About GL Messtechnik GmbH
GL Messtechnik GmbH is an owner-managed company based in Bad Kreuznach that specializes in non-contact laser measuring systems for quality assurance and product analysis. It emerged in 2015 from Dr. Noll GmbH, founded in 1993, taking over its expertise, personnel and existing systems; the company thus builds on more than 30 years of experience in highly specialized measuring instruments. At its headquarters in Bad Kreuznach, around 30 employees develop and produce custom and standard laser measuring systems for customers worldwide. A key focus is the tire and rim industry: systems measure tread depths, conduct wear and performance studies, record radial and lateral run-out measurements and evaluate heel & toe sawtooth patterns. Further developments include laser sensors for cavity measurement of tubes and hollow bodies, which supply data to production control and can be integrated into automated production and Industry 4.0 environments. In addition, forming processes and weld seams are measured and logged. With its subsidiaries GL Control, GL Inspect and GL Technology, different industries and target groups are served.
