does anyone know the max speed you are allowed to scan with one of these?
The maximum speed is based on the point density you require and the sampling rate of the controller.
If you want to measure 10 points per millimeter and your controller can only sample 1 point every 0.1 second than your maximum scanning speed is 1mm/sec. The sampling rate is based on what kind of detail you are trying to capture.
I believe the B3C controllers sample every 10 ms (you should verify this). If the scanning speed or density is set higher than the controller can handle it will interpolate between samples trying to provide the density you are asking for. You could end up with a square hole if you set the speed high enough (unlikely but theoretically possible).
