Measuring Principle
The measuring principle is based on the latest CCD technology with several point-like LEDs as light sources. The shadow of the object to be measured, originating from the various light sources, is projected on a line sensor. The line sensor calculates the position of the shadow, thus resulting in different measuring points. These points generate four fictitious shadow lines, which define a square enclosing the object to be measured.
Thanks to the new and unique ZUMBACH® concept of up to 8 light sources (models MSD 100 & MSD 200), multiple shadows on each axis can be evaluated (1 shadow = 1 axis). This allows a multi-axis measurement of smaller products (pat. pend.).
