Why the End-Scan technique is important

This end-scan method is useful for ease-of-use and quickness.

Please keep in mind that our tests show that it is the least precise of the techniques that we recommend.

We also recommend the End-Scan Using the End Wall technique and the most precise End-Scan Using End Targets.


Measure Setup

  • 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.

How To Use This End-Scan Technique

  • 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 target from measure to measure.

  • Press the green button until VTube-LASER is finished scanning all the end stripes.
