Why Choose Exaktera for Transportation Solutions?
  • Uniform, Application-Tuned Structured Light — Rail engineers look for laser lines whose wavelength, power, thickness and line-to-line uniformity are specified to catch micron-scale flaws in tracks, wheels, and overhead wires; aerospace teams need the same glare-free uniformity to scan composite skins and turbine parts without false positives.
  • Digitally Monitored, Thermally Managed Output — Laser modules with on-board thermal control and a remote digital interface keep power stable in high-ambient-light trackside enclosures and inside additive-manufacturing machines, building rocket or air-frame components.
  • Robust, All-Weather Reliability — Our lasers and LEDs are robust and reliable in a wide range of environmental conditions. They stay aligned and maintain output under shock, vibration, dust, and temperature extremes.
  • Remote Diagnostics and Lifecycle Support — Our devices offer health telemetry for predictive maintenance and provide long-term spare parts availability, supporting decade-long operation in applications like rolling-stock monitoring and aerospace production.
