SL Laser Systems AG & FACC AG - Working relationship projects bright future
 |
| Applications in the composites industries for 2D and 3D laser projectors are fast gaining ground - especially now in the aerospace industries. ?Fischer Advanced Composite Components (FACC) was founded by the Fischer Sporting Goods Group in 1989. Within a few years, FACC quickly became one of the leading, pioneering forces in the area of research, development, production and maintenance of composite aviation components for such company's as AIRBUS and Boeing. Prior to a working partnership with SL Laser AG, the majority of the manufacturing was done with the aid of manual templates. The templates were manually positioned into the moulds and repeatedly inserted for different layers. This production method is very time-consuming and inaccurate due to the constant removal and placement of the template. Also, the template was being aligned manually, often to pen lines, which also carried its own level of inaccuracy, therefore adding to the overall tolerance issue. This method also added a great deal of unnecessary cost to the production process, hindering FACC's efficient production methodology and overall profitability. In 2002, FACC AG looked for alternatives to this manual process and found a possible solution by utilizing laser projection systems. |

If you're part of a larger organisation that takes a lot of measurements... and create a lot of CAD drawings... this could be what you've been dreaming of.
The SL Laser | ProCollector is a new product from German company Seiffert (SL Laser).
geo-Fennel's new range for 2010
26 new products have just been released onto the world market, including in Australia and New Zealand via Laserman Technologies. Rotating lasers now include standard red and optional green automatic self-levelling lasers with improved construction and accuracy. A new compact line laser builds on the success of the FL40-3Liner, with extended vertical axis lines now forming a plumb-up cross-hair in addition to a plumb-down laser point.
New for this year are two more laser distance meters from Leica - the new DISTO D5 and D8. Read More...

Read More...Assembly at the speed of light
Laserman Technologies have commenced marketing the SL-Laser ProDirector 2D and 3D Laser Template Projector to the Metal Engineering sector. The lasers are made in Germany, and will support Engineering shops utilise assembly processes and CNC machines by better enabling fixtures and jigs placement and metal part placement prior to building.
Skills shortage? Solved.
You don’t have to be a genius to solve the skills shortage problem.
It can all be done with laser technology. Don’t be afraid, it’s easier than you think.
The national skill shortage scare affects us all. We take some comfort in the fact that the government has put The National Skills Shortage Strategy in place, but we still experience the problem. No matter what business we’re in, the need to save time and money, make fewer mistakes, and have a greater control on quality is part of our daily manufacturing lives.
