Efficient Solutions for Industrial Needs
Kreon 3D scanners
Fast and accurate 3D scanner digitizes parts efficiently, even for challenging shapes. Ergonomic design and high resolution ensure high-quality results.
Kreon is a 3D scanning pioneer, with 25 years of experience and leadership in blue laser technology enabling the measurement of shiny and dark surfaces that were previously impossible to scan. The product range’s most powerful machine is Aquilon, which is developed for the most demanding industrial applications. Its dual camera system and extreme accuracy of 5 µm combined with one million points per second ensure a flawless and fast result on even the most challenging surfaces.
Especially designed for use with ACE pivot arms, Skyline breaks records with its 200 mm blue laser beam and 600,000 points per second speed. This scanner, weighing less than 400 grams, is an ergonomic and efficient tool, with an LED marking point guiding the user to maintain the optimal distance for achieving 15 µm accuracy.
Zephyr II Blue is designed for demanding measurement inspections, both for CNC measuring machines and measuring probes with 10 µm accuracy. Its blue laser is specifically adapted for shiny and dark parts. The Zephyr II Red model is also available, which offers a faster scanning process thanks to a red laser and a 100 mm beam width in situations where the special properties of blue light are not required.
Solano CMM complements the range by offering an optimized solution for coordinate measuring machines. It utilizes red light laser and provides a simple yet effective way to combine tactile and non-tactile measurement in industrial parts quality control.

Skyline
The Skyline 3D scanner is a high-performance digitisation device designed for ACE measuring arms, combining exceptional speed and extreme accuracy in an ergonomic package. Its 200 mm wide laser line and 600,000 points per second acquisition rate enable the creation of dense point clouds with remarkably few sweeps.
Blue laser technology guarantees optimal resolution even on challenging, shiny and reflective surfaces. The device’s integrated temperature compensation ensures continuous measurement accuracy right from start-up without requiring a lengthy warm-up.
Operating comfort is optimised with a light weight of under 400 grams and a compact design enabling access to tight spots. The device’s LED reference point guides the user in maintaining the ideal scanning distance, and tool-free attachment makes measuring head changes quick.
Solano Blue
The Solano Blue is a cost-effective 3D scanner designed to provide stable performance and ease of use at a competitive price. It is widely compatible with various measuring arms such as Ace, Faro and Romer. Thanks to the blue laser, the device reliably handles measurement of shiny and reflective surfaces, making it a versatile tool for digitising basic shapes.
The range also includes the most affordable version in the Solano series, which uses a red laser. Although the red laser’s accuracy is slightly lower than the blue model, it offers a very affordable solution for targets where material reflectivity does not impose special requirements on the measurement technique.
Solano CMM
The Solano CMM is a 3D scanner specifically optimised for coordinate measuring machines, designed for versatile digitisation of industrial parts. Based on red light laser technology, the device offers a cost-effective and straightforward solution combining the benefits of traditional contact measurement and modern optical scanning in the same system.
The device’s strength is its simplicity and integratability, making it a reliable tool for quality assurance and inspection measurements in normal industrial environments. It is excellently suited for users who want to extend their measuring machine’s capability to fast point-cloud production without complex installation processes.
Zephyr II Blue
The Zephyr II Blue is a scanner developed especially for demanding industrial applications, suitable for use with both CNC coordinate measuring machines and the most common measuring arms such as Kreon, Faro and Romer. The device’s blue laser light technology is specifically optimised for accurate digitisation of challenging dark and shiny surfaces. The scanner is compatible with several Renishaw systems, and a mechanical touch probe can be integrated below it for versatile measurements.
The alternative Zephyr II model uses a red laser. Although it is slightly less accurate than the blue model, it offers a faster measurement process thanks to a longer laser line. This makes it a cost-effective and quick choice for targets where the advantage of blue light on shiny surfaces is not necessarily needed.
Aquilon
Aquilon is the highest-performance 3D laser scanner in the Kreon product family, developed to meet the needs of the most demanding industrial applications. Its operation is based on an advanced dual-camera system that ensures exceptional accuracy and enables effortless digitisation of even the most difficult surfaces.
The device’s extreme accuracy and market-leading million-point-per-second speed make it an ideal tool for targets where quality assurance requires absolute flawlessness and efficiency. Aquilon represents the cutting edge of scanning technology, combining ultra-fast data capture and micrometre-level resolution.
