3-D Laser Tracking Metrology Services Division Launched by Venerable Machining Firm, Field System Machining

3-D Laser Tracker Portable Solutions Now Available on Immediate Notice, Throughout the Western Hemisphere

Field System Machining (FSM) has added laser tracker portable on-site three dimensional (3D laser) portable imaging metrology to its arsenal of on-site industrial on-site portable machining and machinery repair weapons. FSM has provided customers with optical and laser metrology solutions for decades, including FSM-supplied optical metrology, and, up until now, third-party laser metrology. More recently, however, obtaining third party laser three dimensional metrology has proved challenging.

While FSM's on-site portable laser metrology partners have provided exemplary service over the years, it was determined that the only way to guarantee that FSM customers received laser tracker alignments, laser tracker surveys, 3-D laser machinery alignments and other on-site laser metrology data services - on time and at reasonable prices - was to vertically integrate those services into the Field System Machining on-site machining offerings.

"We need to provide the solutions our customers need, when they need them, not when our partners are available," said Tony Piwowarczyk, Field System Machining’s Business Development Director and marketing macher. "We can always shoot optics, and we have been doing that ourselves for decades but, on certain projects, three dimensional laser tracking metrology is the fastest measurement method available. We can no longer be dependent upon the availability of third-party metrology services - while some of our three dimensional on-site portable laser tracker metrology partners are outstanding assets to our clients, those partners are not always available. Other laser metrology partners do outstanding work but at twice the price and double or triple the turnaround time, while we are internally capable."

The time for Field System Machining to provide its own on-site laser alignment, laser three dimensional surveying and laser 3-D machinery imaging portable solutions has arrived. Since each laser tracker costs $120,000 and each laser survey crew requires thousands of dollars of training, in addition to master machinist expertise, FSM determined that the only way to make the investment ROI-reasonable was to offer on-site portable laser tracker solutions to not only its on-site machining clients but to all clients requiring portable, on site or field three dimensional (3D) laser tracker metrology solutions.

During 2012, Field System Machining expects to grow its laser tracker metrology survey fleet from one laser tracker and one two-man survey crew, to two laser trackers and two, two-man survey crews.
