A Better Definition of 3D Measurement

The Kreon Onyx is the highest-performance measuring-arm platform in the Kreon range, engineered for demanding dimensional inspection and metrology applications.

Its rigid aluminum and carbon construction, high-resolution encoders and advanced temperature compensation provide the stability required for high-accuracy portable measurement.

Configure Onyx as a 6-axis probing system for maximum accuracy or as a 7-axis system for greater flexibility and seamless integration with Kreon Skyline 3D scanners.

6-Axis or 7-Axis?

Choose 6-Axis for Maximum Probing Accuracy

The 6-axis Onyx is optimized for tactile probing and applications with the most demanding accuracy requirements.

Choose 7-Axis for Scanning & Flexibility

The additional axis provides greater freedom when positioning a Skyline scanner and makes complex geometry easier to access.

Add High-Speed 3D Scanning

Pair the Onyx 7-axis measuring arm with a Kreon Skyline 3D scanner to combine tactile probing and dense non-contact scanning in one system.

  • High-resolution 3D scanning
  • Rapid point-cloud acquisition

The Ultimate Measuring Accuracy

High-resolution encoders allow the Onyx to measure technical components to demanding tolerances by probing or scanning.

  • Dimensional inspection
  • CAD comparison
  • Color deviation mapping
  • Hole diameter and position
  • GD&T inspection
  • First article inspection

A True Portable CMM

Bring measurement directly to the component instead of transporting large or heavy parts to a traditional CMM.

  • Lightweight arm construction
  • Wireless Wi-Fi and Bluetooth
  • Hot-swappable battery
  • Automatic temperature compensation
  • Brunson universal mounting interface
  • No pre-heating required
  • Fast setup near the application

Designed for Comfortable Measurement

Flexible counterbalancing and lightweight handling reduce operator effort during extended inspection sessions.

Infinite rotation axes provide substantial freedom of movement around difficult geometry without constantly repositioning the arm.

EasyClip Removable Handle

The Onyx 7-axis handle can be removed when access becomes difficult.

This provides additional clearance for measuring inside cavities, tooling and confined assemblies.

Exceptional Freedom of Movement

Infinite rotation axes give the operator the freedom to move around complex parts without reaching mechanical stops.

This is especially useful when measuring tooling, vehicle components, fixtures, molds and intricate assemblies.

Onboard QuickView Display

The integrated QuickView screen provides immediate access to important arm information without requiring the operator to return to the workstation.

8 HR

Probing Runtime

Up to approximately 8 hours.

4 HR

Scanning Runtime

Up to approximately 4 hours.

Wi-Fi

Wireless Measurement

Operate away from the workstation.

HOT SWAP

Battery System

Exchange batteries with minimal interruption.

10–45°C
Normal Operating Temperature Range

Onyx monitors ambient temperature and compensates for dimensional changes caused by temperature variation.

Measure Where the Part Is

Temperature compensation helps maintain measurement quality outside a tightly controlled metrology room.

This makes Onyx particularly useful on the production floor, near machine tools and around large components that cannot easily be moved to a stationary CMM.

ISO 10360-12

Validated Metrology Performance

Kreon measuring arms are validated according to ISO 10360-12, the international standard used to evaluate articulated-arm coordinate measuring machines.

One Onyx for Every Size of Part

Kreon offers Onyx measuring volumes ranging from 2 meters through 5 meters.
