Meet Artec Neo, a hybrid, wireless handheld 3D scanner engineered for metrology-grade accuracy of 0.025 mm. Artec Neo covers virtually any reverse engineering and inspection task with a single device: scan with targets where tolerances must hold, capture target-free when speed matters, and get true-to-life color and fine 0.05 mm resolution to document surface condition — all in one scan, one dataset.


One scanner, many scenarios — apply reference targets to suit your task, from a full field to none at all. Every scenario ends in a single complete dataset with anchored accuracy and every detail captured.
First article inspection · Golden samples
Achieve metrology-grade accuracy everywhere: full target coverage.
Targets across the whole part keep every frame anchored — with Artec Neo reaching 0.025 mm + 0.035 mm/m volumetric accuracy over the entire surface.


Reverse engineering · Validation
Capture complete objects with metrology-grade accuracy on toleranced features.
Targets go around the features that perform a function — datums, fits, interfaces — anchoring accuracy exactly where it has to hold, with other surfaces captured target-free with full detail and color.
Inspection · Dimensional control
Inspect critical surfaces without covering them with targets.
Targets go on the fixture, not the part — the setup carries the metrology-grade accuracy framework, with no error accumulation across the measurement.
Even deep channels and passages, where targets can’t be applied, are measured as-is to be compared against CAD.


Assembly · Retrofitting · Machine installation
Measure features relative to each other — without scanning everything in between.
A target trail links connecting points into one common frame of reference — scan the trail first, then just the features that matter.
Capture vital engineering data — flange-to-flange distances, bolt-circle orientation, and mounting-point coordinates over several meters with metrology-grade accuracy.
Design · Prototyping · 3D modeling
Accurate and fast capture, no targets at all.
Scan entire objects in minutes with up to 0.05 mm accuracy and resolution — no target placement or surface preparation required.
Get clean meshes ready for CAD, as well as full-color part scans carrying numbers, casting marks, and surface condition.

With a built-in battery and Wi-Fi, Artec Neo gives users the freedom to scan continuously where running a cable wouldn’t be feasible for on-site inspection, scanning at height, and capturing in confined spaces.


Acceptance testing is done per VDI/VDE 2634 Part 3, using robot-driven trajectories and internationally traceable reference objects.
Artec’s dedicated metrology laboratory, operating according to ISO/IEC 17025 principles, with safeguards for impartiality.
Every Neo is individually calibrated and verified before shipment, and ships with its own accuracy certificate.
