How to perform quick scissor motion end-scans.

• Back to VTube-LASER
• See End-Scan Technique Research

This end-scan method is useful for ease-of-use and quickness, however it is the least precise of the techniques.

We also recommend these techniques:

• End-Scan Using the End Wall
• End-Scan Using End Targets (most precise).

• Set System Options, Measure 2 Tab, "Maximum Number of LLP Points in String" to 3
• Set Measure Setup - LASER Tab: The LASER defaults to ON for CYLINDERS and END-SCANS.
• Set Measure Setup - LASER Tab: Cylinder stripes = 3 to 5
• Set Measure Setup - LASER Tab: End-scan stripes = 5
• Set Measure Setup - LASER Tab: Split bend stripes = 5
• Set Measure Setup = Scan Rates Tab: Set all rates to TIMER for all scan types.
• Set Measure Setup = Scan Rates Tab: Set the Scan Rates TIMER is set to 0 for all TIMERS.

• Align the scanner with a slight scissor angle across the end as is shown in the image on the right
  
  
• Attempt to hold the laser motionless when collecting the stripes across the end to increase repeatability.
  
  
• Consistently place the line across the same area of the tube end from measure to measure.
  
  
• Press the green button until VTube-LASER is finished scanning all the end stripes.
