RELIABLE
Toward new horizons for optical 3D digitizers
The KONICA MINOLTA RANGE7 boasts high accuracy and reliability. Points Konica Minolta Sensing cannot compromise as a manufacturer of measuring instruments.
Stable scanning with light sectioning method
KONICA MINOLTA RANGE7 employs triangulation by the light sectioning method, using a Class-2 semiconductor laser to sweep the target with laser light. In as little as approximately 2 seconds, a target is scanned with laser light that has passed through a slit, and the reflected light is received by the 1.31-megapixel CMOS sensor that provides high-resolution information. The information is then converted into 3D data using the data for distance to the target calculated based on the triangulation principle. One scan can obtain up to approximately 1,310,000 points (1,280 x 1,024 points) of 3D coordinate data.
High reliability with minimized influence from environment conditions
CFRP box structure offering great rigidity and temperature characteristics
The KONICA MINOLTA RANGE7 has adopted a new optical system which adjusts focus based on the signal from the image pickup device. It also has an integrated inner base-plate made of CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced plastic). As a result, the KONICA MINOLTA RANGE7 has achieved a lightweight body, great rigidity and high driving accuracy. At the time of measurement, the KONICA MINOLTA RANGE7 provides high reliability when operating in various environments by minimizing the influence of instrument tilt, temperature changes, etc.
High measurement accuracy based on strict inspection standards
Ball bars

The KONICA MINOLTA RANGE7 has achieved high measurement accuracy*1 of ±40 μm*2 in accuracy evaluation using ball bars*3 according to the guidelines in "VDI/VDE 2634*4 Part 2". The testing method utilizing ball bars is planned to be included in a Japanese Industrial Standards proposal related to the testing of optical non-contact coordinate measuring instruments.
Konica Minolta performs testing based on "VDI/VDE 2634 Part 2" using ball bars calibrated by the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology of Japan for all KONICA MINOLTA RANGE7 units. We build confidence by clearly indicating the product accuracy and by conducting strict testing for each unit before shipment.
- *1
- Accuracy: Measuring instrument accuracy expressed as error limits under the defined conditions.
- *2
- Measured with the TELE lens at a distance of 450 mm and ambient temperature of 20±1°C.
Other conditions are according to Konica Minolta Sensing standards. - *3
- Ball bar: Equipment for evaluation of accuracy, consisting of a bar that has balls attached at both ends.
- *4
- VDI/VDE 2634: Optical measurement system testing guidelines issued by Germany in 2002.
On-site calibration for maintaining high reliability
Compact calibration chart (standard accessory)
A compact calibration chart that can be set up on a table is supplied as standard. When calibration is required due to changes in ambient temperature, all you have to do is to scan the calibration chart according to the software guidance. This will ensure measurements with the same accuracy as the time of shipment from the factory.
