Laser Profilometry and Laser Alignment Systems

Qi2 is a pioneer in developing laser-based technology applied to non-destructive testing (NDT) and measurement. Applying laser-profilometry (LOTIS®) and laser alignment methods, Qi2 has developed specialized solutions required of branches of the military as well as for commercial applications ranging from aviation to road inspection.

Laser Profilometry Systems

A non-contact NDT technique which utilizes single or multiple low-powered lasers to profile the surface of an object, including flaw characterization. Qi2 developed its core LOTIS® (Laser Optic Tube Inspection System) in 1987 for the Navy to inspect boiler reformer tubes. LOTIS® has repeatedly been applied since then to perform critical (often first time) measurement and inspection for many specialized components of cylindrical bore and irregular geometries.
