ZEISS ScanBox: Hello automated digital twins and inspections. Goodbye bottlenecks.
Production and lab floor proven all-in-one automated 3D scanning solution that empowers you to program, digitize, inspect, and report — all in one seamless workflow.
It delivers high-speed, high-accuracy metrology results designed for real-world production environments - whether you need to measure full vehicle bodies or multiple small intricate parts, or looking for lights out solutions:
Automate your inspection processes with repeatable, robot-controlled measurements
Accelerate throughput with 50–80% faster measuring times
Catch production deviations early with full-field 3D comparisons to CAD
Create inspection programs offline using the Virtual Measuring Room (VMR)
Generate instant GD&T data, trimming lines, hole locations, and more
Simplify operation with minimal training required
Scale from small parts to complete assemblies with modular system options
Ensure reliable, standardized measurement routines across global plants
ScanBox enables us to digitize a complete part in little or no time to create GD&Ts as well as sections or false-color comparisons afterwards in order to determine various drawing dimensions.
Why ZEISS ScanBox?
Here are 5 solid reasons to get started with your demo or proof of concept...
Accelerated measuring times
50 – 80 % faster compared to traditional metrology
While mechanical measuring systems capture data in a point-based or linear manner, the optical 3D measuring machine ZEISS ScanBox provides full-field 3D measurement coordinates. The resulting 3D model can be compared with the CAD model. This allows you to detect deviations and identify defects such as deformations. With ZEISS ScanBox you can measure and inspect your parts 50 to 80 % faster than with traditional methods.
Your advantage: Faster results and less scrap
Easy operation
Automated process control at the touch of a button
ZEISS ScanBox can be programmed and controlled via a simple user interface, the Kiosk Interface. Plan your measurement sequences with just a few clicks and then execute them automatically in the virtual measuring room (VMR) in ZEISS INSPECT. The Smart Teach functionality in the VMR simplifies the creation of robot programs. Your employees do not need any special robot expertise to do this.
Your advantage: Reliable series inspection, no expert skills required
Numerous applications
Large variety of applications – from toys to body-in-white
ZEISS ScanBox is available in various models for different part sizes and applications. Allround systems are available as well as specialized solutions for specific requirements. The ZEISS ScanBox systems for small parts are compact, while the larger 3D measuring machines can be used in a fixed position for quality assurance in production. They also serve perfectly for tool try-out and product development.
Your advantage: Customized solutions also for your industry
Effective analysis tool
All-in one: scanning, inspection and reporting
Our strength is the combination of hardware and software: ZEISS ScanBox covers all process steps - from programming and automated digitization to inspection and reporting. The software ZEISS INSPECT automatically generates GD&T information as well as trimming and hole positions. This allows you to implement necessary corrections directly thanks to easy to understand results.
Your advantage: Complete solution for simple or complex inspections
Be in good company
OEM proven and high reputation worldwide
In production, the 3D measuring machine convinces with robustness, its measuring speed and the compensation of temperature fluctuations. Even under harsh conditions you get traceable results. Today, ZEISS ScanBox has already established itself worldwide as the preferred measuring system for production control and quality assurance in a wide range of industries, such as automotive, aerospace or energy.
Your advantage: High process reliability and long-lasting system runtime

Virtual Measuring Room in ZESS INSPECT
Real environment in a virtual simulation
The virtual measuring room (VMR) is the central control and measurement planning software for all elements of the optical 3D measuring machines. It represents the real environment in a virtual simulation. The VMR consists of a robot with one sensor, the programming, including the kinematics of the robot paths, the part and the measurement plan. Thanks to the VMR, the user does not need any special robot skills. All robot movements are simulated in the virtual measuring room before execution and checked for safety.
