CAD-based virtual templating eliminates the need for physical templates and hard tooling. The risk of human error and costly rework/scrap during assembly is significantly reduced. Manufacturers can avoid the time and expense associated with using large, heavy templates while significantly improving quality control processes. An easy-to-use operator interface via powerful FARO BuildIT Projector Software minimizes both the time and skill required for operation.
Intended for large-scale applications, FARO Tracer Laser Projectors offer accurate, variable and long-range 3D projection distances of 1.8 to 15.2 meters (6 to 50 feet), with a projection envelope of up to 15.2 x 15.2 meters (50 x 50 feet).
Refer to the table below to choose the Tracer model that is best suited for your requirements.
