| 1978 | Group of designers, electronics engineers, mathematicians and specialists in optical engineering in Saratov under the guidance of Aleksandr Grigorievich Laptev started working on the design of a conceptually new measurement technology – coordinate measuring machines (CMMs) which have work members with six degrees of freedom. |
| 1988 ă. | the CMM prototype was put into operation |
| 1990 | when Russia removed the “iron curtain” we welcomed American, German and other foreign guests interested in measurement technology know-how. |
| 1992 | Lapic LLC was founded to implement the idea in manufacturing with the measurement technology to be the main aspect of production. The first coordinate measuring machine was supplied to the customer. |
| 1994 | Lapic LLC presented its products at the exhibition in Washington, D.C.
The new generation technology was presented in domestic and foreign editions. Later analog machines appeared in USA and Federal Republic of Germany.
|
| 1995 | The measurement technology was equipped with the self-calibration system. |
| 1996 | Milan. Exhibition of metal processing equipment BIMU-96. Western specialists noted CMM-750 systems to be a breakthrough into the XXI century. The accuracy of processing or measurement of parts was 1 micron. |
| 1997 | Demonstration of our CMM at exhibitions in Leipzig, Hannover, Beijing, Shanghai, Moscow. |
| 1998 | The first export supply of CMM to Xian, China. |
| 2000 | launched the design of CMM series including those for measuring large-size parts. |
| 2002 | Self-teaching system was added into the CMM software. |
| 2004 | Čçěĺđčňĺëüíŕ˙ ňĺőíčęŕ îńíŕůŕĺňń˙ ůóďîâűěč ăîëîâęŕěč Renishaw. |
| 2005 | The measurement technology was equipped with Renishaw stylus probes. |
| 2006 | developed the program to measure complex parts in accordance with their mathematical models. |
| 2006 | The best domestic measuring device of 2006. “Test and measuring instruments and systems” magazine recognized the designing of CMM-1200/2800 as the winner in the nomination “The best domestic measuring device of 2006”. |
| 2007 | The measurement technology was equipped with Renishaw scanning probe. |
| 2008 | The best domestic measuring device of 2008. “Test and measuring instruments and systems” magazine recognized the designing of CMM-1000 as the winner in the nomination “The best domestic measuring device of 2008”. |
| 2009 | started working on the design of the movement and positioning control system of ion-beam machining device intended for mirrors of large diameters used in space observations system. |
