FARO公司創(chuàng)建于1982年,，時(shí)年公司的二位創(chuàng)始人Simon Raab和Greg Fraser在加拿大蒙特利爾的麥吉爾大學(xué)完成了他們的博士學(xué)位,，二人相遇后決定共同創(chuàng)辦FARO公司。經(jīng)過(guò)兩年的努力,，公司陸續(xù)于1984,、1986和1988年推出了三款運(yùn)用彎臂式測(cè)量技術(shù)的醫(yī)用/外科產(chǎn)品。公司于1990年從蒙特利爾遷址至美國(guó)佛州的Lake Mary,，此后公司應(yīng)邀為制造廠開(kāi)發(fā)便攜式質(zhì)控工具,，將原有技術(shù)進(jìn)一步提高。?

1994年FARO完成了由醫(yī)療市場(chǎng)到更大的世界工業(yè)加工市場(chǎng)的定位轉(zhuǎn)型,。在優(yōu)秀的銷售業(yè)績(jī)和利潤(rùn)以及巨大的市場(chǎng)潛力的基礎(chǔ)之上,，F(xiàn)ARO于1997年登陸納斯達(dá)克市場(chǎng)，股票名稱為FARO,。公司于1998,、2002和2005年收購(gòu)了三家企業(yè)，拓展了銷售網(wǎng)絡(luò)和產(chǎn)品范圍,，并正式進(jìn)軍激光探測(cè)技術(shù)領(lǐng)域,。

FARO was founded in 1982 by Simon Raab and Greg Fraser who met while completing their PhD work at Mc Gill University in Montreal, Canada. After two years of development FARO launched three medical/surgical products based on its articulated arm measurement technology in 1984, 1986 and 1988 respectively. The company moved from Montreal to Lake Mary, Florida in 1990 and shortly after that the Company was asked to develop a larger, more robust version of its technology for use as a portable quality control tool for manufacturers. ? ?

?

By 1994 FARO had completely transitioned from the medical markets to the much larger worldwide industrial manufacturing market. On the basis of strong sales and profit growth and the large underserved market, FARO went public in 1997 and its shares began trading on the NASDAQ exchange under the symbol FARO. Faro acquired three companies in 1998, 2002 and 2005 to broaden its worldwide distribution and to expand its product lines into laser based inspection technology. ?

?

With more than 16,000 installations and 7400 customers globally, FARO Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: FARO) and its international subsidiaries design, develop, and market software and portable, computerised measurement devices. The company‘s products allow manufacturers to perform 3D inspections of parts and assemblies on the shop floor. This helps eliminate manufacturing errors, and thereby increases productivity and profitability for a variety of industries in FARO‘s worldwide customer base.?
