Measuring arms for accurate 3D measurement in industrial environments
At NYLI, you will find measuring arms from Kreon Technologies, developed for quality control, inspection, and reverse engineering. The solutions combine tactile measurement and 3D scanning depending on the model.
How measuring arms work in modern production
Measuring arms are a type of measuring equipment and function as portable coordinate measuring machines, enabling the measurement of geometries in three dimensions directly at the location of the component. They can easily be moved between different workstations and used wherever measurement is required within production.
The choice of probe heads affects both measurement accuracy and repeatability. If you are unsure which solution best suits your production, we at NYLI will help you find the right alternative.
Choose the right measuring arm based on your deeds
Kreon offers both 6-axis and 7-axis measuring arms with different configurations depending on your requirements. When maximum accuracy is critical, a 6-axis measuring arm can be a suitable choice, particularly for tactile measurement.
A 7-axis measuring arm is the most common choice today, as it provides greater ergonomic flexibility during measurement and makes it easier to work around more complex geometries. The selection should always be based on the size of the component, tolerance requirements, and how the measurement is intended to be used in production.
The performance of coordinate measuring equipment is verified according to international standards such as ISO 10360, providing a common reference for assessing measurement uncertainty.
Kreon measuring arms for flexible quality control
With the Kreon Ace Arm, you get a portable solution for inspection and quality control of industrially manufactured components. It is designed to be easy to use and simple to move between different workstations, allowing measurements to be performed directly where the component is located in production.
The Kreon Onyx Arm is developed for operations with high demands on precision and flexibility. It combines tactile measurement with laser scanning and is suitable for both simple components and more advanced surfaces where multiple measurement methods need to be used within the same system.
Kreon Skyline is a scanner used together with the Ace and Onyx arms. It is optimized for ergonomics and precision and can handle both dark and reflective surfaces. Measurement uncertainty should always be verified against the current product specification.
