Mounting direction
● When performing measurements of moving objects with excessively
different materials and colors, mount the product in the following direc-
tions to minimize measurement errors.
● When performing measurements of rotating objects, mount the prod-
uct as follows. The effect of up/down deflection and position deviation
can be minimized by mounting the sensor in the correct direction.
● When there is a step in the moving object, mount the product as fol-
lows. The effect of reflection deviation by the edges of the steps can
be minimized by mounting the sensor in the correct direction.
