3D inventory of the underbody of UK Metro carriages by scanning with a Surphaser laser scanner

The bottom of the trains are scanned regularly for inventory and documentation of damages.

Advantages of the laser scanner Surphaser:

1. Reduction of the scan time from 2 days (with structured light scanner) down to several hours.
2. Reduction of post processing time from 5-6 days to 1 days due to the higher data quality.
3. Due to the large scan range and capability to measure in deep cavities the Surphaser achieved a better surphaser coverage with only a few scans.
