Fanbeam, positioning you can trust
MDL, now part of Renishaw plc, is a designer and manufacturer of rugged laser measurement systems for use in extreme environments. MDL products range from compact laser modules to 3D laser surveying systems.
The Fanbeam® laser radar is a high accuracy position reference system for use as part of work vessel Dynamic Positioning (DP) systems. With a range up to 2,000 meters this system is primarily used for keeping vessels on station relative to an offshore structure enabling operations to take place safely. The system can also be used for seismic source positioning, collision avoidance and gangway monitoring. With over 1,500 vessels installed worldwide Fanbeam® is a proven and trusted industry brand.
The Dynascan is a fully integrated high speed laser scanner that is lightweight, portable and may be used on any moving platform.
Dynascan is an ideal solution if you have the need to gather above water survey information and combine it with bathymetry equipment for a complete above and below water data set. The system uses QINSy software which can simultaneously record bathymetric data with laser data. The Dynascan is compatible with all known brand multi-beam echo sounders, side scan sonar, swathe sonar systems, positioning systems and Inertial Measurement Units.
Since its acquisition by Renishaw Plc in late 2012 MDL has had access to Renishaw’s extensive technical, production and commercial resources. MDL is developing its already extensive overseas support and the company is committed to developing and extending its product range.
