Quality Page Description
Offsets
Quality is used with a product measurement control. A laser or ultrasonic gauge is
mounted upstream of the cutter and used to monitor the product. This may check
size, wall thickness and defects. While product is Good it sets an output to a state
that means good. The output will change to Bad for out of tolerance product.
To access the Quality Page:
1
Press the Set Up 2 tab.
2
Press the Quality sub-tab.
Some gauges delay their good/bad output by using programmed offsets. The
cutter also has this ability. Two values can be entered. These are the distance
from gauge to cutter plus and minus an overlap. Distance to Good is the distance
between the gauge and cutter plus an extra distance to ensure the out of tolerance
section has been cleared of the product line. Distance to Bad should be set less
than the distance between gauge and cutter to ensure product is treated as bad
sooner.
