Key Features
Optimize 3D inspections with full-featured area scan camera
- High-speed acquisition for fast image capture
- More than 1.5 million 3D data points detect fine features on parts
- High Dynamic Range (HDR) mode captures scenes with high contrast
- Powerful tools solve challenging 3D applications
- Factory-calibration delivers results in real-world units
- Rugged IP65-rated housing provides protection in harsh factory environments
The 3D-A5000 features advanced imaging technology that casts a unique blue light pattern on a part to acquire high-resolution 3D images at an unparalleled speed. It delivers a full field-of-view (FOV) 3D point cloud image as fast as 200 milliseconds, allowing higher throughput and shorter cycle times for time-critical, in-line applications.
The 3D-A5000 delivers high-resolution 3D point cloud images constructed from over 1.5 million data points. These high-resolution images, coupled with a powerful 3D vision toolset, allow the 3D-A5000 to solve a wide range of applications.
The 3D-A5000 has a rugged IP65-rated, die cast aluminum housing that is built to last on the factory floor. The industrial design ensures consistent measurement results, even under varying temperatures.

Unlock new levels of speed and precision with complete set of built-in 3D tools
This image-based training tool finds the orientation of one or more parts in 3D space in relation to a similar reference part. It is ideal for object location for robotic guidance applications and allows additional tools to perform measurements accurately regardless of object fixturing.
The Height Calculator tool provides the height of an object in real world units based on a reference plane.
The Volume Calculator tool collects volumetric data from a 3D image providing a precise volume of an object lying on a specific surface.
The Cross-Section tool takes a slice of the image and measures the profile over that region for dimensional inspection.
