# FRAME

> PhotoRobot all-in-one machine combining a glass-plate turntable with a robotic camera arm, built for 3D modelling.

Also known as: PhotoRobot Frame. Category: Hardware.

FRAME is an all-in-one PhotoRobot workstation that combines a motorised turntable with an optical glass plate and a robotic camera arm. Camera and background travel around the product, so it can be photographed from above and from below the glass.

## How PhotoRobot uses it

FRAME has a 1300 mm glass plate, a 20 kg load capacity and dual-axis 360° rotation. It is designed to capture image galleries, single and multi-row spins and the photo sets needed for [photogrammetry](https://www.photorobot.com/glossary/what-is-photogrammetry-in-product-imaging) 3D models in a single click. Laser positioning, sensors and control units are built in, and it has a built-in web interface for testing and setup.
