The FARO® solution to optimize your assembly workflows

The world’s only all-in-one solution for laser-assisted templating and verification Managing large, heavy, physical templates costs time and money. And using them on the manufacturing floor leaves lots of room for human error — which results in waste and costly rework. How can companies today eliminate these problems? Is there a solution that can improve quality, lower costs, increase throughput and enable business growth?

FARO's commitment to its customers is to help them make better decisions faster — and the complete FARO Tracer Laser Projector and FARO BuildIT Projector Software solution is a prime example of this. When realized with the ScanAlign automatic alignment feature, you have what you need to optimize your workflow — saving time and money with increased precision and quality. Dramatically reduce the alignment time with ScanAlign ScanAlign is a feature which turns finding and measuring retro-targets into a one-click step. There’s absolutely no user intervention — it automatically aligns to retro-targets...

FARO Tracer Laser Projectors Advanced 3D laser imaging system for guided assembly and in-process verification Applications & Industries Shipbuilding and Marine Construction Automotive and Heavy Equipment Construction and Rigging; templating for pre-fabrication Reduces the time for layout, set-up and assembly, significantly increasing production throughput Facilitates standardized workflows and minimizes operator variations during assembly Detects and reduces manufacturing errors in real time which reduces scrap and rework Mitigates use of physical templates Represents a firstof-its-kind advanced...

Going beyond virtual templating and positioning, Tracer SI enables targetless, Feature-Based Alignment and In-Process Verification (IPV). The system accurately projects CAD-based laser images onto any surface, providing operators with an intuitive and virtual sequencing solution to outline parts, artifacts, or areas of interest. Both Laser Projectors, when paired with BuildIT Projector Software that has the new ScanAlign feature, can be used to automate alignment with retro-targets. In addition, proprietary IPV technology can scan assembled or placed components to ensure conformance and proper...
