Confidence in Every Critical Surface.

The SCANOLOGY SIMSCAN-S Gen2 is a palm-sized 3D scanner with high accuracy. It offers wireless freedom, ultra-fast scanning, and flexible operating modes.
It enhances accuracy through robust algorithms and advanced craftsmanship, while incorporating sphericity and flatness into its accuracy control — keeping precision as the foundation and further ensuring geometric fidelity and detailed measurements.
Ideal for high-precision machined and complex parts, the SIMSCAN-S Gen2 is designed to make precision scanning faster, more detailed, and more reliable than ever.

Designed for the Way You Work

The SCANOLOGY SIMSCAN-S Gen2 is built around the professional who needs precision without friction. Its ergonomic form, detachable charging base, and single-handed operation make it one of the most practical metrology-grade scanners available — weighing just 560 g with nothing to slow you down.
An integrated real-time display keeps scan data visible as you work, so you stay informed and in control at every step — without stepping away from the part.

Precision Without the Cable

The SIMSCAN-S Gen2 is built for complete freedom of movement. Its magnesium-alloy housing keeps the device light and field-ready at 560 g, while on-device processing and Wi-Fi 6 wireless connectivity eliminate cable dependency entirely.
Whether you are working overhead, inside a confined assembly, or across a large production floor — the SIMSCAN-S Gen2 maintains consistent, reliable performance throughout. No setup friction. No tether. Just clean, uninterrupted scanning.

Built to Reach the Difficult Details

Some of the most critical dimensions are the hardest to access. The SIMSCAN-S Gen2 is engineered for exactly those situations. Its short-baseline optical design produces a steep viewing angle that captures accurate data inside deep bores, narrow grooves, internal channels, and tight recesses — areas where conventional scanners simply cannot deliver complete results.
Complex geometry is no longer a barrier to confident measurement.

More Data. Less Time. No Compromise.

The SIMSCAN-S Gen2 is engineered for professionals who cannot afford to choose between speed and accuracy. With a measurement rate of up to 8,100,000 points per second, 180 FPS, and 108 quad-crossed blue laser lines, it captures intricate parts completely — and rapidly.
Three dedicated scan modes give you full control over every job: broad coverage for large or complex surfaces, fine-detail capture for precise surface analysis, and targeted reach for deep or hidden features. One scanner. Every measurement challenge.
