The regular scan process uses “Adaptive Bed Rotation”, which means that each new
set of points is reviewed to determine how far the model has rotated since the previous
set of points. If there is a large distance between the two sets of points, the bed will
rotate back and capture data between the two sets of points. This helps ensure that as
much of the model is captured as is physically possible.
Changing the bed rotation degree size overrides Adaptive Bed Rotation. Rotation will
be fixed at whatever degree you have set it for.
Head Step Resolution
You may notice that during scanning, there is a lot of overlap between the points
captured from one pass and the points captured on the next pass. You can use the
Head Step Resolution setting to adjust the distance the head is moved between passes
to minimize this overlap. This will also to decrease scan completion time.
Note that the smaller the object, the larger the distance you can move the head,
provided you’ve placed the object in the center of the bed. Larger objects that take up
more space on the bed will need a smaller head movement to avoid missing areas
between passes.
