Kreon scanners are used in the automotive industry for applications in :
Automotive styling Prototype Digitizing of complete vehicles Scanning of isolated elements Inspection of manufactured parts Interior trim Gap and flush measurement Assembly analysis Crash testing analysis Aftermarket components design and inspection
Peugeot has chosen Kreon scanners to equip 6 production sites in France. For reverse engineering applications Kreon Zephyr scanners bring the guarantee of easy recreation of physical parts and evolution of prototypes while their use during the demanding inspection processes makes it possible to monitor deviations between the engine parts produced and their theoretical CAD definition.
Harley Davidson has selected Kreon scanners to monitor the quality of metal frames, tubes, castings, formed parts, tooling, dies, etc. related to the manufacturing of motorcycles. Parts are scanned and compared to existing CAD models, and some data is also collected to create updated CAD for functioning parts that have incorrect CAD on file.
With the KREON Fast Reverse Engineering Solution, the 3D CAD models of the Bombardier Elite Snowmobile were generated in only 3 days after the scanning of the vehicle. Creating the full model in NURBS surfaces was done in 5 days including body, interior, doors, dash…
At the PMG test center, scanning of a complete vehicle before and after crash tests is done in only 2 hours with the Kreon Zephyr scanner.
At Sherwood Dash,: scanning with a Kreon scanner is done directly on the vehicle, 3D CAD models are generated in 2 days after machining of molds for thermoforming directly from CAD data.
