(FARO Technologies: Lake Mary, Florida) -- FARO Technologies Inc., a maker of portable computer-aided measurement arms and laser trackers, is increasing its role as technology sponsor for the GTS-champion Corvette Racing Team, which is preparing for the most grueling race of the season, the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Corvette Racing—run by Pratt & Miller on behalf of General Motors—has used the FaroArm in the design, quality control, and race-specification compliance of their vehicles, and will now also use FARO’s Gage and Laser ScanArm. The Gage validates parts in their machine shop, and the ScanArm reverse-engineers components. This allows the company’s engineers and technicians to accurately and efficiently produce features from individual components and subassemblies, to complete turnkey road and race cars.
