Mounting Direction

 

 Direction to a movable body

<When there are differences in material and color>

• 

 When performing measurements
of moving objects with exces-
sively different materials and
colors, mount the product per the

following directions to minimize

measurement errors.

<Measurement of rotating objects>

• 

 When measuring rotating objects, 
mount the product as follows.
Measurement can be performed

with minimized effect on the ob

-

ject caused by up / down deflec

-

tion, position deviation and etc.

<When there is a step>

• 

 When there is a step in the mov-
ing object, mount the product as
follows. Measurement can be

performed with minimized effect

from the edges of the steps.

 

 Measuring of narrow locations and recesses

• 

 When measuring in narrow loca-
tions or inside holes, mount the
product so that optical path from
the light emitting part to light-
receiving part is not interrupted.
