Your spherically mounted retroreflector (SMR)—or laser tracker reflector—is one of the most important (and often most overlooked) components in your metrology toolkit. A well-maintained SMR ensures maximum measurement accuracy, while a neglected one can introduce significant errors without immediately visible signs.
Laser tracker reflectors, also known as spherically mounted retroreflectors (SMRs), are indispensable tools in high-precision measurement tasks. Whether used in aerospace assembly, metrology in manufacturing, or bridge monitoring, their accuracy is crucial for delivering reliable 3D coordinates.
Laser tracker reflectors—commonly known as Spherically Mounted Retroreflectors (SMRs)—are critical for achieving high-accuracy, non-contact 3D measurements with a laser tracker system. But not all SMRs are created equal. From sphere size and reflective coating to mounting compatibility, selecting the right SMR can mean the difference between flawless alignment and costly measurement errors.
