Aerospace
Meta's work in aerospace started in the late 1980s when we designed and built a complete robot welding cell for Ariane rocket nozzles. Today we are still involved in the aerospace industry and still involved in welding rocket nozzles!
Automotive
The auto industry is a huge user of robots, and so also a large user of weld tracking and inspection systems.
Energy
Meta's DLS scanning spot laser sensor provides a unique technology for the large weld joints often found in the energy sector
Transport
Meta sensors are widely used in the transport sector for making planes and boats and trains.
Robot Welding
Meta started with laser sensors for robot welding and it has been an important application throughout the company's history.

Welding Processes
Submerged Arc Welding
Submerged Arc Welding (SAW) is one of the most widely used welding processes, especially in heavy industry.
GMAW/FCAW
GMAW is the archetypal open arc welding process, widely used in manufacturing industry.
GTAW/PAW
GTAW is considered to be a high quality, precision welding process, commonly used for aerospace applications.
Laser & Hybrid
Laser and laser hybrid welding are high speed welding processes, used in the auto industry, requiring very precise control.
FSW
FSW (Friction Stir Welding) is a relatively new process, invented at TWI in 1991. Meta's SLS is well suited to the application.
Products
SLPi
Meta's Smart Laser Pilot (SLPi) is a well proven system for robot welding, with many unique features.
SLPr
Meta's Smart Laser Probe (SLPr) is an SLS-based tracking system for welding machines, typically controlling a pair of linear slides
VistaWeld
VistaWeld is Meta's flagship customisable system for machine welding, and is the market leader for applications in pipe mills and multipass welding
Camera Systems
Meta has a range of camera systems for different applications.
