GapGun - The smartest way to check product build geometry
The
GapGun
handheld laser gauge is a quality assurance
tool that checks product build geometry in
production,
maintenance and repair facilities.

Our
GapGun customers are spread across the globe from the Far
East through Europe to the USA, and include the worlds leading aerospace and automotive
companies
(see logos).
Typical applications include:
-

Proven to meet or exceed QS9000-MSA for a wide variety of
measurement types, the GapGun will boost your measurement
capability and data collection rates.

GapGun measures by laser
triangulation, an optical technique that allows accurate
measurements to be made without touching the surface to be
measured. This provides repeatable measurements
and more on painted, unpainted, curved and square cut surfaces.
Originally
developed for Volvo cars to fill the requirement the need for a
true non-contact handheld laser gauge capable of
accurately and repeatably measuring on curved surfaces, the
Gap Gun remains the only such product on the market.

The GapGun is ideal for use in automotive, aerospace, white goods and
transport industries. Gap Gun
customers now also include automotive tier 1 applications,
and the majority of leading aerospace companies.
The Gap Gun can
be used:
-
Handheld, for
offline or production line applications
-
Robot mounted
or inline, using the same measurement head
The Gap Gun is extremely easy and fast to use, and measurement is fully
automatic. Simply pull the trigger and move into range.
