The 3D Scan Arm or the Future of Maintenance

Optimize your dimensional inspections with the 3D Scan Arm solution.

Precision and reliability are non-negotiable in the railway industry.
That is why Eurailtest offers an advanced measurement solution: the 3D Measurement Arm and Scanning system. An innovative tool delivering highly accurate dimensional measurements, both in laboratory conditions and on site, fully meeting the most stringent maintenance and safety requirements.

Cutting-edge technology for accurate measurements

Equipped with the FARO ScanArm, our 3D Scan Arm combines two measurement methods : contact probing and surface scanning.

With a working range of 2.5 meters in diameter and a manufacturer-specified accuracy of ±0.039 mm, it is perfectly suited for analysing large components such as axles, wheels, car bodies or track equipment.
This technology also enables 3D digitalization of complex parts, facilating reverse engineering and comparison between new, worn or defective components.

Tailor-made services

At Eurailtest, we understand that every project is unique.
That’s why we offer flexible solutions:

• On-site or laboratory measurements: scanning or measurement services adapted to your specific needs.
• Dimensional evolution monitoring: identification of wear zones and deformations on in-service components through early analysis, before defects occur.
• Digitization for reverse engineering: creation of digital models exportable in IGES format.

A comprehensive, all-in-one offer designed to simplify your projects
We manage the entire process: from feasibility studies and on-site measurements to the delivery of an operational, ready-to-use test report.

Tangible benefits for your maintenance operations

Integrating the 3D Scan Arm into your maintenance strategy means benefiting from:

• Cost reduction: no need to dismantle or transport parts unnecessarily.
• Time savings: fast on-site measurements, from 30 minutes to a few hours depending on complexity.
• Improved safety: early detection and identification of defects, helping prevent incidents.
• Versatility: a solution applicable to a wide range of industrial sectors well beyond railways.

Ideal for predictive maintenance, this solution helps optimize maintenance schedules and component lifecycle management.
