Magnetic reference cubes 6 mm black/white suitable for structured light scanners, 10 pieces

Precision calibration blocks for optical 3D scanners and high-resolution measuring systems

These magnetic reference cubes with 6 mm edges are specifically designed for optical 3D metrology and serve as stable, clearly identifiable reference objects for structured light scanners , fringe scanners, and high-precision optical measuring instruments. The high-contrast black and white design allows for precise identification of the cubes, enabling particularly reliable spatial alignment, calibration, and geometry recognition.

Thanks to their magnetic base, the cubes can be placed securely, quickly, and with repeatable accuracy on metallic surfaces without slipping or rotating unintentionally. This makes them ideal for measurement tasks where fixed references are essential – such as on complex surfaces, technical assemblies, or repeated scanning processes.

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions

How are the reference cubes used in the scanning process?

They serve as stable geometric reference points that the scanner uses as fixed references to correctly position surfaces in space.

For which scanner systems are the cubes suitable?

For all optical systems that respond to structured light, fringe projection, or geometric markers.

Can the dice be used multiple times?

Yes, the magnetic mounting allows for a long service life in recurring measurement tasks.

Do the cubes also adhere to coated or painted metal surfaces?

Yes, as long as the surface is metallic and offers sufficient adhesive strength.
