Compare UniScan and MultiScan Measurements |
|
UniScan Measurements
|
UniScan measurements take one group of evenly spaced points over the entire straight. The method use to measure with UniScan is like spray painting. |
MultiScan Measurements
|
MulitScan only measures near the tangents of a straight. (The tangents are the locations on the straights where the straights and bends meet.) |
MTA Measurements
| MTA (Measured Tube Averaging), combined with UniScan measuring, is the the best type of measuring available in VTube-LASER. MTA allows you to measure multiple sides of the same tube, then average the results into a single final tube shape. |
