In the Industry 4.0 era, where precision and flexibility are imperative to maintain competitiveness, NM3D Ibérica reinforces its commitment to technological excellence by offering the API iLT Laser Tracker — one of the most compact and advanced three-dimensional measurement systems on the market.
Context and challenge
The API iLT represents a qualitative leap in dimensional metrology, incorporating laser interferometry technology for precise measurements in large volumes, with a range of up to 80 meters and an accuracy of ±15μm + 0.7μm/m. This portable and highly versatile solution enables 3D measurements with high accuracy, even in demanding industrial environments. Weighing less than 5 kg and featuring fully wireless operation, the iLT stands out for ease of transport and setup, adapting to confined spaces and field applications. Its structure integrates the controller into the equipment body itself, eliminating external cabling and simplifying station changes. The system operates on internal battery with autonomy up to 4 hours, extendable to 8 hours with an external power pack, enabling remote measurements or in hard-to-reach locations without compromising performance.
The solution or technology
Among the various technical features of the API iLT, the following stand out: AutoLock, which automatically restores laser emission after interruptions; Active environmental compensation, with integrated sensors that adjust measurements based on temperature, humidity and atmospheric pressure; Dust and moisture protection according to IEC 60529 standard, for operation in adverse environments; Compatibility with a wide range of tactile probes and laser scanning solutions, including 6DOF measurement capabilities. Technical Specifications: iLT - Laser Technology ADM-3D, Maximum range 25m|50m, Accuracy ±15 μm + 2μm/m, Weight 4.9 kg, Wireless operation, SMR measurement, Integrated controller, Battery operation up to 8 hours. iLTX - Laser Technology ADM-3D/6D, Maximum range 50m|80m, Accuracy ±15 μm + 0.7μm/m, Weight 4.9 kg, Wireless operation, SMR measurement, Portable probing (vProbe), Portable laser scanning (iScan), Integrated controller, Battery operation up to 8 hours, 6DOF active target.
Industrial applications
This equipment addresses the critical needs of sectors such as aeronautics, automotive industry, energy, heavy equipment, robotics and defense, among others — where traceability, efficiency and reliability of measurement processes are crucial for dimensional control and to ensure compliance with the highest quality standards. The iLT is a strategic choice for companies seeking reliable, mobile and intuitive solutions for tasks such as part alignment, tool calibration, dimensional analysis, process control and high-precision inspection.
