2013 RS1 Scan speed

Any one else have trouble with the speed of the RS1 in 2013?

I have found that once you start to get a few million scan points, the scan speed vastly slows down. The beeps that the RS1 makes as it is taking points has slowed down to a beep every 15-20 seconds......and no points being scanned.

Has anyone else ran into this?

  • I am assuming that you are scanning into PcDmis. If that is the case you have to remember that PcDmis wasn't really made to do heavy scanning. That kind of data collection really needs to be done in something like Polyworks or Rapidform (Now something else in Geomagic). As you start to get where you are doing alot of laser scanning data collection you really need to think about another software. Some might disagree but you really don't see a heavy presence of PcDmis scanning in the market and there is a reason for that.

    Like I said if you are doing alot of scanning inspection outside of simple overlays or simple scans you really might want to look at Polyworks. It have a pretty flawless software package with the arm.
