PATIENT POSITIONING MECHANISM
Technical Manual
Measure the distance between the line on the alignment ruler and the x-line on the ball phan-
tom (Fig. 97). The distance must be less than 1mm.
Figure 97 180° position
If the distance between the line on the alignment ruler and the x-line on the ball phantom is
more than 1mm, the sensor head position must be adjusted. Adjust the sensor head towards
the ball phantom’s x-line until the distance is less than 1mm according to the instructions
given in section 4.3 “Adjusting the position of the sensor head” on page E-48. Correct only
half of the deviation, so that the deviation will be the same in both the 180° and 0° positions.
4.3 Adjusting the position of the sensor head
NOTE This section applies to panoramic units without cephalostat and pan/ceph units with
one sensor head (i.e. sensor head with quick connector mechanism). In case your X-
ray unit is a pan/ceph model with two fixed sensor heads, the position of the entire
panoramic sensor head can not be adjusted. Refer to section 4.4 “X-ray units with two
fixed sensor heads: panoramic sensor head adjustments” on page E-49.
The position of the sensor head can be slightly adjusted. Loosen the two screws that hold the
sensor head in rotating unit and move the sensor head to required position.
