Do you scan over long distances and need big reference spheres that withstand falls and impacts without any problems? Then benefit from the very high robustness and long durability of the XXL FLEXI reference sphere.
The XXL FLEXI reference sphere, with a diameter of 200 mm, can be easily scanned from long distances and all directions. Thanks to the removable magnet, the measurement sphere can be used flexibly. Quality: Made in Germany.
What makes reference spheres FLEXI so unique?
Precise geometry - Highly accurate geometry is particularly important in this sector and allows the use for highly accurate applications (e. g. stripe-light-scanners) beside the standard usage in the field of laser scanning
Unique materials - The sphere Flexi which is developed for daily use is made of unique material components
Integrated shock absorber - The first sphere that can withstand impacts and achieve the initial state after a few seconds
Excellent reflective properties - In contrast to our other reference spheres the surface is not painted; a special surface coating ensures optimum reflectivity and durability
Product characteristics
- Diameter of 200mm
- Resistant materials allow daily use and ensure durability
- Integrated shock absorber assists in withstanding impacts and protects the surface coating (thus, chipping paint is a thing of the past)
- Spherical shape allows the highest possible scanning efficiency from various directions and it has been proven to be the most effective laser scanning target
- Long special adapter (female thread M8) for Mini Prism for Reference Sphere XXL (item no.: 030-10226)
- Reference sphere is a special model made of a combination of different plastics with special surface coating for optimum reflectivity
- Optionally, we offer the tripod adapter for reference spheres (item no.: 030-10171) for attachment on tripods etc.
- Case dimensions: 575 x 470 x 270 mm
- Case with precut foam insert for safe transport
- suitable for operations in a temperature range from -40 to +75 degrees
Designated use
- The reference sphere XXL is used for objects with great dimensions. You can position this sphere in a distance that is about 2/3 farther away than it is possible with traditional spheres.
- Easy and quick attachment to magnetic surfaces due to a centered magnet base.
- Connection of point cloud with existing fixed points by using reference sphere adapters.
Field of application
- scan object with great target ranges, e. g. for a site plan, or as a permanently visible master sphere during the scanning of big buildings or halls

Notes
- The reference sphere Flexi is not only very solid due to the integrated shock absorber but can be used easily at various weather conditions.
- Due to the low magnetic field strength of the magnets, they are not classified as dangerous goods in air freight if properly packaged.
Safety instructions
- Wearers of pacemakers should be particularly careful when handling magnets or magnetic systems. A minimum distance of 20cm from the magnet must be maintained, otherwise temporary malfunctions of the pacemaker may occur.
- The use of magnets or magnet systems in explosion-proof rooms is critical. If the magnets are dropped, they may shatter and cause sparks.
- Do not store or bring into the proximity of magnetic storage media.
- Magnets can attract iron parts. Improper handling can result in crushing.
- Properly dispose of in accordance with Directives 91/689/EEC and 94/62EU, as well as local, regional and national regulations.
- If the nickel layer comes into contact with the skin, hypersensitivity may result in allergic reactions. (Depending on type
