Laser Tracker accuracy crucial to Bombardier Aerospace
Aerospace Fabrication and Inspection Leica's turf
 
Bombardier Aerospace has some 28,000 employees, and maintains full aircraft and aircraft component design and production facilities in Canada, the United States, and Northern Ireland. The company’s overall emphasis lies in three areas: continuous innovation, the highest level of productivity, and the creation of products that meet their customers’ needs. Bombardier is making sure these initiatives are met by employing world-class manufacturing technologies. A good example is the use of LTD500 laser trackers from the Metrology Division of Leica Geosystems (Norcross, GA).
The name Bombardier is eminently associated with innovative aircraft for the business, regional and amphibious markets. In fact, the company is the third largest civil airframe manufacturer in the world. Bombardier Aerospace is a group of Bombardier, Inc., a diversified manufacturing and services company that also manufactures rail transportation equipment and provides financial and asset management services. Headquartered at Montréal International Airport (Dorval), Bombardier Aerospace leverages a rich heritage of more than 250 years of aviation history through the accomplishments of Shorts*, Learjet*, de Havilland* and Canadair*. The company has pushed the envelope to produce 14 new successful aircraft programs in the past 14 years.
