Revopoint MetroY Ultra 3D Scanner, Up to 90 FPS, for 3D Printing,

The Revopoint MetroY Ultra 3D Scanner is an industrial-focused measuring and modeling tool designed for reverse engineering, tight tolerance inspection, and 3D printing. It addresses the common pain points of complex digitizing jobs by pairing high-precision blue laser hardware with wireless portability, making it a strong match for engineers and designers working on small to medium-sized parts.

Hardware flexibility is a central strength here. The unit offers five separate capture modes, including 34 laser cross-lines for broad surfaces, 15 parallel lines for fine detail, a single line for deep recesses, full-field blue structured light for marker-free jobs, and an automatic turntable setting. Because it relies on blue laser tech, you can directly scan black, metallic, or high-gloss components without coating them in scanning spray. Furthermore, the optical system handles outdoor environments in direct sunlight up to 100,000 lux.

Workflow speed and mobility are well supported by the hardware and companion software. The scanner reaches up to 90 frames per second when connected to an NVIDIA GPU (or 60 fps on a standard CPU). With built-in Wi-Fi 6 and the included 5500 mAh battery grip, you can scan tether-free for roughly 2.5 hours while monitoring real-time data through Revo Mirror on a mobile device, tablet, or computer. The included Revo Metro suite manages point cloud editing, multi-mode alignment, and exports directly to standard formats like PLY, OBJ, STL, ASC, 3MF, GLTF, and FBX.

There are a few trade-offs to keep in mind before choosing this setup. Reaching the full 90 fps capture speed requires an NVIDIA graphics card, while CPU-only systems top out at 60 fps. Additionally, the 2.5-hour battery life means full-day fieldwork away from outlets will require planned recharging breaks or access to supplemental power.

Verdict: The Revopoint MetroY Ultra is an excellent choice for technical professionals and serious makers who need industrial-grade accuracy without the hassle of scanning sprays or tethered cables. If your workflow involves shiny metal parts, detailed dimensional inspection, or outdoor data capture, this scanner delivers high capability in a mobile package.

• Single-Frame Precision: Up to 0.01 mm
• Volumetric Accuracy: 0.015 + 0.04 mm x L (m)
• Maximum Capture Speed: Up to 90 fps (NVIDIA GPU) / 60 fps (CPU)
• Battery Capacity: 5500 mAh (approx. 2.5 hours runtime)
• Wireless Connection: Wi-Fi 6
• Lighting Resistance: Up to 100,000 lux
• Export Formats: PLY, OBJ, STL, ASC, 3MF, GLTF, FBX

A great fit if you:

• Need tight-tolerance measurement and reverse engineering precision down to 0.01 mm.
• Regularly scan dark, metallic, or high-gloss parts and want to avoid spray prep and cleanup.
• Work on-site or outdoors under direct sunlight up to 100,000 lux.
• Want untethered operation using Wi-Fi 6 and an included battery grip.

Consider something else if you:

• Need all-day field runtime beyond 2.5 hours without access to a charging source.
• Only have basic computer hardware and cannot utilize an NVIDIA GPU for top frame rates.

Do I need to spray dark or shiny surfaces before scanning?
No, the blue laser technology allows direct scanning of black, metallic, and reflective components without using scanning spray.

What file formats can the included software export?
The Revo Metro software can export 3D files in PLY, OBJ, STL, ASC, 3MF, GLTF, and FBX formats.

How long does the battery grip last during use?
The included 5500 mAh battery grip provides approximately 2.5 hours of continuous operation.

Can this scanner be used in outdoor sunlight?
Yes, the laser-scanning modes are capable of operating outdoors in bright sunlight up to 100,000 lux.
