Decision summary
Where it fits—and where it doesn’t.
Strengths
- Scan, process and preview without carrying a laptop
- Single-line, seven parallel and 22 crossed laser modes plus dual-range infrared
- 24 GB onboard RAM, 256 GB storage and replaceable batteries
Limitations
- Higher purchase price and an 830 g scanner body
- Standalone and PC modes have different maximum capture rates
- Laser tracking still relies on markers; onboard processing does not replace reverse-engineering CAD
- Confirm export formats for the chosen onboard or PC workflow; accuracy is mode-dependent
