摘要 |
<p>The invention relates to a method and a measuring device (1) for the contactless detection of the spatial shape of components, such as bent pipes and the like, wherein each component is gradually illuminated along the shape thereof by at least one light sensor (19, 20), preferably an LED, and the shadows cast by the component are detected by at least one light receiver (15, 16), preferably a CCD, thus initiating a measurement analysis. The data obtained in this manner can be transmitted to a processing machine (8), such as a pipe bending machine, either wirelessly (4) via cable (5) or by means of a USB stick (6). The measuring device (1) has a navigation system (30, 31), particularly with regard to the manual guidance thereof.</p> |
