APPLICATIONS

The FARO Laser Tracker ION accurately performs measurements within many applications throughout a wide range of industries. The ION offers improved methods of coordinate measurement and makes entirely new manufacturing methods possible.

Alignment

More accurate and less time-consuming than traditional methods
Frequent measurements and proper trending of distortions
Real-time measurement confirms tolerances and validates design

Installation

Lay out / level machine foundation
Prevent damage during the machine’s initial run
Reduce wear and tear on mechanical parts

Inspection

Compare complex geometry, surfaces and feature positions to nominal data
No need to move the part to a fixed inspection tool
Reduce production waste and non-conformance costs

Tool Building

Full volumetric accuracy tests (ensures parts are being assembled to the highest standard)
Verify dimensional integrity and repeatability of the tool (identify or preempt tool defects)
