High-resolution 3D imaging for static dimensioning, inspection and depalletization applications

The Zebra 3S40 3D sensor delivers exceptional accuracy and resolution for depalletization, static dimensioning, and oversized item inspection. Featuring Structured Light technology, it captures 1.5 million points (1440 x 1080) in just 450 ms, generating highly detailed point clouds with true per-pixel measurement. Advanced ambient light suppression enhances performance, ensuring precise results in various lighting conditions.
- Plug and play integration – Easily paired with Zebra’s powerful 4Sight EV7 vision controller and Aurora software. Just point the 3S40 device at a scene to capture an accurate high-density point cloud.
- Large scanning volume – The 3S40 3D sensor’s scanning volume ranges up to two meters to capture large and very small objects.
- Ambient light suppression – 1.5-MP structured light scanning with laser projection and ambient light suppression delivers optimal results.
- Power-over-ethernet (PoE) and 24V powering options – A single PoE cable provides both power and a data connection.
- Lightweight and energy efficient – Thanks to its low weight, the 3S40 3D sensor can be mounted directly onto a robotic arm to allow robotic hand-eye applications.
