Ceramscan

  • Measures volume, density and dimensional profiles of ceramic pieces.
  • The safest procedure for density measurement.
  • Powerful, feature-rich software.
  • Large sample testing envelope for testing both very small and very large products.
  • Substantiate your product claims & compare your product vs competitive products.
  • Safer than X-ray techniques that are also expensive and require fully trained operators.
  • Uses an eye-safe laser and therefore is the safest procedure for density determination.
  • Export data in .dxf or .stl CAD file formats for 3D printing.

Safe density measurement.

Ceramic engineering. Not affected by sample porosity, making it perfct for measuring bricks, tiles, porcelain, pottery, glass, cement and concrete. Industries: dental, bioceramics, medical, electronics, aerospace, construction. Run general tensile, adhesive peel, flexure, and puncture tests.

Unique Features

Export CAD file

Ensure 3D-printed objects are accurate.

Scan the printed sample and import the data as a .stl file. This allows you to import your file into popular CAD packages to compare your CAD output with your CAD input.

Not sure of the benefit?

Ceramscan has its own integral spreadsheet.

No alternative compares.

Alternative Methods
  • Fluid displacement techniques do not work for porous materials.
  • Mercury displacement techniques are toxic and therefore illegal in most countries.
  • Gas displacement techniques do not work for large samples.
  • X-Ray techniques are expensive, hazardous, and require highly trained operators.
Ceramscan
  • Ceramscan works for any material, including porous ones.
  • Ceramscan is non-contact and verified to be as accurate as mercury displacement.
  • Ceramscan has the largest measurement envelope in its class.
  • Ceramscan’s eye-safe laser is safe and easy to operate.
