Volume determining device for object moved on frame conveyor i.e. tilting frame sorter, has sensor for determining frame geometry of frame and object geometry of object located in frame, where sensor is formed using common measuring process

摘要

The device (10) has an opto-electronic sensor (18) e.g. laser scanner and distance-close camera, for determining a frame geometry of a frame (14) and object geometry of an object (16) provided in the frame, where the sensor is formed using a common measuring process. An evaluation unit (22) determines deviations of the frame geometry to a reference geometry, and corrects the object geometry by the deviations. The sensor determines angle and distance of a reflected light. An independent claim is also included for a volume determining-method for objects moved on a frame conveyor.
