(Kreon: Limoges, France) -- At the recent Control tradeshow in Stuttgart, Germany, Kreon Technologies unveiled the Ace Skyline: a Kreon scanning arm with the powerful integrated 3D scanner Skyline that can be used for any application (e.g., 3D inspection, CAD comparison, reverse engineering, rapid protyping).

The Ace Skyline is the only scanner on the market to combine a wide laser line (200 mm), a maximum frequency of 300 lines per second, and a scanning speed of 600,000 points per second. The mix of speed and 200 mm laser line allows for fewer scan passes to digitize any part in record time. In addition, its 15 μm accuracy means that Ace Skyline can deal with the most challenging requirements.

Equipped with a high-definition camera and 2,000 noninterpolated points per laser line, Ace Skyline produces a high-resolution point cloud, catching the smallest details. Scan processes are shorter and more efficient.
