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 thought all those that you mentioned were for reverse engineering?

    I'm not doing reverse engineering, although we do run into a few instances where it would be nice to have that ability. Our CAD guys can make use of the scan data from PCDmis, but it is a lot of screwing around.


    The arm was marketed to us as an inspection tool for castings, which it works fine on. I have no problem scanning in 2011 MR1 custom or 2012 MR1( just installed today ), but if I use 2013, forget it......


    If PCDmis isn't meant for heavy scanning, then what good is it?
