Laser Alignment Specialists
We make the best laser alignment systems in the world!
Precision alignment is all we do. For over 50 years, Hamar Laser has been a world leader in laser alignment. We design, manufacture, sell and service high-precision laser alignment and calibration systems for virtually any alignment application.
We know what works…and what doesn’t. We design our lasers to be the best solution for a given application. We don’t believe in “one-size-fits-all” products that a lot of our competitors offer. Buying a Hamar means the job will be done the right way, with unbeatable accuracy and as fast as possible.
70%
Reduced Alignment Downtime
Our lasers align machines up to 70% faster than conventional methods.
10X
Ultra-Accurate Measurements
Our lasers are up to 10 times more accurate than competing systems.

What Makes Hamar Better?
Ultra-Accuracy
Our laser planes have a flatness accuracy of up to .000015 in/ft. (0.0013 mm/m), flatter than any competing laser, usually by a factor of 8!
High-Speed Alignments
Renowned for their ease of use and fast setups, our systems significantly speed up alignments with real-time data feedback and simultaneous multi-axis adjustment.
Versatility
With 16 different laser alignment products, we have a laser to fit virtually any alignment application for checking concentricity, flatness, straightness, squareness, parallelism, rotation axis collinearity and spindle tramming.
Alignment Experience
More than 5 decades of alignment experience goes into every product, along with our 28 patents! We know laser alignment!
Innovation
We design innovative laser systems engineered for specific applications, not inferior and under-performing “one-size-fits-all” products.
Service
Family owned and operated, we make and service our lasers right here in the USA, providing our customers with a high level of personal service.
