FARO Technologies provides 3D measurement and imaging solutions for professionals in manufacturing, construction, public safety, and other industries. Its main products include laser scanners and related software that capture precise 3D data of physical spaces and objects, which users then process to measure, inspect, model, and analyze. The system works by using laser-based scanning to collect dense point clouds and images, which are converted into usable digital models in software for tasks such as measurement, quality control, and planning. Compared with competitors, FARO combines a long history in 3D measurement with a broad ecosystem of hardware and software, a track record of growth and acquisitions, and a global presence that supports end-to-end solutions. Its goal is to be a leading provider of accurate, reliable 3D measurement data and tools that help customers make better design, construction, manufacturing, and safety decisions.

Capture FARO CREAFORM 3D scanner data directly into PolyWorks Inspector. Preserves existing workflows while unlocking advanced inspection capabilities and streamlining processes. Wed, 03/18/2026 - 12:01 (InnovMetric: Quebec City) - InnovMetric, an independent software development company that empowers every size of manufacturer to digitally transform their 3D measurement processes, in collaboration with FARO CREAFORM, a business of AMETEK and global provider of 3D scanning and portable CMM solutions, announces that data acquisition from FARO CREAFORM's auto-referencing multiline 3D scanners is now fully integrated into PolyWorks|Inspector. This means that users can benefit from real-time data visualization and a complete dimensional analysis and quality control toolbox during acquisition. | ADVERTISEMENT | This integration was developed in direct response to customer feedback. Many industrial OEMs who already standardized on PolyWorks|Inspector for dimensional inspection have emphasized the importance of maintaining established workflows and minimizing disruptions. By enabling direct data acquisition in PolyWorks|Inspector, InnovMetric and FARO CREAFORM ensure that their customers can keep leveraging the complete suite of tools and functionalities they trust while benefiting from advanced scanning capabilities. Key benefits. Reduced learning curve: Operators no longer need to switch between software platforms or adapt to new interfaces, cutting training time and accelerating onboarding. Faster time to production: By leveraging operator expertise, established processes, and metrology-grade handheld 3D scanners, manufacturers can reach operational efficiency faster. Full compatibility: FARO CREAFORM provides auto-referencing multiline 3D scanner data acquisition that's fully compatible with PolyWorks|Inspector functionalities, including automatic scan-to-CAD alignment, surface and feature scanning guidance, mixed-reality measurement workflows, and automation macro scripts. "Global OEMs often rely on PolyWorks 3D measurement templates to enforce compliance across multiple plants," says Marco St-Pierre, division VP of innovation, 3D scanners at FARO CREAFORM. "This integration allows FARO CREAFORM 3D scanners to plug into those templates without requiring custom scripts or additional configuration. It simplifies large-scale deployment, ensuring consistent inspection logic and reporting across diverse production environments. As a worldwide reseller of PolyWorks solutions, we are proud to deliver a unified solution that streamlines quality control across worldwide operations." "This integration demonstrates our dedication to customer satisfaction and our ability to respond to industry needs," says Éric Roberge, vice president of products and innovation for the Metrology Suite at InnovMetric. "The joint workflow supports hybrid inspection strategies, where portable scanners complement CMMs in a single environment. By enabling direct data acquisition from FARO CREAFORM 3D scanners, we extend the acquisition stage of the PolyWorks digital thread, ensuring that measurement data flows seamlessly from capture to analysis without breaking connectivity." This milestone strengthens the long-standing partnership between the two companies. It also underscores their shared commitment to delivering solutions tailored to their customers' priorities: maintaining their preferred software tools and procedures while benefiting from the latest advancements in 3D scanning and inspection.
