How to perform the end-wall end scan.
|
About the End Wall Technique
We recommend this for increased precision where it is possible to strike the end wall. high-reflectivity and burrs are not an issue on the end wall of the tube. The End Wall method is also very useful for thicker wall tubes.

How To Use This End-Scan Technique
The advantage of this method is that it is less prone to outlier points. The disadvantage is that it is hard to aim at thinner walls.

Another Way to Use This End-Scan Technique
The advantage of this method is that it is less prone to outlier points. The disadvantage is that it is hard to aim at thinner walls. |
