Installing near walls
Measurement errors can be reduced by
installing the Sensor Head with the line
formed by the emission and reception axes
parallel to the wall, and painting the wall with
non-reflective black paint.
Wrong
Rotating objects
When measuring rotating workpieces, you can
minimize the influence caused by vibration of
the rotating object and positional shifts by
installing the Sensor Head with the line
formed by the emission and reception axes
parallel to the axis of rotation.
Wrong
Effect caused by peripheral lights
Do not install the Sensor Head in a place
where strong light hits the laser
emitter/receiver section of the Sensor Head.
Also, if a workpiece has a shiny surface, the
light from the lighting will be reflected and a
malfunction may occur. In such a case,
prevent reflection by, for example, covering
the light to stop reflection.
