nstallation Examples
The following examples illustrate the installation of a 5501A Laser Transducer System on a
three-axis machine tool (Figure 2-37) and a three-axis measuring machine (Figure 2-38).
The three-axis machine tool installation (Figure 2-37) includes the 10702A Linear Interfero-
meter and the 10703A Retroreflector. These measurement components were chosen because
they are the least expensive and meet all measurement requirements.
