CHAPTER 4 MEASUREMENT
4-3 Measuring Thickness
This section explains measurement of changes in thickness of the measurement object for
the reference thickness. The example shows basic operation for measuring the thickness of
a plate using 2 sensor heads.
„ Procedure
1. Check all connections.
Confirm that the controller, sensor heads, and
compact console are connected.
2. Turn on power.
When the controller and sensor heads have
completed automatic start-up, the laser emission
indicators (green) lights and laser radiates light. If
the measurement object is within the measure-
ment range, a measurement value is displayed on
the compact console.
3. Adjust the position of the sensor heads.
• Set the orientation of the measurement object
and the sensor heads referencing "Mounting the
Sensor Head" on page 2-4.
• While observing the measurement range indicator
(yellow) of the sensor head or measurement
display on the compact console, adjust the
mounting position of the sensor head so the
approximate measurement center is in the center
of the measurement object's variation range.
• The measurement range indicator (yellow) blinks
when the distance to the object is in the measure-
ment range, and it lights roughly at the measure-
ment center distance.
• Change between sensor head 1 (H1) and sensor
head 2 (H2) display on measurement display
screen of the compact console.
• When "add/subtract" is selected for the head
operation, change to "independent" referencing
page 5-10.
