Level up your scanning capabilities with Lumafield’s scanner modules. Explore their features and learn how to use them below.

​
Expanded Scan Volume

Expanded Scan Volume broadens the field of view on your scanner, enabling you to inspect parts with up to 85% larger volumes and up to 50% bigger diameter than before or to increase magnification for improved magnification. Similar to panorama mode on your phone’s camera, this acquisition mode allows you to capture more data within the frame, providing a comprehensive view of your products.images/expandedvolume.png

How to use expanded scan volume

When this module is enabled, the scanner software will display a slider that allows for the selection of offset scanning. As the chosen offset value increases, the motion axis will move further toward the door. Offset value can range from 0% (standard scanning) to 100% (our maximum recommendation). A higher offset enables a larger scan volume or higher magnification for a given part or region of interest.images/offsetslider.png
Note that larger offsets will introduce the potential for more scan artifacts.
Before starting the scan, rotate the turntable with X-rays on to make sure the part or region of interest does not leave the right side of the screen.images/helmetinseah.gifOnce your part is positioned correctly, start a scan as usual and follow the on-screen prompts. You will be insructed to remove the part while the scanner collects flat field correction (FFC) images and then replace it before the scan starts. These steps must be performed for the scan to successfully complete.
