QC bottlenecks can slow production, delay deliveries, and lead to costly rework. As parts become…
In fast-paced manufacturing environments, time is everything—but accuracy is non-negotiable. That’s where the ZEISS ATOS Q from GOM, a ZEISS company, comes in. This compact, semi-automated blue light 3D scanner is built for reverse engineering, quality inspection, and high-volume production workflows—delivering fast, accurate results without the complexity.
Whether you’re scanning small parts or complex geometries, the ZEISS ATOS Q brings industrial-grade metrology to your desktop.
What Is the ZEISS ATOS Q?
The ZEISS ATOS Q is a structured light 3D scanner that uses blue light projection technology to capture precise surface data at high speed. Compact but powerful, it’s designed for use in both lab and shop floor environments—and when paired with an optional rotary table, it becomes a semi-automated scanning powerhouse.

Fast, Guided Workflow with Minimal Setup
Using the ZEISS ATOS Q is straightforward and efficient:
- Apply Reference Points
Place reference markers on or around your part to create a local coordinate system. This ensures high repeatability and alignment throughout the scan process. - Use the Guided Workflow
The ZEISS ATOS Q software walks you through the setup. You’ll remove background data (like cables or fixtures), define the scan area, and initiate the process with a click. - Rotate & Scan
With the rotary table, scanning multiple sides is a breeze. Simply flip or rotate the part, scan again, and let the software handle alignment and mesh transformation. - Polygonize the Mesh
Once both sides are scanned, the software merges the data, polygonizes the mesh, and delivers a complete 3D model—ready for inspection or reverse engineering.
Where the ZEISS ATOS Q Shines
The ZEISS ATOS Q is designed for speed and repeatability, making it an ideal tool for:
- Reverse Engineering
- First Article Inspection
- Mold and Die Making
- Aerospace and Automotive Components
- Medical Device Scanning
- Additive Manufacturing (3D Printed Parts)
Its blue light sensor offers strong resistance to ambient light and excels on shiny or dark surfaces. Combine that with its fast scanning speed and automated capabilities, and you have a tool that reduces time per scan while improving data quality.
Integration and Output
The ZEISS ATOS Q outputs high-resolution mesh files compatible with most major software platforms. Whether you’re feeding data into CAD, inspection software, or digital archives, the scanner fits seamlessly into your digital workflow.
