Placement on the conveyor system
The exact placement of the components on the mounting frame depends on project-
specific requirements and on the number of camera systems used.
Single-side reading
The following diagram visualizes single-side reading from above. The camera system and
deflector mirror are mounted above the conveyor system.

system
Multi-side reading
In the following diagram, three camera systems have been combined with each other for
multi-side reading.

For dynamic focusing, the camera needs continuous information about the distance to the
object surface. In the example of a volume measurement system mounted above the
conveyor, the distance values are determined and forwarded to the camera systems via
the controller unit.
