Infinity Laser Measuring LLC

A measurement system for frames of heavy duty trucks and trailers does not require a dimensional reference database. A plurality of electronic targets are attached to selected target points on the frame. A position of the laser scanner from the selected target points is determined. Measurement data for additional targets is determined. The frame dimensions are then analyzed for defects that are greater than a pre-set tolerance. Measurements outside of a tolerance range can be flagged with contrasting color. The results of the frame analysis are shown on the user's screen, on the electronic target, and can be printed out or emailed for future inspection. The frame can be repaired while the targets and laser scanner are still deployed so that the measurement system can continue to display the status of the measurement points in real time and the success of the repairs can be confirmed.

Vehicle and trailer frame measuring system

A laser measurement system operates to identify locations of points of a vehicle in a three-dimensional space and determine whether the points of the vehicle are properly positioned. The laser measurement system includes a scanner device and a target device. The scanner device operates to generate a laser beam. The target device includes an optical detector configured to detect when the laser beam is directed at the target device and a position of the laser beam relative to the optical detector. The target device further includes a light control device configured to shape the laser beam directed to the optical detector of the target device.
