L-732 Precision Dual Scan® Laser

L-732 Precision Dual Scan® Laser

Description

Designed primarily for lower-accuracy flatness, straightness and squareness measurements, the L-732 Precision Dual Scan® Laser has 2 auto-rotating laser planes, 1 vertical and 1 horizontal.  Both laser planes are flat within 2 arc seconds (.00012 in./ft. or 0.01 mm/m) in a 360º sweep and 1 arc second in a 90º sweep. The laser planes are perpendicular within 2 arc seconds.  It also features 3-arc-second illuminated level vials.

The laser is mounted on an adjustable base with coarse pitch, roll and yaw adjustments, so that each laser plane can project the measurement reference out to 100 feet (30.5 m) in radius in all directions. The laser is completely self-contained and can operate on battery or AC power.

Applications

  • For alignments with tolerances of .00012 in./ft. or 0.01 mm/m or greater
  • Measuring and aligning:
    • The flatness and straightness of almost any surface (squares, frames, ways, flanges, circles, etc.)
    • Leveling almost any surface (squares, frames, ways, flanges, circles, etc.)
    • The flatness and straightness of horizontal and vertical surfaces
    • The straightness of horizontally and vertically traversing axes of machine tools
    • The squareness of vertical to horizontal surfaces, up to 100 feet (30.5 m)
    • The parallelism of vertical or horizontal surfaces
  • Checking plumb of a vertical surface up to 100 feet (30.5 m)
  • Checking machine tool guideway twist and parallelism between guideways
  • Measuring surfaces up to 200 feet (61 meters) long with 1 setup
  • Water-jet cutting machines
  • Laser-cutting machines
  • Roll forming machines
