A spin-off from the Fraunhofer Institute for Laser and Production Technology (ILT/IPT), nokra has almost 30 years’ experience in designing and integrating state-of-the-art, laser-based geometry measuring systems for 100% inline inspection in fully automated production lines.

The first glass measuring system was installed in 2006 on a Saint-Gobain windscreen production line. Today, more than 30 systems are used worldwide, operated by Saint-Gobain, KAC, AGC and AGP.

When asked about the impact of the Coronavirus pandemic on his company, nokra’s Managing Director, Günter Lauven commented: “Corona doesn’t pose any threat to us. Having an influence on our customers’ business of course, we currently face a decrease in our incoming orders but with international projects having to be postponed due to travel and work restrictions, we can seize the opportunity to push our product development forward.”

As a result, in the second half of 2020 an enhanced version of nokra’s windscreen measuring system will be launched, as well as what the company describes as a groundbreaking system for automotive glazing customers.
