The history of Lase
LASE was founded in Hünxe on 15 May 1990 by the former Managing Director Dipl.-Ing. Achim Klingberg. He was a pioneer in the development and utilisation of laser measurement technology in the heavy industry sector. One of the first transactions was the delivery of laser distance meters to Hüttenwerke Krupp Mannesmann in Duisburg to measure the ladle fill level in the steelworks. The aim was to use lasers that could measure on hot surfaces.
These lasers also had to be protected against the extreme heat. The product range was expanded over the following years. From 2001, 2D laser scanners were added, and in 2005 the first 3D laser scanner was developed at LASE. In order to process the complex data from the 2D and 3D applications using software developed in-house, Dipl.-Ing. Lars Ambrosy founded LASE Systemtechnik GmbH in Bremen in 2001.

In 2004, the business was then merged under the umbrella of LASE Industrielle Lasertechnik GmbH in Wesel and the second location in Bremen was retained as a further branch. The product spectrum thus ranges from point measurements to complex laser measuring systems - usually under the most difficult operating conditions. In addition to the production and sale of components and system solutions, the company also focuses on the development of customer-specific software solutions. Furthermore, our team of experienced engineers and technicians is always on hand to provide competent support during project implementation, from initial consultation to professional commissioning.
LASE's measuring systems are mainly used worldwide for port and crane applications, profile and volume determination in stockpiles or bunkers and for measuring steel products. Since 2007, internationalization has also been stepped up, with the establishment of a sales office in Shanghai (China) in 2008. In addition, many new distributors were acquired worldwide. In addition to internationalization, new business areas have been increasingly developed since 2002. While the focus was initially solely on the steel industry, the port and mining divisions now account for a significant proportion of sales.
