The following settings can be tuned to improve the accuracy and reliability of part detection.
Setting Description
Height Threshold
Determines the profile height threshold for part detection. The setting for Threshold
Direction determines if parts should be detected above or below the threshold. Above is
typically used to prevent the belt surface from being detected as a part when scanning
objects on a conveyor.
In an Opposite layout, the threshold is applied to the difference between the top and the
bottom profile.A target thinner than the threshold value is ignored, including places
where only one of either top or bottom is detected.
To separate parts by gated external input, set the Height Threshold to the active area Z
offset (i.e., minimum Z position of the current active area), set Source to Time or
Encoder and check the Gate Using External Input checkbox in the Trigger panel
(page 75).
Threshold Direction Determines if parts should be detected above or below the height threshold.
Gap Width Determines the minimum separation between objects on the X axis. If parts are closer
