ROMER Bike Measurement System Brochure-2

The laser scanner collects 460,000 3D points per second from the bike frame’s surface; an entire frame can be measured and checked in just a few minutes. ^2 The 3D points are compared to the CAD surfaces and assigned colours according to their distance from the CAD model. The system creates easy to understand checking reports. The ROMER Absolute Arm’s compact design and lightness mean it can be taken anywhere: from a factory shop-floor to a wind tunnel or even a racing event.
