Part Detection
After Gocator has generated a surface by combining single exposures into larger pieces of data, the
firmware can isolate discrete parts on a generated surface into separate scans representing parts.
Gocator can then perform measurements on these isolated parts.
Part detection is useful when measurements on individual parts are needed and for robotic pick and
place applications.
For more information on part detection, see Part Detection on page 117.
Sectioning
In Surface mode, Gocator can also extract a profile from a surface or part using a line you define on that
surface or part. The resulting profile is called a “section.” A section can have any orientation on the
surface, but its profile is parallel to the Z axis.
