Laser alignment systems are becoming more and more common in production facilities, manufacturing houses and are even used by installation teams on customer sites. The reason for this growth is the accuracy and time-saving features laser alignment systems have to offer. Whereas before a laser alignment system required lengthy calibration and installation, we have now simplified our design to accommodate accurate, simple, on the fly measurements, which can be calculated by a user without the need for training.
Our STRAIGHTliner series is pre-calibrated and delivered with the laser and electronic target needed to perform a positioning or monitoring task. The STRAIGHTliner ECO features seven LEDs on each axis representing distance from the target’s centre, which can clearly be seen over distances up to 10 m. The STRAIGHTliner ECO target features an accuracy of 0.1 mm over a 10 mm² target area.
The STRAIGHTliner PRO implements a two-dimensional Position Sensing Detector (PSD) to achieve a positional accuracy of 0.001 mm over a 10 mm² target area and can be connected to a windows based PC via the provided Bluetooth dongle. The wireless link communicates with the STRAIGHTliner software that displays a graphical representation of the laser position as well as providing a data recording facility for record keeping.
