Hexagon Manufacturing Intelligence launched the latest addition to its range of laser tracker systems. The Leica Absolute Tracker AT403 has been designed to offer excellent portable metrology performance, and presents improvements in speed and ease of measurement.
With full IP54 certification, an operating temperature range of -15°C to 45°C and the introduction of the RapidSight aim alignment tool, the Leica Absolute Tracker AT403 is able to provide CMM capabilities in a range of measurement environments. Portable usage is further enhanced by Wi-Fi connectivity, providing true access point functionality. The system’s updated distance meter technology is able to make improved use of the Leica B-Probe in measurement speed and usability. It also delivers measurement process speed improvements for reflector measurements and supports the newly introduced continuous measurement functionality, which allows for the measurement of moving points for the first time within this level of the Leica Absolute Tracker range.
“With this new release we’ve looked to build on the strengths of our existing laser tracker platform and deliver a new tool that really reflects the way we see our customers using our products,” said Matthias Saure, product manager at Hexagon. “That meant portability, robustness and usability were important concepts for us in this design – we want to give users the capability to quickly and easily get the measurements they need, wherever they need to be done.”
The Leica Absolute Tracker AT403 retains key features from its predecessors, such as the PowerLock function, full battery operation and a measurement volume of 320 meters.
