The Shining 3D FreeScan Trak Nova is a wireless dynamic-tracking metrology system that pairs the UE Nova wide-range handheld laser scanner with the TE Nova and patented video photogrammetry (VPG), all packed in one portable case. It measures at 0.02 mm accuracy and 0.062 mm volumetric accuracy over 12 m³ (0.046 + 0.012 mm/m with VPG), certified to VDI/VDE 2634 Part 3 and ISO 10360 in Shining 3D’s ISO/IEC 17025 accredited lab.

Why metrology teams choose the FreeScan Trak Nova
Traceable accuracy on large parts, without a stiff CMM or a wall of markers.
Certified, traceable accuracy
0.02 mm accuracy, 0.062 mm volumetric accuracy over 12 m³ and 0.046 + 0.012 mm/m with VPG, tested to VDI/VDE 2634 Part 3 and ISO 10360 in Shining 3D’s ISO/IEC 17025 accredited lab.
Dynamic tracking + VPG
Real-time dynamic tracking scans most parts without markers, and patented video photogrammetry removes the need for coded markers on large objects — less setup and freedom to move around the object.
Flexible, separable system
The UE Nova works on its own as a wide-range handheld laser scanner (field of view up to 2600 × 2200 mm) and, paired with the TE Nova, as a dynamic tracking system. Fifty laser lines cover large areas; 7 parallel lines and a single line handle fine detail and deep pockets.
Wireless, large working volume
Fully wireless with a separable tracker and scanner, a field of view up to 2600 × 2200 mm, and a 3.5 m tracking range — reach into tight spaces or walk around a large assembly.

Metrology Performance
The FreeScan Trak Nova reaches 0.02 mm accuracy, 0.062 mm volumetric accuracy over 12 m³, and 0.046 + 0.012 mm/m volumetric extension accuracy with VPG, with resolution from 0.01 to 10 mm. Fifty laser lines give fast coverage; a 7-line mode adds fine detail and a single line reaches deep pockets. Accuracy is certified to VDI/VDE 2634 Part 3 and ISO 10360, tested in Shining 3D’s ISO/IEC 17025 accredited lab. See the full specification table below.

Dynamic Tracking & Working Range
The optical tracker follows the scanner in real time, so you move around the part instead of moving the part. The field of view reaches 2600 × 2200 mm and the tracking range is 3.5 m; Shining 3D offers Near, Standard and Far working modes for different distances. The units are light — 1.2 kg for the TE Nova and 1.6 kg for the UE Nova — and the whole system is wireless (router included), with a wired fiber-optic option.

Software & Workflow
The FreeScan Trak software fuses wide-range laser scanning of the overall structure with dynamically tracked detail into one dataset, and adds intelligent resolution and AI feature recognition for holes and slots. Compatible software includes SHINING3D Inspect, PolyWorks Inspector, Geomagic Control X, Geomagic Design X, EXModel Pro, and BlueStar Mapping.

Typical applications
Large-part inspection and reverse engineering across industry.
