Some heads have a three position mask in front of the laser. Turning the laser cap changes the mask:
Position I
places a mask line in the centre of the laser line. This artificially divides the laser line into a left and
right side. It can be used to measure features where it is difficult to identify the left and right sides
of a feature.
Position II is the default position which allows the full width of the laser line to be used.
Position III masks the laser on the right and left ends of the line presenting a shorter laser line on the feature.
The Docking Station connects the GapGun to the PC
though an Ethernet connection.
It also powers the GapGun, recharges the internal
battery and is a safe place to store the GapGun.
Standoffs are used in applications where the
parts being measured can’t possibly move. The
standoffs help stabilise the GapGun and position
it correctly.
The black V standoffs are for measuring gaps and
the grey H standoffs are for sealant beads.
