XGRIDS K1 Extension Pole Kit – Remote 3D Scanning Support Set

The XGRIDS K1 Extension Pole Kit is a specialist accessory for the XGRIDS Lixel K1 3D Scanner. It is designed to increase the flexibility and efficiency of 3D Scanning. The kit consists of a telescopic pole extending up to 2 metres in length, allowing the scanner to be secured above the operator's hand level. This solution provides access to hard-to-reach locations and extends the field of view — particularly important for professional tasks requiring high precision and data integrity.

Purpose and Features

The primary purpose of the kit is to expand the capabilities of the XGRIDS K1 scanner, giving it greater versatility across a wide range of conditions. The telescopic construction allows the length to be adjusted easily up to 2 metres, providing a significant increase in scanning height. This is particularly useful when working with tall objects, building façades, ceilings, and other elements that are difficult to capture from a standard angle.

The remote 3D Scanning set is designed with the Lixel-K1 scanner's specifications in mind, including its lightweight build (approximately 1 kg with battery) and mounting characteristics. To minimise vibrations and wobble that can negatively affect Point Cloud quality, the pole is constructed from a lightweight yet robust aluminium alloy. Reliable locking mechanisms ensure a stable scanner position, preventing rotation or changes in tilt angle during 3D Scanning.

Key Advantages of the Extension Pole Kit

Using the XGRIDS K1 Extension Pole Kit offers a number of significant benefits:

• Increased Viewing Height: raising the scanner to a height of up to 2 metres provides a wider field of view, which is especially valuable when scanning ceilings, roofs, and tall architectural elements.
• Access to Difficult Locations: with the extension, objects positioned high up or behind obstacles can be scanned without the need for ladders, improving safety and reducing setup time.
• Reduction of Geometric Distortions: scanning from a greater height helps avoid reflections and glare from nearby surfaces, resulting in a cleaner and more accurate Point Cloud.
• Convenience and Time Saving: work becomes more efficient thanks to the ability to scan large objects — such as façades or bridges — with fewer movements.
• Maintained Mobility: the telescopic construction makes the pole convenient to transport and store, without compromising the portability of the XGRIDS K1 scanner itself.

Areas of Application

• Architecture and Restoration: scanning of façades, vaults, mouldings, and other architectural details at height.
• Construction and Quality Control: inspection of roofs, engineering installations, and monitoring of joints and connections in hard-to-access locations.
• Infrastructure: scanning of bridges, overpasses, pillars, and tunnels.
• Surveying and Mapping: extending the coverage area during the scanning of terrain and territories.
• Inspections and Monitoring: assessing the condition of roofs, gutters, and other elevated elements without the need for lifting equipment.

Technical Specifications

• Compatibility: XGRIDS Lixel-K1 3D Scanner.
• Mounting Type: proprietary XGRIDS connector/adapter.
• Maximum Length: 2 metres.
• Material: lightweight anodised aluminium alloy.
• Weight: approximately 0.72 kg.

Usage Limitations

When using the extension pole at its maximum length, the potential increase in vibrations and the load on the operator should be taken into account. However, thanks to the lightweight nature of the K1 scanner and the well-considered design of the pole, these factors have been minimised.
