EINSTAR calibration and two-position workflow
A 32-minute review showing calibration, a first scan, a second-position pass, more results and the workstation demands of a tethered EINSTAR project

Complete the workflow in order
- 01
Calibrate before the first project
Complete every requested board position and repeat any rejected pose instead of proceeding with an incomplete calibration
- 02
Create a controlled first scan
Use a rigid object, diffuse lighting and a steady distance so the first pass can expose tracking or exposure problems
- 03
Preserve overlap around the object
Move slowly while keeping previously captured geometry visible, especially around long edges and repeated surface features
- 04
Save the first position before moving the object
Finish a coherent pass, then reposition the object only when the project state has been retained for later alignment
- 05
Align the second position without forcing it
Use shared geometry or other documented alignment information and reject any result that produces doubled edges or shifted openings
- 06
Inspect and verify before export
Review raw coverage, fusion and mesh settings, then compare one known dimension and record the software version with the output
Do not stop at a green button
Check the result before relying on it
Calibration completes without a warning
The first and second positions align cleanly
Openings remain open rather than being filled by error
A known dimension and software version are recorded
