What your metrology engineer actually checks
Metrology-grade accuracy without coded targets
0.02 mm accuracy (with markers) and 0.02 + 0.015 mm/m volumetric accuracy with the built-in photogrammetry module — assessed per VDI/VDE 2634 and ISO 10360 in Shining 3D’s ISO/IEC 17025-certified accuracy lab, with calibration certificates traceable to international standards.

The Shining 3D FreeScan UE Pro is a laser handheld 3D scanner built for metrology-grade inspection — 26+7+1 switchable laser lines plus a built-in photogrammetry module deliver accuracy of 0.02 mm (with markers) and 0.02 + 0.015 mm/m volumetric accuracy with photogrammetry, with a maximum single-frame FOV of 600 × 550 mm and no coded targets required.
Why metrology teams choose the FreeScan UE Pro
Three laser configurations and built-in photogrammetry in one scanner.
Three laser modes in one scanner
Switch between 26 laser lines (13 crossed pairs) for fast coverage, 7 parallel lines for fine detail, and a single line for deep holes and pockets — all in the same handheld unit.
Metrology-grade accuracy
0.02 mm accuracy (with markers) and 0.02 + 0.015 mm/m volumetric accuracy with the built-in photogrammetry module, tested to VDI/VDE 2634 Part 3 in Shining 3D’s ISO 17025 certified lab. See full specifications below.
No coded targets for global positioning
The patented built-in scale-bar photogrammetry module quickly locks the spatial position of the marker frame with no coded targets, increasing volumetric accuracy on large parts. Standard markers are still recommended for best data.
Wired for stable data transfer
USB 3.0 connection to a workstation (Shining 3D recommends i7-8700, RTX 3060 or higher with ≥6 GB VRAM, ≥32 GB RAM) for continuous power and stable data transmission through long scan sessions.

Scanning Performance
The FreeScan UE Pro combines 26 blue laser lines (13 crossed pairs) for fast coverage, 7 parallel lines for fine-feature detail, and a single line for deep holes and pockets, plus a built-in photogrammetry module for global precision control on large parts. Scan rate reaches up to 1,850,000 points/s at a 0.01–10 mm point distance. Accuracy is 0.02 mm (with markers), with volumetric accuracy of 0.02 + 0.03 mm/m in standard mode and 0.02 + 0.015 mm/m in photogrammetry mode. See the full specification table below.
Working Range & Portability
Working distance is 300 mm in the 26-line and single-line modes and 200 mm in the 7-line fine scan, with a scan depth of 170–680 mm and a maximum field of view of 600 × 550 mm, with a single line for deep holes and pockets. The handheld head weighs 840 g (1.85 lbs) at 298 × 103.5 × 74.5 mm and connects over USB 3.0 to a workstation running the FreeScan software — no onboard battery or wireless link, so scan sessions stay stable through long QC runs on the shop floor.
Software & Workflow
FreeScan software drives capture, mode switching between multiple-lines/single-line/fine-scan, and photogrammetry alignment on a connected Windows 10 (64-bit) workstation — Intel i7-8700 or better, NVIDIA RTX 3060 or higher, 32 GB RAM recommended. Shining 3D lists SHINING3D Inspect, PolyWorks, Geomagic Control X, Geomagic Design X, EXModel Pro, and BlueStar Mapping as compatible software.
Typical applications
One scanner across aerospace, automotive, and industrial inspection.
