Faster Large-Scale Laser Scanning



Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence, a metrology and manufacturing solution specialist, has announced the Leica Absolute Scanner LAS-XL, an ultra-large scale portable laser scanner. Designed for industries and applications where speed of measurement and metrology-level accuracy are indispensable, the expanded measurement field and point acquisition rate of the LAS-XL means large parts and surfaces can be fully digitized in far less time than before.

Operating on the same flying-dot scanning technology as the Leica Absolute Scanner LAS, the LAS-XL benefits from a scan-line width of up to 24" (600 mm) and a measurement stand-off distance of up to 3'28"(1 m). The flexibility this delivers makes the LAS-XL as suitable for mapping large blade surfaces as it is for digitizing aircraft and rail carriage interiors. Accurate to within just 150 microns, the LAS-XL is suitable for the wide range of applications for which increased measurement speed is valuable.

"What we are seeing with our customers is that there is a huge range of applications out there for which much improved speed of measurement is more critical than unbeatable accuracy," said Daniel Moser, Technical Product Director at Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence. "The LAS-XL is our attempt to meet the needs of this part of the market that has until now been under-served by the metrology industry. Absolute Accuracy is a key part of our product philosophy, but sometimes really great accuracy done really quickly is the better solution."

The LAS-XL is compatible with all Leica Absolute Tracker AT960 models.
