摘要

Optoelectronic alignment controller for scanning geometrical lines and guiding a processing or machining tool or unit in accordance with the sampled lines. The controller has a light source for illuminating the scanning region, in the form of a light emitting diode that has an intensity of at least 3000 milli Candela. The light output is focussed using a lens towards the scanning region. The optimum light yield wavelength of the diode corresponds to that of the optimum light yield wavelength of a light sensitive detector.
