## PolyScan XM FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)

### What is the PolyScan XM?

▼

The PolyScan XM is a mid-sized 3D scanning system engineered for industrial environments. It offers an ideal balance of precision and volume, making it well-suited for automotive, aerospace, and general manufacturing applications. The system uses [Surround.Scan™](https://polyrix.com/technology/surround-scan?hsLang=en) technology to capture full-field 3D data quickly and accurately.

### What is the scanning accuracy of the PolyScan XM?

▼

With the advanced (optional) [Calibration.Plus](https://polyrix.com/technology/calibration-plus?hsLang=en) module, the PolyScan XM achieves volumetric accuracy up to ±0.015 mm. Even without the advanced module, users can expect excellent precision in the ±0.020 mm range, depending on part geometry and setup.

### How long does it take to scan an object with the PolyScan XM?

▼

Typical scan times range from 6 to 8 minutes. When paired with [Fast.Scan](https://polyrix.com/technology/fast-scan?hsLang=en), cycle times can be reduced to as little as 20 seconds, depending on part geometry and inspection resolution.

### What is the maximum part size that the PolyScan XM can scan?

▼

The PolyScan XM is designed to scan parts up to 0.75 meters in size. It is ideal for medium-volume applications such as transmission housings, hydraulic pumps, castings, and fabricated assemblies.

### Does the PolyScan XM require any special preparation of the object before scanning?

▼

In most cases, no surface preparation is required. Matte and lightly reflective surfaces are easily scanned thanks to our proprietary [Surround.Scan™](https://polyrix.com/technology/surround-scan?hsLang=en) technology, included with every PolyScan.

### What industries benefit from using the PolyScan XM?

▼

Industries such as automotive, aerospace, medical devices, foundries, energy, and industrial manufacturing benefit from the XM’s mid-volume capacity, high accuracy, and fast inspection workflows. 

### Can the PolyScan XM be integrated into an existing production line?

▼

Yes. The XM is automation-ready and can be integrated into robotic cells, conveyors, and production environments. Optional I/O and automation modules allow seamless connection with MES, PLCs, and safety systems.

### What is the structure of the PolyScan XM?

▼

The PolyScan XM features a rigid hemispherical enclosure with fixed-position cameras and projectors. It is mounted on an, **optional** carbon-fiber, structure that offers high stability and resistance to vibration and thermal drift—making it ideal for shop-floor conditions.

### What software is compatible with the PolyScan XM?

▼

Every system includes Polyrix Lab software to operate the scanner. The output is compatible with all major data processing software platforms (sold separately). A plugin for InnovMetric’s PolyWorks|Inspector™ is included with every system.

### How can I request a demonstration of the PolyScan XM?

▼

To request a demo, simply fill out the [contact form](https://polyrix.com/contact#request-information) on our website. We offer live virtual demos, in-person evaluations, or [Simulation.Lab](https://polyrix.com/technology/simulation-lab?hsLang=en) previews using your CAD model to show how the PolyScan XM would perform for your specific part(s) and process.

### Does the PolyScan XM support inline quality control?

▼

Yes, the XM supports at-line and inline inspection configurations and is built for integration with automated workflows. [Combined with Fast.Scan and Calibration.Plus, it meets the speed and traceability requirements of demanding production environments.](https://polyrix.com/services/inline-metrology?hsLang=en)

### What types of parts are typically scanned with the PolyScan XM?

▼

Common applications include transmission housings, hydraulic pumps, castings, closures, control arms, subframes, and sheet metal components—especially where fast, repeatable, high-accuracy measurements are essential.
