Laser Scanners
ATT Metrology now offers the most advanced large volume laser scanning, portable CMM system, consisting of the
LTD840 Leica Laser Tracker and the Leica T-Probe and T-Scan combination. This 3D laser scanner coordinate measurement system can
be used in many measurement environments to include aerospace, automotive, and shipbuilding industries. ATT will
gladly review with a customer the strengths of this laser scanning system and how it would apply to their specific needs. ATT also
offers many Third Party Software options based on customer need and request. Equipment laser scanner and laser tracker leasing inquiries can be addressed
to Joan Ihlenfeldt at ATT's Redmond Office.
LTD840 Leica Laser Tracker, Leica T-Probe and Leica T-Scan combination
Leica's LTD840 Leica Laser Tracker is the undisputed touchstone for aerospace portable CMM applications, with a wireless probing range of
up to 15m (49ft). LTD840s high-end specifications translate into a probing measurement volume of up to 30m (98ft),
enabling us to conduct demanding wireless probing of very large parts with just one setup. The LTD840's measurement
range reaches a full 40m (131ft) when used with a corner cube reflector. This laser tracker delivers the fastest
measurement cycle in the industry for high point density (3,000 points/second). We rely on state-of-the-art solutions
such as the armless and wireless Leica T-Probe II and the high-speed hand scanner Leica T-Scan that work in tandem with
the LTD840 Leica Laser Tracker.
The wireless Leica T-Probe enables ATT to measure aircraft tool and production parts at a much faster rate. Reducing the number of
tracker relocations translates into a significant cost and time savings. An additional benefit is that the Leica T-Probe has the ability to measure
or inspect points in deep pockets or recesses that could not be accessed in the past.
The Leica T-Scan is a perfect example of Dimensional Laser Scanning technology that will revolutionize the way parts are designed and inspected.
The Leica T-Scan, coupled with software working directly with the CAD model of a part to be manufactured, will be able to
scan all the critical features of a part very rapidly. It is no longer necessary for the engineer to laboriously detail
discrete dimensions and tolerances for every critical feature. This process enables two key aerospace initiatives, which
are direct CAD analysis and reduced dimensions and tolerancing.
Because of the mobility of this laser scanning hardware, our engineers can inspect a part while it is on the milling machine that is
producing the part, or ATT crews can go directly out on the shop floor where it is being assembled and perform a very
complex and accurate inspection on site.
