The L-705 Laser has been a proven performer in the aerospace industry for many years. Currently, several aircraft builders are using the L-705 to accurately align hinge-pin bushings in tooling fixtures and vertical and horizontal stabilizers. It is a versatile laser system that can be used for almost any type of bore alignment.

Virtual Target Reduces Costly Fixturing

HLI developed the world's only virtual target (T-271) that is used for conventional through-type bushings and spherical-bearing, hinge-line bushings. It is called a virtual target because it functions as if it were in the actual center of the respective bearing without actually being inside it. This means that no matter what attitude the spherical bearing is in, the target center readings are accurate. This reduces costly fixturing needed with conventional hinge-line alignment methods.

L-705 Dramatically Improved Efficiency

The first hinge line system Hamar Laser delivered revolutionized the aerospace industry. An 8-hour job that required eight workers using four theodolites was reduced to a job that took less than an hour and only two workers, with significantly higher accuracy and more repeatable results.

Laser Fits Into Standard Optical Tooling Fixtures

The laser has a standard optical-tooling OD of 2.250" (57.15 mm). The centering of the laser beam to the housing is controlled to extremely tight tolerances, usually less that .0005" (.013 mm). Built-in micrometers on the back of the laser control the angle adjustment of the laser beam. These two features eliminate the steering fixture and a reference target, making the task of aligning large floor assembly jigs fast and accurate.

Wireless Interface Reduce Wire Clutter

HLI's new wireless computer interface eliminates cables hanging in the work area, improving safety and speeds setup. The interface has a wireless range of 60 feet (20 M)
