How ATOS Q and ZEISS ScanPort Are Transforming Aerospace Manufacturing

In the world of precision engineering, especially in demanding sectors like aerospace, quality isn’t optional; it’s mission-critical. That’s why manufacturers like Andreas Bruns Zerspanungstechnik are turning to advanced 3D scanning solutions like the ZEISS ATOS Q, paired with the ZEISS ScanPort, to optimize production, streamline quality control, and deliver highly precise components with confidence.

The Challenge: Complex Parts, Tight Tolerances

Aerospace components are among the most challenging parts to produce. With freeform surfaces, complex geometries, and ultra-tight tolerances, conventional measuring tools alone often fall short. To stay competitive, manufacturers need fast, accurate, and repeatable measurement systems that integrate seamlessly into modern workflows.

Meet the ATOS Q: Compact Powerhouse in 3D Metrology

The ZEISS ATOS Q stands out as a versatile industrial 3D scanner built for high-precision measurement and inspection tasks. Its compact, mobile design makes it suitable both in lab environments and directly on the shop floor, bringing metrology to where it’s needed most.

These features make the ATOS Q a flexible solution for numerous applications: from reverse engineering and prototype verification to quality assurance of plastic, cast, and machined parts.

Next Level Automation with ZEISS ScanPort

While ATOS Q is powerful on its own, combining it with the ZEISS ScanPort takes productivity and repeatability to a new level. The ScanPort is a semi-automated scanning station that brings 3-axis automation into your workflow without the complexity of a full robotic setup.

For a company like Andreas Bruns Zerspanungstechnik, the combination of ATOS Q and ScanPort delivers time savings, consistent measurement quality, and clearer insight into production data, helping them deliver precision aerospace parts reliably to their customers.

Final Thoughts: Precision Meets Productivity

Today’s competitive manufacturing landscape demands solutions that not only measure accurately but also integrate smoothly into real-world workflows. The ZEISS ATOS Q delivers high-quality 3D data with versatility and portability, while the ZEISS ScanPort adds automation and repeatability, equipping manufacturers of complex parts with a metrology workflow that’s fast, reliable, and scalable.

Whether you’re tackling reverse engineering, quality assurance, or regular inspection tasks, this 3D scanning duo offers a compelling combination of speed, accuracy, and user-friendly automation.
