3D measurement

The need to measure, control and quantify deviations has become critical in all stages of the product development cycle.

The ever increasing complexity in shapes, the diversity of materials, the shortened deadlines for manufacturing and minimum stocks are elements that drive the demand for optimization of means of quality control.

Having understood that it was the measuring tools that needed to adapt to the operator’s workflow and not the other way around, Kreon worked in collaboration with leading metrology software editing companies to develop solutions that combined non-contact (laser scanners) and contact (touch-probes) measurement technologies.

This answers virtually all the needs for quality control of parts and assemblies. The Kreon laser scanners make it possible to visualize deviations between a part and its CAD reference at a glance with color-maps but also to perform real-time inspection of geometrical entities.
