Edge detection on Lotem Quantum


Product

 
  • Lotem™ 800 Quantum
  • Lotem 850 Quantum
  • Lotem 400 Quantum
  • Lotem Quantum Spectrum

Symptoms

 

Edge detection problem
Note: This document describes one specific problem and its solution. The same symptom can also appear for a completely different problem.


Cause

 

The image moves 50 to 300 microns from side-to-side on the plate along the drum.


Solution

 

Run the EdgeMCE script from Splot version 3.64 to find a graph of the edge-of-the-plate profile. The script reveals how sharp the edge of the plate is cut, as shown in the following examples:
Good edge Bad edge
goodedge_1.gif (10233 bytes) badedge_1.gif (10612 bytes)
goodedge_2.gif (10798 bytes) badedge_2.gif (11582 bytes)

Note: The above examples demonstrate the necessity for installing a modem with the Quantum machines (enabling the Response Center to dial in and help if necessary).
