3D Scanning for Quality Improvement with Kreon
This case study from Kreon highlights how the company Vi-Technik uses an Ace measuring arm with a Skyline Open 3D scanner to provide a customized inspection solution for rigid plastic parts.
“Injection is a complex process, and the Ace measuring arm ensures that the machine configuration is perfect and the parts series is ready to be manufactured under optimum conditions.” Take a look at the full case study and contact a precision measurement specialist from Cross Company to see how a Kreon solution can improve efficiency in your operation. Cross Company is an authorized Kreon distributor in the U.S.
Cross Onsite Inspection Services
We can bring our inspection capabilities to you. There are some common applications for which on-site dimensional inspection may be necessary. These include measurement of large, heavy parts, objects that must be measured in-situ, when there is heightened concern of damage or loss in transit, or when customer direction or witnessing is required.
Our experienced inspection technicians can travel to your facility to take measurements directly on your manufacturing floor or in one of your labs!

Cross Provides Tangible Value for You
Improve Efficiency
If you are using software that your team isn’t properly trained to use it could impact your efficiency. In fact, even if they have basic training, your technicians may not be creating programs that are as efficient as they could be.
Training can help you to improve the efficiency of your quality program. Cross can help to make sure your team have the training they need for a number of equipment types and software including OGP, Starrett, Metrologic, Calypso, and more!
Reduce Risk
When manufacturing plastic parts that must be opened or depressed by a human, force testing can be critical. Proper testing can ensure that your product requires exactly the right amount of force to open or close.
Cross is proud to partner with Mark-10, provider of high quality force test stands, materials testers, and more!
