MACHINE AND METHOD FOR ACQUIRING DATA FOR MEASURING THE TWIST AND CONCAVITY OF AGRICULTURAL DISCS

摘要

The machine is used to automatically measure both the twist and concavity of agricultural discs with a high level of precision. Currently, in order to calculate such measurements, dial indicators are used to investigate whether twist and concavity variables are within pre-established tolerances. This conventional methodology is slow and imprecise. In order to measure twist and concavity according to the invention, the agricultural disc is rotated and data is recorded along the periphery of the disc using a laser measurement device, by means of which a previously recorded central reference point is also determined, by comparing the resulting values in terms of height.
