Measuring arm and laser tracker combination

The fastest solution for large parts scanning with a range of 80 m

Track Ace is the association of the Kreon Ace measuring arm and a laser tracker. It allows operating 3D measurement in large volume in accordance with a metrological accuracy, and performs high speed scanning thanks to a fast scanner with a 200 mm wide laser line. It joins the assets of the long range and precision of the tracker and the flexibility, portability and accuracy of Ace arm.

Track Ace

How does it work?

The tracker follows the positions of the arm around the measured part and merges them into a common reference.
The tracking of the arm is made one time for each position, so there is no real-time tracking and no risk to break the connection between the tracker and the arm.

Extremely large parts
measurement, up to 80 m

The Track ACE solution works with a laser tracker that offers the longest measurement distance on the market. Due to its max range of 80 m, it allows to operate 3D scanning for the most enormous parts including planes and wind turbines. Obviously, it can also process car measurement.

3D inspection of very large parts such as wind turbine blades

Stop wasting time thanks to fast scanning

Large laser line of 200 mm (Skyline Wide scanner) for less scan passes and less scanning time.
High frequency for fastest hand movements.
Customizable points density to avoid irrelevant point clouds: high density for details and low density for stretched surfaces.
No need to place numerous stickers to locate the 3D scanner.

Optimal user comfort

Switch easily from scanning, for surface inspection, to probing, for geometrical entities inspection.
Quick repositioning of the measuring arm by the laser tracker in less than a minute.
Easy arm movement thanks to tripod with wheels.
No cable needed for the connection between the arm and the tracker.
No pre-heating, start working once you are ready.
No special software needed, the solution is integrated into the main software of the market.

Track Ace space alignment before performing 3D measurement

Simple and fast
positioning process

1.Fit the Track Ace interface on the Ace arm. The Track Ace interface uses Renishaw attachment to be perfectly repeatable.
2.Place the SMR sphere inside the interface.
3.Facing the tracker, take a grid of 15 points in space with the arm.

Total positioning time is less than a minute.

No shadow zones

After the laser tracker has determined the position of the measuring arm, the arm can work independently of the tracker. When the operator uses the arm to measure, he can move freely, like all the workers in the area, with no risk to break the connection between arm and laser tracker. In this way, the continuity of the rythm of work in the workshop is maintained.

Independent systems for a faster return on investment

Use of the tracker alone (with SMR probing)

Long range 3D measurement
Machine alignment

Use of the ACE measuring arm alone

Measuring inside small spaces or vehicles
Measuring smaller parts, from 1cm to 4m (depending on the arm size)
Scanning high requirements parts
