly is a key competitive advantage. This makes a fast, efficient measuring system for checking product shapes and quality essential.
ATOS Q is a great solution for optimizing metal forming (punching, bending, drawing and pressing) process chains.

3D Scanning for Parts Manufacturing Inspection
Discover how you can reimagine your quality inspection workflow—delivering greater accuracy in significantly less time.
Be Confident in Every Inspection with 3D Digitization
Even the smallest imperfection can compromise performance, lead to costly recalls, or damage your reputation. Conventional inspection methods are slow at taking measurements. They often overlook minute defects that are difficult to catch.
Ditch the complexity to get better and more accurate results. With 3D scanning, you can capture measurements of a physical object with exceptional accuracy! Instantly compare 3D scanned data of a part against your CAD models to detect even the slightest deviations—before they become bigger problems.
