7.1 Monitoring and cleaning work
7.1.1 Control measurements
▸
Ensure proper functioning of the multi-dimensional measurement system by means
of regular controls.
▸
To do so, check the measurement accuracy of the multi-dimensional measurement
system using defined test objects.
▸
If any unexpected deviations are found, check the multi-dimensional measurement
system for mechanical damage.
▸
Should the multi-dimensional measurement system show signs of mechanical damage,
contact SICK Service.
▸
Place the reference object in a centered position on a conveyor element.
NOTE! The 2D LiDAR sensor needs to be able to detect the entire reference object
when it passes the laser line.
▸
Make sure that the reference object does not change its spatial position when passing
the laser line.
