Lightweight 3D printer surface scanner for a sub-micron bed mesh in seconds.
Beacon is so fast, it scans right before the first layer, measuring exactly what you’re printing on.
Direct nozzle touch sensing for automatic Z-offset with forces < 30 grams typical. No additional hardware needed.
Beacon directly measures distance for rapid mesh construction at up to 500mm/s, without ever moving the z axis.
Meticulously optimized to achieve 0.5um resolution at 1k samples per second with <350nm typical standard deviation.
Rated up to 115°C ambient and designed for minimal thermal drift and equipped with active temperature compensation.
Klipper’s first high temperature rated accelerometer for simplifying resonance measurement and compensation.
Beacon uses eddy current to scan your print surface at the sub-micron level for consistent results and high repeatability.
Minimal wear and tear on machine and print surface.
