Leica Introduces New Laser Trackers

 

The Metrology Division of Leica Geosystems AG has recently launched a full line of new Laser Tracker systems. These portable coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) come with many new and improved features and were designed to offer class-leading accuracy and dependability. They will all be on display at EuroMold 2005 in Frankfurt, Germany, November 30–December 3.

The lineup of innovations starts with the LT640 Laser Tracker, optimized for corner cube reflector inspection within a measurement volume up to 40 m, and its Absolute Distance Meter (ADM) sibling, the LTD640, whose ADM technology allows for faster measurement through reliable automatic beam capture.

The short-range LTD706 is intended for portable CMM jobs having a measurement radius of no more than 6 m. The LTD709 is tailored to meet the needs of automotive industry customers, while the LTD840 is optimized for aerospace applications and enables manufacturers to wirelessly probe very large parts with just one setup.

Also new are the T-Probe II, the second installment of Leica Geosystems’ walk-around solution for armless and wireless probing, and refinements to the hardware and ergonomics of the Leica T-Scan high-speed hand portable CMM scanner.

“With the launch of our new lineup of Leica Laser Trackers and the continued development of Leica T-Probe and Leica T-Scan, we have actively responded to the needs of our customers, giving them a broad choice in selecting a laser tracking system appropriate for their applications,” said Daniel Moser, product manager of the Leica Metrology Division. “For example, we now offer a Laser Tracker whose design is a direct result of honouring the wishes of our automotive sector customers.

“The emphasis with the entire Leica Laser Tracker system is on the word system,” Moser explained. “Our portable CMM products seamlessly integrate into the Leica Laser Tracker solution.”
