LK Metrology unveils blue laser scanner for CMMs

A next-generation laser scanner designed for use on CMMs has been launched by LK Metrology. Building on the success of the L100, LK says the new L100NX introduces advanced blue laser technology for superior scanning performance, accuracy and user experience.

Unlike its predecessor, which utilised red laser light, the new scanner employs a 450 nm blue light laser that significantly reduces noise in scan data, resulting in cleaner and more reliable measurements.

The advance is particularly beneficial for high-precision applications where data integrity is critical, such as in the aerospace and automotive sectors.
