FARO Laser Trackers Dominate Global Market

Lake Mary, FL - FARO Technologies, Inc., provider of a complete line of portable CAM2 solutions, claims to have established itself as a market leader in laser tracker sales. The company shipped over 600 Laser Trackers in approximately three years – outselling their competitor by 50%, according to FARO.

The FARO Laser Tracker is a portable, computerized measurement device that creates a 3-D "blueprint" of large objects and parts up object's entire surface, the Tracker emits a laser beam that is reflected back from the target, allowing the system's laptop computer to simultaneously draw and record all of its 3-D measurements with up to .001" accuracy, according to FARO.

Engineers and designers use the data to reverse-engineer, improve or create new parts and products – or improve how they're made. Quality control personnel use it to verify that the parts have been made correctly, and, if not, where they need to be corrected, adds the company.
