These surface characteristics complicate laser line probe measurements, often requiring manual adjustments and slowing data collection.
Challenges with Difficult Surface Finishes Laser line scanning relies on the reflection of a laser line projected on a parts surface to generate point cloud data.
High reflectivity produces complex reflective patterns where the laser line can be mistaken for reflections, leading to noisy or incomplete scans.
Effect on Workflow Efficiency Testing on representative challenging parts demonstrated up to a 60% reduction in time to usable scan data.
Currently, DTEX development focuses on the laser line probe product line, given its specific optical configuration.
