Scan Edge Position
This processing item detects the position of the measurement object by using the change in color within the
measurement region. By dividing the measurement region, the following effects can be expected compared to
ordinary edge position measurement.
• Detailed information, such as the closest point or furthest point from the measurement start
point, can be calculated.
• The inclination or degree of unevenness of the measured object can be calculated.
Used in the Following Case
• To calculate multiple edge positions of the measurement object from statistical data
• Processing is different for color images and monochrome images. If the camera type, color camera, or monochrome
camera, was changed from a previous setup, a reset of some settings may be needed.
• Edge image measurement processing mechanism
