Laser systems

Laser systems (laser range finders, laser designators, laser receivers,  laser trackers, laser pointers, laser countemeasures)  are one of crucial technologies for defense/security sector and   have also found mass applications outside defense sector. Testing laser systems  is needed for both manufacturers, maintenance workshops and final users for a set of different and important reasons. Hi-tech test equipment can help significantly in manufacturing, maintenance, training, purchase optimization, and optimal use of night vision devices.

Inframet offers a series of test stations to support testing and boresight of laser systems: LTE ,LUNI,  LTF, LAS,  LJT120 , LATRA, LIS, LMOB, LBOR,  L64, LIP, LTIR.  

 LTE test station LUNI test station
LTF test station LAS test station
 LJT120 boresight station LATRA boresight station
 LIS test station LMOB test station
LBOR test station  L64 test station
  LIP test station  LTIR test station

 Table 1. Basic descriptions of offered stations for testing laser systems
Code Basic description Test capabilities
LTE Semi-automatic station for expanded  testing  of laser range finders. Mature design offered from about 2010. Pulse energy, pulse width,pulse frequency, beam divergence, receiver sensitivity, distance accuracy, Extinction Ratio,max operational range boresight errors
LUNI Universal  station for expanded  testing  of laser range finders. New  design offered from 2020. Pulse energy, pulse width, pulse frequency, beam divergence, receiver sensitivity, distance accuracy, Extinction Ratio,max operational range boresight errors
LTF Simple reliable station for final quality control Extinction Ratio, distance accuracy, max operational distance, distance discrimination (option), checking boresight
LAS System to enable measurement of operational range or ER extinction ratio of LRFs at field conditions  Operational range,  extinction ratio ER, support for recalibration of laboratory stations
LJT120

Excellent tool  for fast easy boresight of LRFs for  manufacturers, integrators or repair workshops

 boresight transmitter/ receiver/ aiming channel
LATRA

Moderate cost station that offers the same boresight capabilities as LJT120 as slightly  lower test speed.

 boresight transmitter/ receiver/ aiming channel
LIS LIS station can be considered as a highly simplified version of LTE station. The station is optimized to test
a specific type of LRF but its buyer can define parameters of LRF to be tested. 
LMOB

Variable distance simulator for testing receivers electronics of laser range finders

 Distance measurement accuracy
LBOR

Portable boresight tester of transmitters of laser range finders to be aligned with optical sights or VIS-NIR video cameras

 Boresight errors
L64 Station for testing laser receivers (including laser seekers) and laser trackers Checking reactions  to a simulated pulsed laser source of regulated properties
LIP Advanced station for testing  laser pointers/illuminators Power, divergence angle,uniformity  of laser pointers/illuminators
LTIR Professional system  for testing and boresight of thermal range infrared lasers. Ultra accurate measurement of divergence angle,  temporal and spatial stability
