LTC's BEMIS™ Bore Inspection System supported by our LaserViewer™ data acquisition and analysis software provides a superior alternative to conventional gauges. Our laser profiling sensors have significantly larger measurement ranges than air gauges and star gauges, can rapidly scan the entire gun tube surface in a non-contact manner, generating a high-resolution, three-dimensional image that is quantitative and accurate.
These laser sensors project a tiny laser beam onto the part surface and can acquire thousands of samples per scan. Data can be evaluated using our LaserViewer™ analysis software or our LaserViewer 3D™ visualization and analysis software. Test results can also be automatically post-processed and displayed in a tabular summary report.
Bore mapping results are provided in several operator-friendly formats, including:
- Contour view display of the full bore length
- Cross sectional display of the bore at any axial location
- 3D Image
- Tabular summary
Key advantages of laser mapping include:
- Non-contact measurement
- Automated data acquisition
- Interchangeable sensors
- Full-featured analysis and reporting functions
- Quick changeover to new barrels
- Complete surface characterization
- Full-length bore mapping
- Photograph-quality bore and chamber image using LaserVideo™ imaging
