You cannot avoid a maintenance contract. The contract ensure calibrations and reparations.
If you don't let your scanner be maintained for a longer term, you can conclude a maintenance contract only after getting a certification. The certification costs 2500 to 3000 Euro. If errors were detected, an extra invoice could be the consequence. Only then, maintenance is available for the scanner.
The maintenance contract for 3 years costs about 8600 EUR. Thus, it doesn't matter whether you buy a new scanner or a pre-owned scanner - You cannot avoid the maintenance contract. Customers often want to demand the certifications of the manufacturer when you use the laser scanner. The manufacturer recommends a calibration once a year.
