Use of Laser Trackers
Use of Laser Trackers
(OP)
We are evaluating Laser Trackers for use in aircraft parts Jig alignment etc.
Some models come with interferometer included which we understand increases accuracy, with associated significant price increases.
Does anubody have any useful feedback on using Laser Trackers & in particular whether the inbuilt inteferometer is reallynecessary?

Do you know anyone there?
KENAT, probably the least qualified checker you'll ever meet...
RE: Use of Laser Trackers
If your part is small, use a CMM. It's much more accurate. However, a laser tracker is still better than using optics such as a theodolite.
Laser trackers are very impressive pieces of technology. To a hayseed like me, they are black magic!
