FARO Tracer Laser Projectors for Manufacturing

Accurate projection of laser outlines onto large 3D surfaces

FARO Tracer Laser Projectors for Manufacturing​, by FARO, is an innovative solution that eliminates the challenges of using physical templates by projecting accurate laser outlines onto 3D surfaces, enabling efficient work sequencing, part placement verification, and composite ply layup.

Managing large, heavy, physical templates costs time and money. And using them on the manufacturing floor leaves room for human error, which can result in waste and costly rework. Virtual templating with Tracer Laser Projectors eliminates all these problems. They project a laser outline onto a 3D surface or object that operators can use to quickly and accurately sequence work and position components. Use Tracer Laser Projectors to position and verify part placement, sequence and guide composite ply layup, and perform visual verification and paint masking.

Business Value of Tracer Laser Projectors

  • Improve Quality
    Minimize operator variations during assembly with accurate guidance and standardized workflows.
  • Lower Costs
    Eliminate physical templates and reduce scrap and rework from manufacturing errors.
  • Increase Throughput
    Reduce time for setup, layout and assembly.
  • Boost Revenue Generation
    Accelerate engineering change orders (ECOs) onto the production floor.
  • Enhance Yield
    Eliminate assembly errors.

Performance

  • TracerSI Laser Projector: The All-in-One Projection and Advanced Verification Tool
    The TracerSI is a powerful and extremely cost-effective production tool. Not only does it assist operators with assembly and layout, but its integrated scanner makes in-process verification fast and easy.
  • TracerM Laser Projector: For Projection and Visual Verification
    The TracerM assists operators with all assembly and layout tasks on the production floor, and makes it easy to visually verify proper placement.
