(1) MetraSCAN BLACK and MetraSCAN BLACK|Elite (ISO 17025 accredited): Based on VDI/VDE 2634 part 3 standard. Probing error performance is assessed with diameter measurement on traceable
sphere artefacts.
MetraSCAN 357: Typical value for diameter measurement on a calibrated sphere artefact.
(2) MetraSCAN BLACK and MetraSCAN BLACK|Elite (ISO 17025 accredited): Based on VDI/VDE 2634 part 3 standard. Sphere-spacing error is assessed with traceable length artefacts by measuring
these at different locations and orientations within the working volume.
MetraSCAN 357: Value for sphere spacing measurement on calibrated length artefacts.
(3) The volumetric accuracy performance of the system when using a MaxSHOT 3D cannot be superior to the default volumetric accuracy performance for a given model.
(4) HandyPROBE Next and HandyPROBE Next|Elite performance assessment (ISO 17025 accredited) is based on partial procedure per ISO 10360-12 standard: Probing size error (6.2) and
Length error (6.4). Performance is assessed on traceable sphere and length artefacts.
