Trimble introduced the Trimble X9 3D laser scanning system, a new adaptable reality capture solution for surveyors, builders, and engineers.
Trimble’s proven laser scanning technologies are at the heart of the X9, which has been designed to improve performance in a wider range of environments by leveraging innovations such as Trimble X-Drive technology for automatic instrument calibration, survey-grade self-leveling, and a laser pointer for georeferencing.
The new Trimble X9 improves on the industry-proven Trimble X7 by providing longer range, higher accuracy, quicker scan times, and excellent sensitivity, resulting in better scan results and increased productivity. Sophisticated processing and a high-performance laser boost scan sensitivity, putting the X9 at the forefront of photographing tough dark or reflective objects. A redesigned center unit design enhances signal transmission, resulting in higher scan quality. The X9 expands possible applications for customers in surveying, building construction, oil and gas, rail, forensics, monitoring, tunneling, mining, and other industries with more efficient reality capture capabilities.
With in-field registration within Trimble Perspective and Trimble FieldLink, the X9 saves time while providing very accurate and dependable data, enabling confident decision making both in the field and in the office. The auto-calibration eliminates the need for annual calibration, lowering the cost of ownership, reducing downtime, and increasing the users’ return on investment dramatically. Furthermore, the X9 has survey-grade self-leveling with the industry’s broadest compensation range for quick and easy setup.
Trimble X9 data can be delivered directly from Trimble Perspective or FieldLink software to Trimble’s office software, such as Trimble RealworksTM 3D scanning software, Trimble Business Center office software, SketchUp and Tekla, or exported to industry-standard formats to generate application-specific deliverables. Trimble’s ecosystem delivers the tools and flexibility that scanning experts use to provide what their customers require.
“Our customers buy Trimble because they want reliability and performance,” said Jason Hayes, market manager for Trimble Geospatial’s Reality Capture Solutions. “The Trimble X9 is simple to use, provides unsurpassed reliability, and excels at creating high-quality digital representations of the world for applications ranging from fast-paced building documentation to challenging outdoor surveys.”
Trimble’s Geospatial and Building Construction Field Solutions Distribution Partners are now selling the Trimble X9.
