Kreon Solano
Scanning Solutions
Solano is the latest innovation
from Kreon - a low-cost, high accuracy, high speed scanner that
is specifically designed for use on all makes of portable
measuring arm. The Solano system is equally at home in use in
the workshop, design department or metrology room.
Kreon offer 2 different solutions
for users, according to requirements ;
 |
Solano Scanner - an easy-to-use 3D scanner
that can be quickly and easily installed on any make of
portable measuring arm. Installing a scanner on your
existing measuring arm has never been easier, and offers
arm users the chance to upgrade existing equipment with
the World's leading laser scanner.
|
 |
Solano ScanArm - a complete solution
incorporating the Solano 3D laser scanner PLUS Kreon's
all-new portable measuring arm.
|
Solano Scanner :
The new Solano laser scanner from
Kreon Technologies is the result of almost 20 years know-how in
the development and manufacture of class-leading laser line
scanners. Solano is a "plug-and-play" scanner that does not
require any control or interface box, and can be easily
integrated onto most makes of portable measuring arms, including
Faro, Cimcore, Romer, BACES, Nikon (Metris), etc.
The Kreon Solano's characteristics
are suitable for a wide variety of applications including ;
 |
Reverse Engineering - scanning of parts for
recreation or evolution of original design ideas,
aesthetics, heritage, medical reconstruction, etc.
|
 |
Re-Engineering - scanning of parts to
re-create design intent
|
 |
Rapid Inspection - high speed scanning of up
to 40,000 points per second over a 100mm wide scan line
ensures rapid acquisition of high quality data
|
 |
Quality Control - rapid measurement and
inspection of parts to check conformance with drawing or
nominal CAD data |
The
Solano also features a unique, patented "in-line" probe such
that the scanner can be used with an arm for traditional touch
probe activities, without the need for cumbersome offset probes.
This makes calibration of the probe and scanner far more
efficient and reliable, plus it places the scanner directly in
line with the arm axis to make scanning even easier.
The Solano scanner can be combined
with a variety of software solutions, according to application
and need, such as Geomagic for reverse engineering and
Metrologic inspection software for 3D measurement and
inspection.

temperature sensors automatically compensate for thermal
changes, to guarantee accuracy in all environmental conditions.
The 7-axis arm / scanner is
available with a 2.6m or 3.2m measuring volume, with a
repeatability of 60mm
and 75mm
respectively. The all-inclusive packages comprise measuring arm,
scanner plus 3D analysis software according to measuring needs ;
