About Laser Design and GKS Inspection Services

Laser Design, Inc. has been the leading supplier of ultra-precise, 3D laser scanning systems and services for over 20 years.  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 parts of virtually any size, shape, color, or material.  The company’s patented laser line-probe technology dramatically reduces scanning time by collecting data substantially faster than conventional metrology technologies.

Headquartered in Minneapolis, the company also has Regional Technical Services and Support Centers in Seattle and Detroit, and distributors throughout Europe, Asia, and North America.

Laser Design also operates GKS Inspection Services, an in-house service bureau division offering complete 3D scanning, reverse engineering, and dimensional inspection services. The company’s metrologists and engineers are experienced in the automotive, defense, electronics and many other manufacturing industries. GKS also provides terrestrial scanning services for digitizing large-scale objects, for example, bridges, buildings, power plants, mines, and ships.

GKS’ Michigan Lab is accredited by the A2LA for Mechanical Testing and Calibration and employs numerous CMMs, vision systems, 3D laser scanners, surface analyzers, and other inspection equipment. GKS also has international locations in India, Korea, China, Taiwan, Singapore, and the Netherlands.

Laser Design / GKS’ clients include leading U.S. and international manufacturers of electronic devices, cellular phones, plastics, automobiles, medical devices, testing equipment, electrical equipment, aerospace equipment, and numerous educational institutions, art and natural history museums, as well as government agencies.
