    Abstract: Cooling device (1) for cooling a seamless, rolled pipe (R) made of a metal, preferably steel, which has a nozzle assembly (10) comprising one or more nozzles (14), which are configured to apply a cooling medium (K), preferably water or a water mixture, to the outer circumferential surface of the pipe (R) while the pipe (R) is transported along a conveying direction (F) through a cooling section of the cooling device (1), wherein the nozzle assembly (10) has an access (Z), via which the pipe (R) can be removed from the cooling section in the radial direction of the pipe (R), preferably upward.

    Abstract: A device for measuring a wear condition on the plain bearing surface of a sensor plate comprises a measuring apparatus, which has wear sensors of a sensor plate integrated into the plain bearing surface. To capture the material removal at the plain bearing surface due to wear an evaluation apparatus is in signal connection with the wear sensors. The evaluation apparatus is designed, with respect to programming, in such a way that a change, in particular an increase, in the ohmic resistance value of the electrical conductor of a certain wear sensor can be captured in dependence on its own material removal, in order to thereby ensure that the amount of the material removal at the plain bearing surface and/or the remaining thickness of the plain bearing surface at the location of said certain wear sensor can be inferred from the detected change in the resistance value.
