Part 2 Basics of the LPX-250

Rotary Scanning
The basic principle is to mount the object to be scanned at the center of the table. All areas to be scanned must be at the table center. The area
away from the center of the base (the shaded portion in the figure) cannot be scanned correctly.
Effective Sensor Area
The area where the laser sensor detects reflected laser light is to the right of the center of the table. This is the effective sensor area. When
laser light is reflected from the area to the left of the table center, the LPX-250 decides that there is no object to scan. The surface of an object
mounted at the table center always passes within the effective sensor area, and the laser light is always reflected from the area to the right.
This effective sensor area must also be taken into account when the object has large depressions or shelf-shaped areas.
