Abstract: The present disclosure extends to methods, systems, apparatus, and computer program products related to a cable-based measuring system. The cable-based measuring system includes a cable, comprising an inner cable member configured to move linearly within an outer cable housing. The measuring system also includes a measuring device configured to generate measurement information regarding movement of the inner cable member relative to the outer cable housing using one or more encoders. A computer system receives the measurement information from the measuring device. The measurement information indicates length as a function of time, and represents three orthogonal dimensional measurements of a three-dimensional object. Based on the measurement information, the computer system identifies a length of each dimensional measurement, including a length, a width, and a height of the three-dimensional object. The computer system then initiates creation of a box template sized to accommodate the three-dimensional object and/or updates a database.

Abstract: A hand-held OCTG length measuring apparatus has hollow upper and lower bodies, a hand grip extending generally downward from the hollow upper body near the first end and including a source trigger, and a sensor housing extending generally downward from the hollow upper body. The sensor housing encloses a TOF source operatively connected to the source trigger. The hollow lower body shaped to include a frontal cavity positioned generally under the source housing, the frontal cavity having attached thereto a pipe end alignment bracket. The upper hollow body and the lower hollow body connected at a lower end of the hand grip and at a lower end of the sensor housing. The apparatus employs a minimum 40,000 lux laser (at 18 to 25 feet) and a polarized, diamond-grade reflector, to afford reliable, repeatable OCTG length measurements.

Abstract: A method of measuring objects that are conveyed in a conveying direction comprises the steps that

(i) a first object edge of a conveyed object is detected at a first measurement position by means of a first optoelectronic sensor,
(ii) the first object edge or a second object edge of the object is detected at a second measurement position, which is spaced apart from the first measurement position in the conveying direction, by means of a second optoelectronic sensor that is spatially resolving at least in the conveying direction,
(iii) a time difference between the detection of the first object edge at the first measurement position and the detection of the object edge detected in step (ii) at the second measurement position is determined,
(iv) a transit time is determined in which the object edge detected in step (ii) moves through a predetermined measurement path,
(v) the object speed is determined based on the transit time and a length of the measurement path, and
(vi) the length of the object is determined based on the determined time difference and the determined object speed.

Abstract: In a dynamic scale and control method for flat goods transported on their sides, use an input-side first assembly for thickness measurement, a transport device having transport belts arranged on a weighing plate. A control processor starts a length measurement and the driving of the transport belts, and starts a thickness measurement and implement a dynamic weighing process during the transport of a first flat good. A next flat good is supplied to the input of the dynamic scale if a valid weight measurement result is present for the predecessor good, and ejection of the predecessor good or end of the weight measurement occur if a third sensor at the input of a takeoff device of the dynamic scale detects the leading edge of the predecessor good, and a check yields that no valid weight measurement result is present for the predecessor good.

Abstract: In a method and apparatus for length measurement of a flat good in a goods processing system having first and second stations, each having a sensor in the transport direction of the flat good, a control processor implements a path control and counts encoder pulses of an encoder in the first station. An event is determined by the sensor of the second station, and an associated numerical value Z1 of the encoder pulses is stored in the control processor, as is a numerical value Z2 for a distance between the two sensors is also stored. An additional event is determined by the sensor of the first station, and an associated numerical value Z3 of the encoder pulses is stored. As soon as both events are present, Z2 and the difference Δ=Z3−Z1 are added by the control processor, and the sum is used to designate the length.
