Quality is everything at waterjet cutting machine manufacturer Stein-Moser. Therefore a highly efficient Leica Absolute Tracker is used during the assembly and checking of the machines. Handling pressure is part of everyday working life in Bischofshofen, Austria. Stein-Moser GmbH, which started life as a stonemasonry business, is now a leading manufacturer of waterjet cutting machines. These machines cut a variety of materials such as metal, glass, ceramics, stone or composites, delivering up to 6 litres of water per minute at a pressure of up to 4000 bar through the cutting head – the pressure is about 450 times higher than a professional espresso machine. more

(Reporter 49, Dec 2003) Since February 2001, mankind has been opening a new eye into the universe: with the Very Large Telescope (VTL). The
VTL provides researchers with extremely sharp images – achievable due to the very high positioning accuracy of all elements of this new observatory. To reach these targets, technology from Leica Geosystems was used. more

All of NASA's Deep Space Network (DSN) 70-m reflectors were measured using
a Leica TDM-5000 theodolite. The main-reflector surface was measured at five elevation angles so that a gravity deformation model could be derived that described the main-reflector distortions over the entire range of elevation angles. The article describes the measurement equipment and accuracy and the results derived from the data. more
