The company recently moved
its Seattle operations into an office in the Fremont area and installed
several of its high-end scanning systems and an array of specialized test
equipment there. The larger office was needed in order to accommodate the
additional equipment and growing staff in the area. Jonathan Zora, Customer
Service Manager, relocated recently from the Minneapolis office to Seattle.
He works directly with the developers to resolve customer problems quickly.
Thoreson said that Laser Design also hired a new Production Manager and
Senior Software Engineer to round out its team.
Laser Design’s Seattle
technology office continues to test new platforms for their laser scanning
systems and integrate them with the best of breed. Currently, Thoreson and
his staff are working on a special project to improve the lasers’
triangulation accuracy and data capture speed. Other projects for advancing
the technology are also on the docket.
The company eventually
hopes to expand the role of the Seattle office to also provide contract
laser scanning services. Thoreson noted that the Seattle area was rich in
terms of aircraft and high-tech manufacturing companies and that Laser
Design was ideally suited to meet the area’s increasing need for 3D laser
scanning services and systems which help companies improve the quality of
their products and bring innovations to market faster.
Laser Design, Inc. has been the leading supplier of ultra-precise, 3D laser
scanning systems and services since 1987. Used for capturing the 3D shape
of objects with complex geometries and free-form surfaces, Laser Design’s
Surveyor line of automated and portable scanning systems are ideal for 3D
scanning applications involving inspection and reverse engineering of
complex shaped plastic and metal parts. The company’s patented laser
line-probe technology dramatically reduces scanning time by collecting data
substantially faster and more accurately than conventional metrology
technologies. Laser Design also operates GKS Inspection
Services (www.gks3d.com),
an in-house service division offering complete 3D scanning, modeling, and
dimensional measurement services.
