Bold Laser Automation has released the LTX1260A 3D Inspection and Measurement and TMX Profile System, a next-generation solution designed for manufacturers requiring fast, high-precision inspection of delicate and critical components.

Engineered for medical devices, electronics, aerospace, and precision manufacturing, this system combines Keyence's LJ-X8020 3D scanner with the TMX-5006 profile measurement platform, offering noncontact, automated inspection for geometrical profiles and surface quality.

Applications include:

  • Fuel injector nozzles and micro fasteners
  • Medical hypodermics, catheters, stents, and guidewires
  • Biomedical textiles and microtubes
  • Precision nozzles for inkjet and spray devices
  • Optical fibers, glass tips, and other ultra-fine components.

"Our LTX system brings together advanced 3D scanning and profile measurement technologies into a single, operator-friendly platform," said Todd E. Lizotte, CEO and co-founder of Bold Laser Automation. "It not only accelerates inspection, but also provides the accuracy and reliability manufacturers across industries need to improve yield and meet demanding quality standards-from complex aerospace nozzles to precision medical devices."

Key features and benefits:

  • Simple, dual-station design: Performs 3D contamination detection and precision profile measurement using rotary and linear stages.
  • Ease of operation: Footswitch or push-button control acquires and stores measurements; optional touchscreen interface available.
  • Integrated software: Custom Bold Integration Suite with Keyence LJX and TMX software, offering real-time data storage, CSV/Excel export, and QA/QC reporting.
  • Automation ready: Semi-automated fixturing with soft-lock part handling supports integration and future, fully automated, production environments.
  • Compliance and safety: Built to UL, NFPA 79, and OSHA standards with enclosed design, seismic mounts, LED safety indicators, and comprehensive documentation.

The LTX1260A combines an ergonomic design with robust automation elements. With real-time data capture, integration with customer databases, and modular scalability, the system provides manufacturers with a path to higher throughput, consistent QA, and reduced risk of defects.
