Measurements performed simply and precisely.

Industrial environment

Important steps towards sustainable production

Thanks to the EnviroMan project, several practical applications have been developed in fulfilling the vision of sustainable production

Glödande stål

Laser detects cracks in steel

Cracks in steel are normally detected late during casting and the defective steel must then be either scrapped or repaired.
