5.3 Influence of tolerance
Band width When a new parts type is taught, the features of all scanned
parts are recorded. The values of the registered features dif-
fer individually from each other. For each feature, there is a
value range (band width) in which test parts are graded as
“Good”. You can influence this band width by means of the
tolerance setting. Test parts, the features of which lie within
the band width or in the subsequent tolerance range, are still
accepted as good parts.
With 0 % tolerance, only those parts with features which lie
exactly within the band width of the scanned sample parts
will be accepted as good parts. Set therefore at least 1 %
tolerance. This will ensure that good parts will be classified
correctly even if their positions deviate minimally .
