Laser Design, Inc.

Laser Design Inc. is a company headquartered in Minneapolis, MN that designs, manufactures, and sells 3D laser scanners used to digitally capture the shape of physical objects such as free-form surfaces and complex part geometries.

Laser Design has been a supplier of high precision 3D scanner and 3D laser scanning services since 1987. The company’s patented line-sensor technology reduces scanning time by collecting data quickly. [ [http://www.google.com/patents?id=CMAdAAAAEBAJ&dq=Laser+Alignment+and+Control+System Laser Design/ 3D Scanner Laser Alignment & Control System Patent] ] Surveyor 3D laser digitizing systems quickly and accurately measure parts of all sizes, especially those with complex geometry. Rapid inspection and verification applications, including process control and in-line inspection, reverse engineering, rapid prototyping, promise to be a major consumer of laser scanning systems in the future.

Laser Design received the Inc. 500 Fastest Growing Company awards in 2007 [http://www.inc.com/inc5000/2007/company-profile.html?id=200719960 Inc. 500 Fastest Growing Companies] ] and also operates [http://www.gks.com GKS Inspection Services] , an in-house service bureau division offering 3D scanning, reverse engineering, and dimensional inspection services. GKS also provides terrestrial scanning services for digitizing large objects, for example bridges, buildings, power plants, mines, and ships.

GKS Inspection Services' Michigan facility is accredited by the [http://www.a2la.org A2LA] (American Association for Laboratory Accreditation) in Mechanical Testing and Calibration. This means the GKS laboratory meets the requirements of ISO/IEC 17025 "General Requirements for the Competence of Calibration and Testing Laboratories," which is equivalent to the relevant requirements of the ISO 9000 series of standards and any additional program requirements in the Mechanical Testing field. GKS is also compliant with the QS-9000 standards developed by the AIAG (Automotive Industry Action Group).

Laser Design and GKS Inspection Service clients include leading U.S. companies such as: the United States Navy, Brooklyn College, National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Marshall University, 3M, Rob Dyrdek from Rob and Big, Eaton Corporation, Stratasys, Medtronic, General Electric, Plantronics, BorgWarner, Austin Group, Hyundai, NUWC and others. Many Educational Institutes have done extensive research papers with Laser Design 3D laser scanners. [http://www.encyclopedia.com/doc/1G1-163703951.html Virginia Polytech Educational Institute] ]
