Discover how Arius is harnessing the power of ABB Robotics with our Moneta™ mobile scanning system, bringing forensic-grade preservation to site-specific masterpieces, frescos, and heritage murals.
In partnership with ABB Robotics, a global leader in cutting-edge robotic technologies, Arius has developed Moneta™, the world’s first mobile ultra-high-resolution 3D laser scanner. While our stationary systems are designed for long-term conservation projects, the Moneta™ system utilizes the mechanical precision of ABB’s robotic arms to bring that same forensic rigour to site-specific artworks, with 8x faster scanning capabilities.
Most importantly, this partnership solves a critical challenge in art stewardship. The preservation of works that simply cannot be moved. Whether it is a historical fresco in a remote chapel, large-scale urban graffiti, or architectural heritage features, our collaboration with ABB ensures that no masterpiece has to be left undocumented. The robotic integration allows for a fluid, non-invasive sweep of uneven surfaces, capturing every sub-millimetre detail with absolute safety and stability.
Moneta represents the next frontier in cultural stewardship. By mounting Arius’s patented laser technology onto the ABB GoFa collaborative robot arm, we have engineered a system that brings world-class digitization directly to your artworks, wherever they reside.
ABB is a pioneering technology leader in robotics and machine automation, providing innovative solutions for a wide range of industries. A key component of our mobile scanning success is the integration of the ABB GoFa™. This next-generation collaborative robotic arm is designed for close, safe interaction with human operators.
The GoFa provides the smooth, high-precision motion control required for our Moneta system to navigate the complex topographies of delicate artworks. Its advanced sensors and collaborative design mean that our technicians and museum conservators can work directly alongside the robot in the field, programming it to capture every minute detail. ABB’s commitment to safety and mechanical innovation makes them the essential partner for Arius in our mission to bring forensic-grade ADMF scanning to the world’s most significant site-specific artworks.
