Following the amazing success of the innovative Handyscan3D handheld laser scanner, we are pleased to announce the strengthening of our 3D scanning capabilities with a partnership with Kreon Technologies of France, one of the leading pioneers in 3D laser scanning systems.
"For some time we have
recognised the need for a complimentary product to the revolutionary
Handyscan3D" remarks Iain Caville, Managing Director of Measurement
Solutions. "Kreon Technologies offer innovative 3D scanning solutions
for CMM and portable arm applications that do not conflict with our
existing Handyscan3D activities. We now have the UK's most complete
range of solutions for rapid, portable scanning technologies".
Kreon scanners are also fully integrated within the latest Metrolog XG CMM software, removing the need for additional software and time consuming post-processing of data. For the first time ever, it is possible to use a combined touch trigger probe and laser scanner within a single measuring and analysis software package, that has been specifically designed for 3D inspection purposes.
Kreon laser scanners can be supplied with a range of measuring arms or new CMM's. However, unlike other laser scanners which demand the purchase of a new piece of measuring equipment, Kreon laser scanners can be easily retrofitted to any make or model of CMM or portable measuring arm, removing the need for unnecessary additional investment. This capability means laser scanning technology is within reach of anyone that already has a CMM or portable arm.
"The inclusion of Kreon
laser scanners within our product portfolio offers us an exciting
opportunity within the market" concludes Iain Caville. "3D digitising
and point cloud analysis is, without doubt, the way forward for 3D
inspection. The possibility to retrofit Kreon scanners on to existing
CMM systems offers users the first opportunity to use this new
technology without the need to invest in completely new measuring
equipment. The prospect of being able to offer Kreon scanners for CMM
and portable arm inspection applications, the handheld Handyscan3D for
other types of inspection and reverse engineering applications, plus our
vast experience of 3D inspection applications, firmly establishes our
company as the UK's leading supplier of 3D scanning solutions".
