Winner of the MACH 2006 MetalWorking Production Awards the Planar system is the fastest, most cost effective and robust flat-sheet/sheet-metal, measurement system in the world. Our prices start at less than a third the price of lowest priced competing systems and our measurement times are more than 100 times faster.

Unlike competing systems which have expensive moving parts the Planar system has no moving parts to recalibrate or wear out and is consequently a fraction of the cost of competing systems.

Furthermore, unlike competing systems the Planar system has Line Laser 3D measurement which can be used to measure the cross-section of forms, folds, or simple machined or molded parts.

Infact in less than 5 minutes and with little training the Planar machine can be used to confirm the entire 3D shape of a folded part. Please see our 3 step process for further details. And because the system measures the component in less than 1/8th of a second it is almost impervious to vibrations and can be installed right next your punching machine.

Measurements can then be used to inspect, reverse engineer, measure a component's thickness/flatness, convert printed CAD drawings into DXF drawings, create 3D models of the component, measure bent tubes, O-rings or gaskets, and perform countless other tasks.

Accuracies range from +/-0.012 to 0.1mm, and table sizes range from 1.5m2 to 0.17m2. Please see our Benefits and Technology sections for further details.
