Last week, Markus Nix and Peter Hinze, long-time FARO partners of sigma3D, visited the Mainz office. The purpose of the meeting was to exchange experiences and present their respective new products.
Mr. Nix and Mr. Hinze brought along the new FARO Lasertracker 6DoF Probe. The 6DoF Probe was just released at the end of 2020, and sigma3D is already looking forward to testing the device.
In return, the sigma3D software development team presented the OpenIndy measurement software. OpenIndy is open-source measurement software that was developed a few years ago and is now used by all employees in their daily work.
Update: Tests conducted so far with the 6DoF probe look very promising. Internal field tests show that the new 6DoF probe meets sigma3D’s requirements for ease of use and accuracy. It will soon be approved for the first 6DoF projects and will be shortlisted for the next procurement round.
