FreeScan Trak Nova

Wireless Multi-Functional Dynamic Tracking & Scanning System

Small in Form, Big on Performance.

From construction machinery to rail transit, civil aviation to energy, FreeScan Trak Nova is built to meet the diverse needs of industries requiring accurate and efficient large-scale measurements with extreme portability, productivity and versatility.

All-In-One Scanning System

Detachable Handheld Scanner

Dynamic Tracking

Integrated Video Photogrammetry

Dynamic Tracking Scan: Compact and Agile

The real-time tracking technology allows for the capture of fine details. With its wireless and compact design, the system excels in scanning confined spaces, ensuring efficient and precise measurements.

Flexible & Separable System

FreeScan Trak Nova was recognized with the iF Design Award 2026 for its innovative product design. It includes a detachable handheld scanner. The tracker, FreeScan UE Nova, also serves as a handheld laser scanner with the largest FOV on the market, delivering unparalleled efficiency and flexibility.

  • Large-scale scanning coverage with 2.6 × 2.2 m FOV
  • Ultra fast scan speed
  • Verified in our ISO 17025 accredited Accuracy Lab according to VDI/VDE 2634 Part 3 and ISO 10360 standards.

Video Photogrammetry (VPG)

FreeScan Trak Nova system features SHINING 3D’s patented video photogrammetry (VPG), which eliminates the need for coded markers. By integrating photogrammetry technology with a calibration rod, it enables real-time marker verification through video capture. This ensures consistent volumetric accuracy and streamlines the setup process for efficient large-object scanning.

Free to Scan, Built to Perform

Integrated wireless modules: Achieve greater freedom when scanning large objects or in tight spaces, without the limitations of cables or external devices. This seamless integration allows for real-time transmission of scan data, ensuring high frame rates and stable data transfer.

Built-in computing modules: With advanced computing modules, both the tracking scanner and wide-range scanner ensure rapid and efficient processing.

Easy to Carry, Light to Move

Everything you need is neatly packed in one portable case, with a lightweight carbon fiber structure that ensures stability and reliable performance in any environment.

Faqs

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the battery life in wireless mode?
In wireless mode, TE Nova can operate for up to 2.5 hours, while UE Nova lasts approximately 1 hour. Both devices use standard swappable batteries, enabling continuous scanning without interruptions.
Is a router required for wireless mode? Can the system connect directly to a computer via a wireless connection?
A Wi-Fi router is necessary for operating the system in wireless mode. SHINING 3D includes a router in the package, but if you prefer to use your own, we recommend a Wi-Fi 6 router for optimal performance.
Does wireless connectivity affect accuracy?
No. Wireless connectivity handles only data transmission and does not affect the accuracy.
What is volumetric accuracy?
Volumetric accuracy refers to the measurement precision of a scanner across its entire scanning volume, rather than the accuracy of individual points. It is a critical metric for inspecting large components, as it reflects how errors accumulate with distance.
How can accuracy be improved when scanning large parts?
The system utilizes SHINING 3D’s patented video-based photogrammetry technology to enhance overall accuracy. UE Nova supports a maximum photogrammetry working distance of 3.5 meters, enabling efficient capture and generation of global marker files for improved precision.
Is the scanner certified or traceable to standards?
Yes. The scanner provides inspection reports and calibration certificates traceable to international standards such as VDI/VDE 2634 and ISO 10360 (subject to the actual certificates issued). All calibration and verification procedures are performed in SHINING 3D’s accredited Accuracy Lab, which operates in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025 requirements.
Does FreeScan Trak Nova require markers when scanning?
No. FreeScan Trak Nova uses advanced tracking technology that can scan without markers for most parts, although markers may be recommended for very large surfaces to ensure optimal accuracy.
How does 3D scanning improve quality control compared to manual measurement and CMMs?
3D scanning captures the full 3D geometry of a part in one measurement. Compared to manual tools, it enables 100% surface inspection, reduces operator errors, and detects shape deformations often missed in key-point checks. Compared to CMMs, it is faster and provides richer data, especially for complex or freeform surfaces.
